We had a fabulous week staying at Kingpost. We stayed during one of the hottest weeks of the year so the heated pool, bbq and firepit really enhanced our stay. The house was well maintained, full of character and charm but with all modern conveniences. We can definitely recommend Kingpost and it was perfectly located for us to explore Battle, Hastings, Rye and the Kent and East Sussex railway.

We absolutely loved our stay at Kingpost! It was perfect for us. The house is cozy, and charming. There are so many toys and books, our kids loved the little library under the stairs! We all enjoyed the pool and appreciated that it is behind a gate so we never had to worry with the kids running around the garden. We spend most of our time outside as the weather was lovely but we would have had just as an amazing time if we had spend more time inside. The area is also charming and we can all only recommend staying here!

An enjoyable holiday

We enjoyed a wonderful family holiday with our children and grandchildren. We made good use of the well equipped kitchen and comfortable rooms. We all enjoyed the pool and relaxing garden. We rode on a steam train, visited Bodiam Castle and the rare breed centre. It was our second visit having found how perfectly it met our needs last year. The owners are extremely supportive and friendly. Thank you

A great holiday

We appreciated the well equipped property. Well set up for children to enjoy. Exactly as described and suitable for multigenerational occupation. Although some of the adults found the mattresses on the soft side. We were three generations of family and friends. The pool was a high point for all. Lots to do and explore in the area. All in all we had a great holiday.

Perfect family holiday

Kingpost was the perfect place for the 10 of us including 4 young children. The space was amazing and was very comfortable for all the adults as well as the kids. The pool was a Godsend especially as it was very hot when we stayed and the little ones loved all the toys inside and also in the garden. I think they would happily have stayed there all week but we did enjoy some of the wonderful local places of interest, knowing that after a busy day a refreshing dip in the pool awaited. Lovely place, lovely village and lovely area!

A*

A lovely old house. We all felt at home as soon as we stepped through the door, the house was well equipped throughout from the kitchen to the toy cupboard. All the beds were comfortable with quality linen and towels. Lots of hot water and clean bathrooms. The children were totally wowed by the trampoline, wendy house and secret library. The pool of course was a main attraction, it was clean, safe, warm (we chose to pay for heating) and well maintained, we even met the friendly pool man. There was plenty of room for our party of eight, the property is more roomy than the photos indicate. The village store was well stocked and the pub is just across the road. . . Everyone was happy. We would not hesitate to recommend this house, and hope to return one day soon. Thank you Martha and family.

Wonderful Stay In Beautiful House

Overall, we very much enjoyed our stay in your house and used it as a great base for a holiday. Positives: 1. Lovely character inside and out 2. The pool was nice and warm, which was essential considering the weather 3. The garden is a well-equipped lovely space 4. Very well set up for children 5. Great, well-equipped kitchen space 6. Great location for exploring area and also local pubs – went to the Bull twice. Negatives: 1. The furnishing in the living room are very dusty and a little old, two people in our group have dust allergies and reacted to the soft furnishing, anti-histamines were required. 2. The TVs are small and dated. The Sky box is also out of date, you could probably get Sky Q box upgrades for free now. A newer TV (and/or new Sky Q box) would allow guests to use built in apps to use their own subscriptions, e.g. Netflix, Amazon Prime & Disney+. 3. Internet – I appreciate that you may not be able to do anything about it, but the internet was slow (compared to what we're used to) and doesn’t cover the whole house. For example, the sky box in the master bedroom was updating all week, and only started working on our last night. 4. A little maintenance is required, e.g. the back door is scraping a little against the kitchen floor, the cabinets next to the fridge are sticky. 5. The welcome pack should include the manuals, had to dig around for those to work out how to get the fridge/freezer colder and work the oven. The welcome pack doesn’t state the rubbish collection day, had to Google it. None of these negatives stopped us from having a great holiday in a wonderful character property.

Kingpost Review

Kingpost is the most beautiful old house with great character and charm. You might expect small rooms because of its age but in fact the rooms are all a very good size. The living room is big – we had 6 adults and 4 children happily congregating there without feeling cramped. The downstairs bedroom is enormous and the kitchen is perfect for a big group. We were able to get all of us round the table but could have used the bigger table in the hallway if we’d wanted to. The bedrooms upstairs were again all a good size. The beds were very comfortable and the linen sparkling clean. Both the bathroom upstairs and the shower room downstairs are a good size and there was never a shortage of hot water. Outside was good for our grandchildren – all under 5. They enjoyed the trampoline and the Wendy house as well as the slide, swing and seesaw. Their favourite was of course the pool which was beautifully warm and clean (a pool man came round while we were there to clean it). There were also plenty of toys both indoors and outdoors to keep them happy. This was our second visit to Kingpost and there were a few things that were a little tired this time. For example, the trampoline looked a little unkempt and when 2 of our children (aged 5 years and 3years) jumped on it, it moved about a little too much (we have a trampoline at home so know what flexibility there should.) The football left in the garden had strips off it, although you could kick it around. In the kitchen, the frying pan had scratches on it so everything stuck to it and one of the saucepans had been put back dirty. The plastic outdoor glasses looked very old and not very clean. There were only 2 t-towels which wasn’t enough for our weeks stay. These are only small things that would cost very little to replace but would make a big difference. Moving on to location – it’s great. There’s lots to do for children. We went to the Rare Breed Centre, Camber Sands, Hole Park, Bedgebury Pinetum, There are loads of wineries to visit and a trip to Hastings isn’t far.

Beautiful house and a great location for a family holiday. Perfect for a summer break in the UK.

Lovely house, pool is great and it is in a fantastic location. Near the coast and surrounded by great pubs for dinner and things to do for the whole family.

Heaven

I cannot say enough good things about this little piece of heaven. Nestled right in the middle of the charming village, with 2 pubs in walking distance. The cottage is larger than we anticipated and the pool is perfect. Martha could not do enough to make our stay memorable - we just loved every minute

Fabulous house in a great location.

We had a wonderful week here. The house is better than we had imagined, very well set up for guests. The rooms are spacious and comfortable, the gardens are gorgeous and the pool made it just that but more special. Great area too with so much to do in the day and some lovely places to eat nearby. Recommended.

Wonderful holiday

We thoroughly enjoyed our week stay. The house is spacious, comfortable, full of character, beautifully appointed, and we could have easily moved in forever. The pool was a big hit with the kids, the garden fantastic for all ages. The pubs were a very short walk, and Kingpost was close to lots of attractions — castles, manor houses, gardens, outlets. Tenterden nearby had a big Tesco when the local grocery wasn’t enough. Internet was slower than what we’re used to, but we brought our own. Otherwise, just a wonderful family break during the pandemic.

Kingpost is a beautiful house, bursting with character and history. The facilities were great with plenty of toys and games for the younger children. The pool was a huge plus for the whole family with such scorching weather. We had a couple of lovely meals at The Bull, barbecues and fish and chips in Dymchurch. A fantastic family holiday
