The property was very comfortable and well equipped. It is also very peaceful, and it was lovely watching birds and foxes in the garden. The location is excellent in terms of ease of getting around the area where there is much to do and see. The private footpath leading onto the coastal path was great, with superb coastal walking. In summary a great holiday cottage in a lovely location

Lovely, quiet surroundings near the coast.

Near walks through woodland to the coastal path, and a short walk from The Smugglers, pub with good food and beer, in St Margaret's.Property had plenty of space for four staying, and one occasional visitor. Comfortable and clean.There was a wedding on the Saturday, but it didn't disturb us at all.

First impressions 'Great' spacious and quiet beautiful surroundings.

Our experience was all good. James was readily available anytime we called him (once) the swimming pool was gorgeous! The horses gave us hours of entertainment watching them. Along with the rabbits first thing in the mornings. We will be back!

Wir haben als Familie mit 3 Kindern 3 Tage in "The Barn" verbracht. Es war die schönste Unterkunft in England während unseres Urlaubs. Das Haus war sehr sauber und für uns perfekt. Es gab Wanderwege direkt vom Grundstück abgehend welche uns zu den Steilküsten und an den Strand führten (ca. 20 Minuten). Unsere Kinder genossen es die nähere Umgebung zu erkunden und die Pferde zu beobachten. Die Nähe zur Fähre nach Dover (18 Minuten mit dem Auto) war auch optimal. Einkaufmöglichkeiten (Lidl., Tesco) waren mit dem Auto schnell zu erreichen. Wir würden gerne wiederkommen und dann sicherlich länger bleiben.

Clean, comfortable stay

We spent a weekend in the cottage. It was clean and adequately furnished. Quite countryside with some great walking trails all around. Well worth the money and would strongly recommend if you are looking for peace and quite.

Entspannung und Wohlfühlen pur

Wir haben uns hier richtig wohl gefühlt, auch wenn wir nur 3 Nächte hier waren. Mitten in der Natur und trotzdem alles, was man braucht. Und dazu noch Pferde, Hasen und Füchse direkt vor der Haustüre. Der Strand ist ca. 20 Gehminuten entfernt, das Auto kann man also getrost stehen lassen. Einkaufsmöglichkeiten und Fähre in unmittelbarer Umgebung! Kommen gerne wieder, sobald es uns auf die Insel zieht.

We all had a lovely week, the cottage was perfect for our needs and the hosts were very friendly. We would definitely use the cottage again. Only negative was the upstairs shower which was too weak to be of any use and everyone used the downstairs ensuite. Found some lovely walks and visited the coastguard on the bay almost daily. Many Thanks Troy and family
