A perfect setting in the North Downs countryside and a great location for exploring this part of Kent. The cottage is quirky in design but is more spacious than expected from the photos. It is well equipped and very clean.

We had a wonderful time here - wish we could have stayed longer! The owners were really welcoming and helpful. The peaceful and beautiful setting was just what we needed after a very full on time at work. The cottage is well equipped but also furnished and decorated in the most delightful way. There is a lot to do locally and some wonderful woodland walks. We hope to revisit next year.

Beautiful cottage in an extremely peaceful location.
Beautiful cottage in an extremely peaceful location. The decoration and layout of the cottage are lovely, unusual and so thoughtful. The views from the deck and the birds in the tree are wonderful.
It would be even better if there was a comfy sofa and a well stocked crockery/mugs/glasses cupboard.

The property was just as described on the advert and well supplied by the owners. Communication with the owners was brilliant and they were very helpful with any requests that we had. Although the location was abit tough for driving due to the narrow country roads, the locals were very friendly and welcoming. Overall I would recommend staying at this property if anyone is in need of a welcome break. P.S. views were amazing!

The cottage is perfectly placed for visiting coastal areas, Canterbury and clise enough to Dover for a day trip tp France. Coming from a medium sized town we found the narrow roads challenging. Nevertheless we managed to get about each day. The peace and tranquility made the holiday.

Very peaceful location with lovely views exactly as described. Seemed remote when we arrived but once you are used to the very narrow roads, doesn't take long to get anywhere. Furnishings interesting. I loved the pedal aeroplane. Would have loved it as a kid.Good choices of local eateries. Ask the owners for a look at the vintage racing car if possible. We very much enjoyed our stay although it took a while for our dog to realise what sheep were.

Rustic.
Rustic.....but quite romantic is how I would best describe this cottage.
If you are looking for something luxurious maybe it's not the place for you, but if you like something slightly quirky, with a bit of character and charm (not to mention lovely views across the valley to woodland beyond) this probably fits the bill!!
Run by a lovely couple too.
