We stayed in the barn at the end of the driveway. It has its own private patio and use of the grounds and pool.
The barn itself was clean and well equipped with views across the countryside.
The check-in was non-contact which is perfect for me as I'm clinically vulnerable.
The welcome box was a nice touch.
A perfect, peaceful place to relax while visiting family in the area.

Lovely cottage in beautiful surroundings.
Lovely cottage in beautiful surroundings. Found a few cobwebs still in windows on arrival but some can be expected due to being isolated.
Would have been nice to know in advance that the ‘house rules’ say you can’t leave your dog unattended before booking as it prevents meals out as a couple during your stay.
Could do with a slightly larger more comfortable sofa but other than that everything you need. Lovely stay

Everything we needed was there and the barn was immaculately clean.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would definitely recommend.

A fabulous little barn full of character. A great base for exploring Kent and all its attractions. Great if you have a dog as the North Downs way is right on the doorstep so lots of local walks.

The cottage was a great location in Kent, central for lots of places to visit.
The cottage was a great location in Kent, central for lots of places to visit. It was very comfortable and an extremely peaceful location. The welcome pack was a lovely bonus. The swimming pool was excellent and very private , loved the pool. Would definitely recommend to others as a little slice of heaven. The nearby pub ‘the dirty habit’ served excellent food there or takeaways due to lockdown.
