Very comfortable and well equipped. Lovely garden with loads of birds and bees.
We enjoyed our stay in the old dairy, it's the ideal size for 2 people and by using the local buses there is no need to take your car out all the time.
The Windmill is very nice but it's wasted being open for only a couple of hours on a Sunday afternoon.
Margate is rubbish but the shell museum made the trip worthwhile and everywhere else we went was very nice to visit, our favourite was RAF Marston Museums.
