We had a wonderful serene two night stay in this tranquil cottage. We read books and chilled out. The cottage was lovely and the hospitality was second to None with a homemade loaf and wonderful accompaniments. We will recommend to all our friends who need a reset in the beautiful peace. Thank you again for everything.

This is now my escape from the world place, lovely and quiet and the occasional visit from the cows makes such a welcome reminder of being deep in the beautiful countryside. Its quiet and relaxing gazing across the fields. Bring you tea and milk get your dinners ordered from Mrs.B no need to move. There is a couple of local pubs near by not testeRead mored by us. Tenterden has lovely shops and coffee shops, worth a couple of visits, the Grape vine is especially nice. Imogen and Phil are lovely hosts and have thought of everything, we extended our stay by another week. Lovely local walks with dog, Hothfield woods is close by and a good walk. Hide

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay, delightful area with loads of walks. Beautiful outlook from the lodge and everything we needed within it, including some generous baking from the owner and some other goodies awaiting our arrival. Would go back like a shot.
