  • Pretty holiday cottage set in a fantastic rural location
  • Surrounded by 30 acres of fields and close to the Royal Military Canal
  • Situated in the Kent Downs Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty
Property code: 54088

Situated in the Kent Down Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, this traditional cottage sleeps six guests and one dog. The location is ideal for those who enjoy the outdoors, offering great opportunities for their four-legged friend to get out in the fresh air. The cottage is surrounded by rural walks in the countryside, including a canal-side path, and you can also explore the coast and get some sand between the paws. On your return, throw another log on the fire, and snuggle into the sofa while your canine companion curls contentedly at your feet.

Original features abound inside the property, including brickwork and exposed wooden beams throughout. The spacious lounge, with its wood burner, soft furnishings and understated elegant décor is a dream. After a day out exploring, once the shoes, coats, and leads have been put away in the entrance hall, and any clothes or towels thrown into the washing machine, everyone will gather in the lounge to stretch out and relax in the warmth. There is also a delightful snug with its own TV. Each bedroom is unique in shape and style, with the same high level of comfort and amazing views. Cook up a storm in the quaint kitchen and dine at the long wooden table, or head outside and set the BBQ going – not forgetting a juicy piece of meat for Fido of course.

From the cottage there are plenty of possibilities for exploring further afield. The local village of Aldington is 3 miles away and as well as its selection of shops and cafes, be sure to take your dog to sniff out the Poulton Wood Nature Reserve with its acres of beautiful bluebell woodland. Beyond that, the port towns of Folkestone (13 miles) and Dover (20 miles) will provide your hound with a whole host of new smells and exciting cliffside walks: as long as everyone has a head for heights!

We had a wonderful Christmas holiday as a family. Thank you both so much. You had thought of everything and we had absolutely everything we needed for a cosy, happy, family stay (which is saying a lot for four adults and two children under 5)! We were warm and cosy.

We also enjoyed a couple of days' cycling!! Thank you again. Maybe see you next year. Hide

We had the most restful holiday in this beautiful, rural retreat. The silence was glorious and the wildlife abundant. The owners were wonderfully accommodating about keeping their dogs away from our unfriendly mutt and the secure garden took away any worries about her getting out into the neighbouring cattle.

We had a really pleasant stay at Marwood Farm Cottage. The cottage itself was easy enough to find and located in a rural spot with only the owner and a few other houses nearby. The Military Canal was about 100m away and provided for lovely walks in the evening. The house was large and spacious with a nice kitchen which had all the utensils and cookRead moreware required. Outside was an amazing patio and BBQ, ideal for a hot summers day. The garden was fully fenced in which was ideal for our little dog. Hide

Lovely cottage in a beautiful peaceful place. Ideally located for various sandy beaches. The garden was really lovely and the covered outdoor seating area with bbq was ideal. Toys and board games were provided The owners were very friendly and let us pick tomatoes from the greenhouse and herbs from the garden. Highly recommended.

We had a wonderfull time in the nice and tastefully decorated old cottage in a lovely garden with flowers, some vegetables and herbs at Marwood Farm. The owners are very friendly, everything is very quiet and so it's a perfect place to calm down by walking, cycling, going to the beach or visiting some interested places like Canterbury Cathedral, DoRead morever and its White Cliffs, its castle or other castles. Cycling isn't as easy as we thought, cause there aren't much cycle paths. Hide

Very spacious cottage which was ideally located to many attractions (many were within 1 hour of driving). Living areas catered for every need from a big garden to a reading snugs.

Nice rural location. Good sized yard for a toddler, along with the pub and park nearby. Nice property to walk/run in the mornings, well equipped house and big rooms. Might be too hot upstairs for sleeping if over 28/30 deg as fans only (no a/c).
