A relaxing stay
We had a lovely break at Hop Cottage. The setting is so relaxing especially sitting in the hot tub looking out over the lake and watching the wildlife. The hosts were very friendly and helpful.

Absolutely lovely!
This beautiful cottage was ideal for us (three generations and dog) as it had everything we needed. Lots of space, lovely views, peace and quiet but also only a short drive to local towns, pubs and shops with Whitstable and other beaches just a little further. The cottage was really clean and tidy, the beds comfy and cosy and the garden was very safe for our dog as the owners had secured the fences and there was plenty of space for him to run around. A big plus for us was the jacuzzi with some wonderful views over a little lake with lots of birds and wildlife to watch while relaxing. The owners, Wendy and Nigel, were so helpful right from the moment we booked and answered all of our queries really quickly about the local area etc. Once we arrived we had a lovely welcome visit from Wendy who showed us around the place and made us feel really welcome. We are already planning our next visit to this hidden gem within the next few months for our next fix of relaxation. Thank you so much Nigel and Wendy, it was perfect! 😃

Family holiday
Very good overall, only one or two minor issues eg. electric shaver points not working, would have liked at least one change of towels and grass in garden needed cutting by the end of our stay.

Lovely Location
The property was lovely - perfect spot. The ONLY downside was that you could hear children in the next cottage in one of the bedrooms. Other than that it was great. Well equipped, tidy and clean. The hot tub was great and the ping pong table kept the kids amused. Scenery was idyllic and very quiet location.

A lovely relaxing stay
We all had a very relaxing time at Hop Cottage. We had everything we needed and even amazing weather too! Nigel was extremely helpful on our arrival as it was late and he checked we arrived safely with his clear directions. It was great to be away from it all at the same time as being able to travel easily to many lovely destinations. Thanks to Wendy and Nigel for our amazing stay in Kent.

Not impressed at all and definitely not 5star like you as you described it
I will be sending you some pictures. Conservatory: dirty frames and torn curtains. Spare toilet has never seen a bit of bleach for a long time. Games room unfinished. Garden not kept. The water does not run quick enough in the bathrooms sink. The surrounding is fantastic but the cottage did put a damp on our holiday It is definitely not worth what we paid for it for a week. I think you should also need to mention that there are no taxi about.
