10/10 Excellent

"Our first break in Kent and a wonderful introduction to the sights. The Cottage was very easy to find and the location does not disappoint. Everything you need is provided and of good standard. Plenty of local shops nearby to stock up and many local footpaths to explore. Evenings spent sitting outside were wonderful and lots of wildlife to spot. When we eventually had to bid the Stable farewell, a fantastic break and great memories were ours.Thank you."
