Description

The Old Stables is situated in the heart of the quaint village Hernhill, alongside the village green. It is the perfect pet friendly retreat for couples looking to get away from it all with plenty of walking and exploring opportunities right from your doorstep. There is a great pub within walking distance which is also dog friendly and serves great food and great beers. The local area is abundant with fruit trees and hop fields yet it is close to the city of Canterbury and Whitstable with its famous beaches. The open-plan nature of the cottage offers a cosy living experience, with an outside dining area for those warmer al fresco evenings with French doors leading to a decked area in the pretty courtyard garden. The Old Stables can also be booked with its sister property, The Pump House, for two couples who want to holiday together but have their own private space. This property offers a real home from home feel with everything you could want to enjoy a holiday here in the Garden of England.

Reviews

Excellent accommodation, great welcoming pack & idea place to see this part of the country

Mr B,

Lovely cottage in a beautiful quiet village. Ideal for visiting Canterbury, Faversham, Whitstable and further coastal towns. The cottage is well equipped and super comfortable, would highly recommend to anyone wanting a relaxing break.

Mrs G,

Really clean and comfortable accommodation with everything you could need for a self catering break. Fantastic dog walks around the orchards and a lovely traditional pub across the road, good access to Whitstable and Fakenham only a few miles away

Mrs W,

Good location, lovely cottage, spotlessly clean and very well equipped, helpful and friendly hosts.

Mr L,

A lovely cozy place to stay with all you need, the standard of decor and cleanliness is superb. Hernhill is a lovely village with a superb pub just across the road that serves excellent food.

Mr W,

Very welcoming with a clean cosy atmosphere. Great location for exploring North Kent

Mrs C,

Nicely situated cottage close to Canterbury, Faversham, Leeds Castle, Belmont House, and other interesting places to visit. The location is also very convenient for hikes in the Blean Woods or the Kent Downs. The cottage was exceptionally clean, and we were warmly welcomed with refreshments. Tea and coffee were also provided. Additionally, the Red Lion pub, which offers delicious pub food, is just a stone's throw away, making dining out convenient during your stay.

Mr V,

Lovely, clean property and lovely hosts. Excellent pub with great food 50m from your door. Lovely walks from your doorstep too.

Dr S,

Great location with a large parking space for one car. The secure outside patio is a great sun trap. The cottage is opposite The Red Lion pub. The pub is dog friendly, offers great food and has a very well maintained beer garden. The train station at Faversham is not too far away and has adequate parking. One day we caught a train to London Victoria for a quick visit to the capital!
