Reviews

A beautiful place to stay: well- and thoughtfully-equipped, spacious yet cosy, spotless, and with a very helpful owner. In a quiet rural location but within easy reach of the coast and many other interesting places to visit. Good local pub. A great, relaxing last-minute getaway

Mr A,

The cottage was roomy , well equipped and very clean. The host was very friendly and helpful.

Mr R,

We found the Pump House at Hern Hill to be ideally located with plenty of space to park. The kitchen/diner was well stocked and had all the equipment needed. The King size bed was comfortable. Having a tv in the bedroom as well as the lounge was a bonus especially as Netflix was available with programmes we wanted to see. The clealiness is first class. The Rose and Crown is just minutes from the property so is ideal for eating and drinking. The owners are also very helpful.

Mrs H,

Previous Customer,

Very clean and well equipped. Good location for north and east Kent.

Mr W,

Great location very close to local pub! Short drive to Whistable, Faversham and Canterbury. The cottage was well equipped, very clean and comfy. Excellent shower. Plenty of storage. Also very warm during a very cold spell. The owner who lives nearby was helpful and very accommodating.
