Hazel Tree Cottage. A secluded country retreat.

4.98 out of 5 average rating, 119 reviews7 months ago

A lovely few days at Hazel cottage. The cottage was clean, light, very peaceful and it had everything we needed to make it a home from home. We enjoyed a couple of evening meals in the garden, some lovely walks along the North Downs Way with some very nice lunches at pubs along the way. I felt very comfortable allowing my dog to roam around the garden, which was very secure - he met his first hedgehog there l. Claudia and her partner were very friendly and welcoming. We’ll definitely be back.

Romantic woodland cottage

4.93 out of 5 average rating, 117 reviews7 months ago

Fischer’s cottage is a wonderfully tranquil getaway in a beautiful part of Kent. The cottage was very comfortable, with everything we needed in the kitchen and a magnificent wood burning stove in the living room to keep us cosy on a slightly chilly Summer evening. The garden was a delight and allowed our two-year old daughter a great space to play. We even made use of the BBQ and outdoor wood-burning stove. D was so helpful with directions, recommendations of where to visit and which pubs and restaurants to eat at. We would certainly come back again.

Charming historic cottage in the North Kent Downs

4.99 out of 5 average rating, 178 reviews1 week ago

Lovely cottage, very clean, beautifully decorated and spacious. Fully equipped with everything you need for your stay. The area is stunning, you come off the busy motorway to within minutes being in a rural very peaceful setting which was perfect for a short little break away for our family and 2 little dogs. We had some lovely walks and the local pub only a 10 minute walk away was also excellent and very accommodating. My only negative was that the garden was not managed and quite over grown. The weather was lovely and we sat outside for breakfasts so it was a shame that the same attention had not been paid to the outside space, which i do feel is important. This aside Lulu was a great host and we had a fantastic break away, I would definately recommend.

Out stay at Lily's place was absolutely amazing, there were so many extra touches that made it really comfortable and special. The kids especially loved the Easter decor and the Easter eggs that Lily left for them! The beds were super comfortable and everything was spotless. We've already booked for our next visit to Borden :)

We’ve just returned from a short 2-night stay at Sue’s lovely Whitstable cottage, and our only regret is that we hadn’t booked to stay for longer! Everything about our stay was just great - the cottage itself is exactly as it appears on the listed images, and it’s a really lovely property. Very clean, beautifully decorated and in a prime location to take a short wander into the heart of bustling Whitstable, which is such a lovely coastal town, with an abundance of independent stores and fantastic places to eat, drink and unwind. We loved our stay at Sue’s cottage, and Sue was a wonderful host, offering detailed and thoughtful communications prior to our stay. We definitely plan on a return visit to Whitstable in the future, and would stay at Sue’s cottage again without hesitation.

We had a lovely stay at Gina’s cottage. The house was perfect for our needs and beautifully decorated. We didn’t use the garden, but did go & have a look. It would be a great space on a sunny day. The location is really handy for the high street & parking was easy. We went by bus to Folkestone & the bus stop was nearby.

Wow! What an amazing home. So much bigger than the photos give it credit for. Easy to find and walkable to town, beach, shops and restaurants. The home had everything we needed and an extra fridge was welcomed as a family of five! The beds were extremely comfy so we all slept soundly. Ellie has been responsive, helpful and always replied to my emails quickly. Thank you so much for letting us stay in your beautiful cottage, and for letting us bring our four-legged friend too! Broadstairs is amazing!

What a little gem in the heart of Broadstairs. We felt so lucky to stay in the cottage which was so pretty. It's right in the middle of everything happening in town but also tucked away so it's not too noisy. The house itself is gorgeous with so much character. Thanks for an amazing stay!
