This newly built holiday cottage (June 2023) overlooks the Potmans Heath and the Rother Levels to the west of the picturesque village of Wittersham with far reaching views of the idyllic Kent & Sussex countryside. Explore the nearby historic towns of Tenterden (5 miles) and Rye (8 miles), with their quaint cobbled streets and medieval architecture and the National Trust properties of Small Hythe Place (2.6 miles), Sissinghurst Castle (10 miles), Scotney Castle (12 miles).

Families will enjoy a visit to the nearby Kent & East Sussex Railway which runs from Teneterden to Bodiam Castle stopping at Wittersham Station which is only 1 mile from the cottage.

You are welcomed into the spacious, relaxed countryside inspired property with open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner that overlooks the garden with a large comfy corner sofa and two armchairs arranged around the wood burner and Smart TV. This is a fantastic space for getting the family together or just perfect for curling up on a chilly afternoon and enjoying a good book. The kitchen area has been thoughtfully designed with everything you may need for whipping up delicious family meals before heading to the dining table. The ground floor offers three bedrooms, all of which have a Smart TV: two super king-size zip n link bedrooms (that can be made into a twin on request), one of which has an ensuite shower room and patio doors that open up to enjoy the garden. The remaining bedroom is a bunk bedroom (small single mattress). The ground floor is completed with a family shower room and a handy utility cupboard. Heading upstairs there is a large games room with a multi-functional games table that offers pool, air hockey, and table tennis – perfect for keeping everyone entertained on rainy days. At the opposite end of the room is a Smart TV and a day bed that can provide additional sleeping for two guests with an additional single trundle.

Patio doors lead out into the fully enclosed garden which is a delight to spend time in and soak up the sunshine.

This has to be the best cottage I have ever rented.

My wife and I chose Moon Cottage for a much-needed getaway to rest, recuperate, and re-charge, and we truly couldn't have asked for a better holiday to fill the bill. Ian and Louise have created an oasis of quiet comfort in the Kent countryside, the perfect spot to light a fire in the wood burning stove, curl up with a cup of tea and a good book, aRead morend relax. We cooked in the professionally-equipped kitchen, lounged on the comfort sofa and took in movies as night settled over the Kent landscape, and explored Tenterden and Rye during daytime forays. We have stayed in many holiday lets around the world over decades of travel, and none were better equipped and maintained than Moon Cottage. The only regret was not booking for a longer stay, but I expect we'll rectify that with our next booking. Many thanks, Ian and Louise. Hide

Im already feeling Moon Cottage blues after our short break I booked to spend quality time with my mum,dad & their dogs and the owners were very welcoming into their beautiful cottage the magic was walking in to it being decorated for Xmas & little extras cookies & marshmallows it felt luxurious with the decor, the underfloor heating in the shower Read moreroom to the cosy sofa in front of the fire not to mention the location which offered lovely country walks with our English setters to the stunning sunsets & moon view early morning. The games room was an extra I have always enjoyed playing air hockey with my Dad so it was fun to find it there & have a game. I was already sending photos to friends whilst there as wanted to share what a truly amazing cottage it is so I highly recommend to anyone thinking about it. We all enjoyed our time in Moon Cottage.

This property was AMAZING! best rental Ive ever stayed in!

Were already wondering when we can go back! Only slight criticism is the bathroom door is broken (we didnt alert the host at the time, Im sure theyd have rectified it if we did) and if you shut the door you got locked in - this needs to be fixed. Also, the hot tub is wood fire and we tried for hours to get it warm and kept the fire going but it didnt heat up, maybe its due to the weather being too cold for this to work. Overall, couldnt recommend this place more! Thanks so much for such an amazing place to stay for a weekend! Hide

The cottage was finished to an extremely high standard where the owners have thought of all the different equipment you may need to make sure your stay is extra special. The games room and smart TV was excellent considering the weather. Having an enclosed garden is very important knowing the dogs are safe.

Well, how wonderful was that? From the moment we arrived having travelled through picturesque Kentish countryside and villages, to the morning we left, we were charmed by Moon Cottage. We stayed during glorious weather so were able to make the most of the garden. However, with a cosy and welcoming interior we can imagine coming back during the winRead moreter and cosying up in the lovely open plan kitchen, dining and living area complete with wood burning fire. My husband loves his smart TV at home and is seldom happy with IT provision when away but the smart TV with excellent sound system provided all the entertainment we are used to at home. We also loved the Nespresso machine and multi-purpose games room. With a secure garden we were able to let the family dog explore outside The well equipped kitchen was impressive but apart from breakfast we found plenty of pubs to enjoy for eating out. The Ferry Inn was particularly good. We feel there is much more to explore and enjoy in the area so plan to return for another short break later in the year. Hide

As one of Moon Cottages first ever visitors we felt very privileged. It is absolutely beautiful and I loved the interior design. The finish, fixtures and fittings are all exquisite, no expense has been spared. The towels, beds and bedlinen are sumptuous. We only used the ensuite shower but it is the best shower I have ever used. There are some gRead morereat touches like laminated local walking routes and binoculars. The owners really have thought of everything. The weather was incredible during our stay and the view from the garden is amazing. I saw sheep, cows, a heron, rabbits, swans and a hawk diving for prey. Early on Sunday morning two hot air balloons were in the sky. It felt so peaceful. I could have stayed forever. We went into Rye and loved the cobbled Mermaid Street and antique shops. We had a pub lunch and then took the dog for a walk on Camber Sands. The beach is absolutely beautiful. We cant wait to return. We went to two other local pubs for great meals, The Ewe and Lamb and The Kings Head in Rye. There is so much to visit in the area and we will definitely return in future.
