We had a delightful stay at Woolstore. The cottage was very comfortable with a nicely stocked kitchen where we cooked each evening. We appreciated the walk-in showers as well as the comfortable beds. It felt homey. The location was excellent as it was just a two minute drive or a short walk to Sissinghurst Gardens. Pauline and Peter take great priRead morede in their property and it shows. I enjoyed my conversations with Pauline. Thanks again! I would definitely stay here again. Hide

Lovely accommodation in an excellent rural location. Very suitable for our party of 3, including a 95 year old with reduced mobIlity. 2 bedrooms and bathrooms meant that we all had some space and the lounge provided a comfortable communal area. There was also a bench and seats outside to enjoy the peace and tranquility. There was a good Wi-Fi conneRead morection. The cherries and juice from the farm were a thoughtful welcome gift. All in all a lovely holiday and we would visit again. Hide

Our second stay and we loved it just as much - if not more - than our first time. The cottage is very comfortable and extremely well appointed. The views across the Wield are fantastic and accompanied by the bleating lambs and the chomping of the ewes. Fantastic. Very convenient for the many gardens and historic houses of this part of Kent (and a sRead morehort walk to the wonderful gardens of Sissinghurst Castle), and less than an hour to the beach at Hastings. Definitely recommend this cottage. Hide

Wonderful place to stay. Views across the green fields were lovely. Very clean and comfortable. Loved having the sheep outside our door. You need to drive to pubs, cafes. Local sites though were very accessible. Having 2 bedrooms and 2 ensures provides great privacy for 2 couples.
