Brimming over with character, this beautifully restored 13th-century roadside cottage in the pretty village of Eastry is an absolute delight.

After dinner, sink into a sofa by the wood burner in the original inglenook fireplace and catch up on your favourite TV shows.

We wanted a charming English cottage, and thats exactly what Gore Cottage is. Theres a rustic charm to the place, and while we mightve worried about the creature comforts in an older building, we found the internet, heating (in February), and all else were in great shape. It was clean and comfortable and an all-around pleasant place to unwind that Read morewas decorated with care. Its location is also great in a central area for exploring Kent, and the village businesses were good. Would recommend! Hide

Gore cottage is a lovely place to stay, it had all you need for your stay and a great safe garden for the dogs. Not far from the village centre which had a good pub, bakers and butchers, also a post office and general store. Easter is a great location to explore East Kent, with good roads to Sandwich and Deal also out to Ramsgate and down to Dover.Read more Would recommend a visit especially if you have dogs. Hide
