What a lovely place to stay at. Clean, functional and with everything we needed. Friendly and kind hosts. So lovely to spend time with the animals, feeding the chickens was the highlight for our 3 year old! Quick drive to Canterbury and the shops, and best to lots of the attractions and things to do. We'd love to come back!

Wonderful and cozy Cottage. Plenty of space for a family of 3. The location is also great, for being out in the countryside, but fast access to Dover and Canterbury. But also other places like Margate, Deal, Sandwich are not far. The kitchen is pretty much equipped with everything. We did not missed something. Milk, own fresh eggs, bread and cookieRead mores have been provided up on our arrival. The owner lives next door and have been so friendly and helpful during our stay. Wonderful place Hide

We had the most amazing time at the cottage! The owner was so kind and friendly and allowed my kids to get involved with the animals on the property. The lamb bottle feeding was a highlight as well as the delicious vegetables provided to us at the end of our stay. Could not recommend this cottage enough!

We had a great stay at the Oast House cottage. Mrs. Sutton surprised us with fresh eggs from the farm, milk and bread. This felt very welcome after a long trip from the west of Cornwall. Anything you can think of is available and all rooms are at a single level. Location near Canterbury and Dover is perfect.

The cottage is in the centre of Kent, 5 miles west of Canterbury, which was great for exploring Kent and visiting Canterbury. Cottage was bright and airy, very clean, and free eggs. Large spacious bedrooms with plenty of storage for clothes. Had a great week.

A very spacious cottage, much more spacious than we expected from the pictures on the website. The cottage was clean, well equiped and we never before slept on such good beds (even much better than our beds at home). The hosts, Virginia and Peter were very kind and helpfull.
