  Positives: Clean and nicely decorated, extra sofa bed if two single occupants arrive, well-stocked with equipment and mod cons.

  Negatives: The picture of the garden, that is used as the primary selling point, is misleading. The last autumn's leaf fall had not been raked up, the furniture was old, tatty and falling apart. The garden has had about three years of usage since established (according to the guest book entries), and it looked like no-one was bothering to maintain it. It was a big disappointment, as we had expected to see something more well-maintained like the picture. No guestbook, and occupant information like an updated wi-fi password or local area information was clearly displayed/provided. We used a clearly displayed sign for the Wi-fi password which was out of date, battled with it for half an hour, and eventually had to go and knock on the door of the main house to ask for the information. Eventually, we found informational items tucked in behind the TV, a day later. We felt that it was a bit of an oversight to not make the location of these much clearer or to update their sign. We felt that the owners of the accommodation could have attended better to the small things, and the garden was a big disappointment.

  A lovely studio with everything you need for a few days break in the relaxing Kent countryside. Rachel couldn't have been more helpful and we were grateful for everything she did to help us. The surrounding villages are beautiful and a visit to The Bull at Benenden is a must. A word of advice though, if you want to eat there you must book in advance, such is its popularity. If you decide to take a walk across the fields we suggest you take an OS map. We got lost and the phone signal is sporadic at best. Our thanks to a lovely lady who came to our rescue, she helped us on our way, walking part of the route with us and she was there at the end of our walk to make sure we reached our destination safely. All in all we had a lovely time and will definitely return to this idyllic part of the beautiful Kent countryside.

  The Barn Studio was the ideal setting for a relaxed week away from the normal day to day hubbub. The property was ideally equipped to accommodate the two of us, having everything we needed, it was nice to have the choice of shower, or bath in which to relax after a day exploring the Kent Wealds. Owners, Rachael and William made us feel very welcome and were happy to suggest places to visit if we wanted. We enjoyed the relative quiet of the area and were lucky to have some lovely sunny days as a bonus. Most places we wanted to visit were easily accessible and within a reasonable driving distance. Bodiham Castle and Rye were particular favourites of those places we visited. Highly enjoyable break and we headed for home feeling nicely chilled out.

  The only reason I didn't give 5 stars throughout were that it wasn't obvious from the description there was no oven - only realised a couple of days before the holiday when reading reviews.

  Not a problem as we mostly ate out but I normally heat up a pizza the first night so was glad to have found out in advance so I could adjust plans. Also, tv has no signal - we realised from guest book that others had same issue so didn't complain, just watched Springwatch on the tablet instead. Might be worth letting people know there may be an issue so they can bring devices. Apart from that, a superb place with the most comfortable bed we've ever slept in, clean, quiet and beautifully decorated. Very handy for numerous attractions and just a couple of miles from a railway station for a day out in London or the coast.

  The Barn was an excellent choice for our week in Kent.

  Great situation, very quiet, parking, lovely patio area. The cottage is VERY comfortable, has everything you need. The two en-suites are excellent. The host is very helpful and provided us with a basket of goodies on arrival, much appreciated. Lots of interesting information in the folder that was in the cottage and we accessed several of these. Close to many attractions especially NT which we used. All in all I would thoroughly recommend The Barn and give it 10/10. Should I be returning to this area of Kent, this would be my first choice. Thank you for making our holiday unforgettable.
