  Lucy was fantastic, she was friendly and obliging over text and helping me get in.

  The Hut itself is a beautiful thing. I was able to cook easily and one can make the space quite toasty of a chilly evening if you so wish. Its on a very pretty farm; I enjoyed seeing Velvet the pig in the morning from the bathroom window and loved the horse who would often approach the enclosure out of carefree curiosity. The Hut door faces the sunrise. As I was there to meditate and relax, I was delighted to discover the open to public spiritual gardens and yurt of "The Quiet View" only two minutes up the road (give it a google). I really enjoyed the country lane and woodland walks the surrounding area had to offer. I was surprised how quiet and left to my own devices I could get as its only 7 miles from a city. I popped into Canterbury for the Cathedral (and Tesco) and it was only 20 mins on the bus with a £2 card tap. That said, a breezy walk into next village Barham has quite a nice shop and Bishopsbourne the other way had a nice pub and cafe. About 150m up the road from the Hut was a blue plaque for the Sculptor Henry Moore who lived there in the 30s (for any fellow nosy art nerds out there!). A really gorgeous stay, I shall return.

  The owners were very helpful and available when we called or texted them.

  The cottage was clean. The location of the cottage is within a shared area with neighbouring cottages and hot tub and a swimming pool. The cottage was very nice for a short stay however few improvements needed. - Provide guides/instructions for the property (we didn’t notice there was a freezer at the back of the kitchen counters until the end of our trip) - The heating was not working. It was very cold the first night as we only had one electric heater. After asking the owners we noticed there was a spare fan heater. - The cottage could do with a coffee table by the sofas for when you want to watch TV and eat. - Pathways to the cottage could do with some lights as it gets very dark in the evening and it is a long walk from the entrance of the property. Having to use mobile flash light can be difficult when you have bags to carry. - We were expecting there to be basics like salt/pepper/sugar/milk but none was provided given the price we paid for the stay. However basic kitchenware provided.

  Perfect midweek break, located centrally for several fabulous historic gardens we wanted to visit. This is a stunning, simple but modern cottage with two bedrooms that each have an en-suite toilet cleverly connecting to a shared shower; fully equipped kitchen diner and lovely spacious sitting room. There's a small patio with gorgeous views across the garden, and parking outside. The owner thoughtfully provided some basic provisions: bread, butter, eggs, milk etc. and made contact the day we arrived. The owner has written a very useful house guide and made some good recommendations for local shops, vineyards, restaurants and attractions to visit. This cottage is perfectly located for visiting properties such as Chartwell House, Sissinghurst Castle, Great Dixter, Bateman's, Pashley Manor, Hever Castle and Sarah Raven's Cutting Garden. The maximum distance was about 40 minutes drive time to the furthest we visited... are there are so many more to see!

  We had such a relaxing and pleasant stay at Little Bourne. The cottage is in a lovely location, convenient for all the beautiful historic places to see, with the added bonus of being 5 minutes from Tonbridge Village and 10 minutes from Tonbridge Wells where you are spoilt for shops. The cottage was clean with every facility you could want and more. There is a car parking space allocated for you with simple entry to the cottage, 2 lovely bedrooms with en-suite to both. The kitchen was well equipped, also with a small dinning area. There was a spacious living room leading to a private patio area - superb! Karen, the host could not do enough! she was easy to contact and easy to talk to, friendly and helpful. We will be back for sure!

  We spent an excellent time in this lovely cottage in Kent for a week in August. The host Karen, who lives near by the cottage, was very kind and helped us a lot. The reception was great, they made us find a basket of fresh food for breakfast the next day. The house is very pleasant and has all the comforts. Our 12 year old son enjoyed jumping in the bouncy net. There is also a ping pong table. Waking up with the green of the surrounding meadow and the chirping birds is priceless. Beautiful walks start from the cottage. Also in less than an hour by car you can reach beautiful places like Canterbury or Brighton. Around there are interesting restaurants of English, French and mix food and nice pubs. We hope to return soon.
