  We had a lovely week at Paddock View.

  The nice weather was a welcome bonus! Lesley and Steve were very friendly, and helpful hosts. The welcome basket was a lovely touch. The bedroom on the upper floor was very spacious and comfortable, with an en-suite. Good quality bed linen and towels. The downstairs area is open-plan, and spacious enough. However, we found the settee uncomfortable for anything more than 10 minutes The rental property is situated at the rear of the owner's home, accessed through the gardens. The photos in the listing include several images of the owner's property as well as the rental accommodation. Parking was a bit of an issue; there wasn't a dedicated space per se, and we had to shuffle spaces with the hosts' vehicles to gain access or exit. The use of the sun room / conservatory, like the gardens, were subject to the hosts not using them. Luckily, this was never an issue for us. The washing machine and laundry facilities are in the owner's house subject to a small charge for use, and consequently, to their being home!

  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.

  I think overall Ella’s loft is a great place to stay and I enjoyed my week away.

  The bed was very comfortable. Kitchen has everything you need. The homemade muffins were a nice touch. The hot tub was one of the best I’ve used. Definitely the highlight of my week. However it’s clear that the photos advertised were taken when the place was new. In my opinion it could do with a spruce up. Cracks in the bathroom floor, plaster coming off of the walls. It was pointed out to me that the blind in the bedroom was broken and being held down by wire, surely this is something that can easily be replaced? The Wi-Fi didn’t work at all during my stay, I reported it and was told the router had been reset but it still didn’t work. I had to use my own mobile data to watch the tv. I was only provided with one toilet roll and had to ask for more when that ran out mid stay. I don’t think this is something guests should have to ask for. I don’t like to leave negative feedback but there are just a few things that were missing for me to make this a five star stay.

  What a wonderful little gem in the Kentish countryside.

  We absolutely loved our stay here. Almost in two minds whether to leave a review as the selfish part of me wants to keep this place secret. Located in the beutiful town of Godmersham, Ella's Loft is a great base for either a relaxing weekend away or a week of exploring all the wonders Kent has to offer. Lots of lovely walk or cycling options straight from your doorstep. The hosts Steve and Sheila were wonderfully friendly and accommodating. They invited us for a walk one night and they let us explore grounds of the gorgeous Godmersham Hall with them and their two very lovable dogs. They gave us loads of great recommendations and Steve's baking was something else. The loft itself is very homely and well equipped. It's perfect for a couple. The hot tub is a wonderful luxury we ensured to make the most of during our stay. On our last night we were even lucky enough to see a meteor shower. We will definitely be looking to return in the future.

  On the listing they have failed to mention that this property is actually located in their front garden.

  The only privacy you will get is in the actual cabin. You can see and hear the owners when you are in the hot tub. One of the owners was making a loud noise by chopping wood. Their daughter and granddaughter had arrived and they were loud. This isn’t mentioned on the website but it is mentioned in the welcome pack (after you’ve paid and arrived of course). They refused to give me a refund even though we left a few hours after arriving. I left because I couldn’t relax with the feeling of being watched. I was seen as I was walking to the hot tub and I’m very self conscious of my body because of my scars from having cancer. I will definitely be taking this further. I am so upset.
