    What our customers say about their holidays

    • Confirmed Guest - Verified booking

      We had a wonderful week at Pound Hill Cottage. The photographs barely do it justice. The cottage is beautifully decorated and very well-equipped with everything you could need for self-catering. There was a bottle of apple juice (with home grown apples) and biscuits to welcome us; with milk in the fridge and fresh flowers on the dining room table. The bed was really comfortable, and we loved the bathroom with walk-in shower. There was an abundance of storage space. It was lovely to sit out on the patios watching the variety of small birds on the feeder, and we saw rabbits on the lawn in the early mornings. In general, it was a truly peaceful and relaxing holiday setting. The location is excellent, within easy reach of great places to visit and you can do several walks from the doorstep. The village of Headcorn is 3 ½ miles away and has a well-stocked Sainsbury’s local, butcher’s, bakery, deli, coffee shops, pubs and an Indian restaurant which also does take-aways. Overall, we would absolutely recommend this cottage and hope we may return at some point.

    • The M Family - Verified booking

      We stayed in the Rosebud House for a week and it was very pleasant. The place was very clean when we arrived and we had a lovely pamper box with tea, coffee, shortbread etc. which was so nice. Also few bits of cleaning products were provided. Although the house is small it was enough for 3 of us and had everything we needed. All kitchen stuff were brand new. When we arrived the TV wasn't working and was replaced within couple of hours!!! In the end we had a much bigger and better one. The service was so quick and helpful. The location is fine and not far from a shop, bakery, cafe, pubs and the beach. To improve the place it could do with less squeaky floors, more outside lighting as the outside seating area had none, the kitchen fan being installed more safely and the living room area lighting being less bright. It wasn't dimmable and was either very dark or extremely bright.

      We booked this property for a weekend break 2 friends and a dog. It's an area we were unfamiliar with but wanted to explore. We found the property, Fernwood, exceeded our expectations, it was warm, light and welcoming with a lovely outlook onto the woods behind, perfect for bird watching from the sofa and for great dog walks. The kitchen /lounge was lovely and the beds were really comfortable. The shower was great too. In fact we felt so relaxed here we didn't do as much exploring as planned. However we did enjoy a trip to the vineyard, pottering in the nearby village and loved Sissinghurst which is National Trust and a great day out. Its a place I would happily return to and visit some more National Trust properties.

      What can I say..? our home for a week was perfect. Beautifully appointed and presented, from the welcome basket of treats to the bottle of wine in the fridge. Fernwood, is a wonderfully converted barn/workshop backing on to glorious woods with a carpet of Bluebells beneath to the rear off the decking with friendly wildlife of squirrels and Woodpeckers and then wonderful gardens to the front. We were looked after by our hosts Charlie and Mary who were on hand with recommendations and assistance, but respected our space too. Plenty of dog walks, plenty of places of interest nearby to visit and some perfect pubs close by serving wonderful food too. Indeed a fabulous Rural Retreat!! 🥰

    • Confirmed Guest - Verified booking

      Fernwood sets a very high standard both as regards the property itself and its furnishings and equipment. It's a real home from home and does not feel like a rental at all. The welcome hamper provided by Charlie and Mary was full of good things, the bird feeders were filled so it almost felt bad to go out and leave the relaxing outlook into the woods! The property is extremely well positioned for visiting lots of National Trusts, Rye, or just enjoying the wonderful countryside. Good shopping at Tenterden is a short distance away, whilst car enthusiasts should not miss the Morgan museum in Rolvenden. In all, we heartily recommend Fernwood and would not hesitate to stay again.
