    What our customers say about their holidays

    • Geoff - Verified booking

      Gary and Lucy were wonderful hosts, most helpful, without intrusion.

      Their two dogs Bobby and Jess, 3 Shetland ponies, rescued chickens, squirrels and the regularly visiting foxes were a joy to see each day. Bobby, sometimes accompanied by Jess, visited each morning to have his ball, stick or pine cone, thrown across the lawn, which he duly retrieved and nosed towards you for another go. The accommodation lacked nothing that we could have wanted, and a regular walk through the owners adjoining woodland was much appreciated. So quiet with only the sound of birdsong to break the silence. Within 20 miles are numerous places we visited, , Chartwell (Churchill’s home), Ightam Mote, Chatham Dockyard museum, Upnor Castle, Leeds Castle and Knowle Castle all worth a visit. Our week there was over too soon and we wish them every success.

    • Caroline - Verified booking

      We have had a lovely holiday at Badger View.

      Gary and Lucy are perfect hosts and so friendly and their lovely garden filled with wildlife that keep you gazing for hours! Not forgetting their two lovely dogs who are such fun. There are so many lovely places to visit and being RHS and NT members we have visited Sissinghurst, Hyde Hall, Chartwell, Emmetts Gardens, Ightham Mote and Wisley and lovely Biddenden vineyard. We even managed to find time for a game of Bowls at Borough Green and the club made us most welcome. Woodlands garden centre is a must, a great independent garden centre with a restaurant - Twig and Spoon for fabulous food. You may need to book! Although we have done so much on our holiday we have left plenty more for a return visit. Looking forward to seeing you both again soon.

    • Paul S - Verified booking

      What wonderful hosts Lucy and Gary were, they were lovely, warm, friendly people, and particularly the two friendly border collies Jess and Bob, so obedient and also affectionate.

      The house was very welcoming, spotless clean and very comfortable in the most beautiful location to either stay in or go out. The house was well provided for as we love to cook, all the crockery and cutlery you needed was available. There is so much to see and do here, we are in both NT and EH and for this you are very well provided for. The scenery around about is pretty and easy to get to places with good roads. We also visited Canterbury a place we have wanted to visit for many years and it lived up to its expectations, beautiful. Thank you so much for all being lovely we will be back to what felt like our little oasis in the clearing of the woods. Kind wishes ti you both hope to see you again Kath and Paul XX

    • Beverley - Verified booking

      We cannot recommend Badger View Highly enough, a really first rate property!

      Gary and Lucy are the perfect hosts. The property was sparklingly clean with quality furnishing and fittings and they provided us with everything we needed for a wonderful stay over Christmas. (Thank you for our Christmas card!) We especially loved the location, wonderfully secluded, nestled in private grounds, with only the lovely little horses, birds and cheeky squirrels to keep us company, it offered us much needed peace and quiet, absolutely perfect. A bonus was, we knew Gary and Lucy were always on hand for any enquiries, which they answered promptly. We're really looking forward to staying there again next year. Colour us impressed. Thank you both! Beverley and Matt :)

    • Janferie - Verified booking

      This was a wonderful choice: A very comfortable home away, nicely planned and decorated, and with everything we needed on hand.

      There are lovely surroundings with woodland and wildlife offering interest and beauty, but there is no sense of isolation, as there are many tourist destinations and metropolitan facilities in easy reach. The owners are excellent hosts with just the right balance of concern for our wellbeing, and respect for privacy, We loved their two beautiful dogs, as well as the fresh-laid eggs provided from their chickens, and really enjoyed the peaceful environment they had created within the large grounds of their property. We found the whole experience immensely relaxing and restoring and would unhesitatingly recommend this holiday let to all.
