Guests say

Guests consistently praise the Kentish Barn Retreat for its cleanliness, comfort, and serene location. The property offers a range of games and outdoor equipment, adding to the enjoyment of families. The hot tub is a highlight, though one guest mentioned an additional cost. The approach via a gravel track was noted, but not a significant issue for visitors. Overall, the retreat is highly recommended for a peaceful stay with lovely views and a responsive host.

Reviewers are very pleased with the cleanliness of the property, describing it as 'really clean' with no negative comments on this aspect.

The location is frequently described as peaceful, private, and beautiful, with easy access to Canterbury and other attractions. One minor concern was the unmade road leading to the barn.

Guests found the barn to be comfortable, with special mentions of the comfortable beds and the property feeling like home.

The property is well-equipped with games, outdoor equipment, and a hot tub. However, one guest mentioned the hot tub being a bit pricey, and another noted the unmade road as a maintenance issue.

While guests appreciated the range of facilities and the host's responsiveness, there are no specific mentions of gifts or extra thoughtful touches that would warrant a score in this category.
