Guests say
Pilgrim Cottage is a beautifully decorated and maintained property with a peaceful garden, comfortable beds, and a well-stocked kitchen. It serves as a great base for exploring nearby attractions. The cottage is spacious, with a sunny garden, and is praised for its comfort and comprehensive amenities. Parking can be challenging, but the location is generally quiet, especially at night.
The cottage is described as 'brandschoon' (spotless), indicating a very high level of cleanliness throughout the property.
The location is appreciated for its proximity to attractions and quietness at night, although the mention of a busy road during peak hours and lack of parking suggests some inconvenience.
Guests find the beds comfortable and the cottage spacious, offering a pleasant stay. The balance between soft and firm beds is noted, enhancing the comfort level.
The property is well-equipped with a blender, dryer, and ample towels, among other amenities. However, there is a mention of fluctuating water pressure in one of the showers, which slightly affects the score.
While the reviews highlight the well-stocked kitchen and ample amenities, there is no mention of gifts or extra thoughtful touches that would warrant a score in this category.

Lovely cottage, beautifully decorated and maintained with a peaceful garden out back. Comfortable beds and stayed cool even on a really hot day. Kitchen well stocked with all you would need. Only downside was the lack of parking nearby.

Heel comfortabel en in alles voorzien. Er is nog meer dan in de advertentie aangegeven aanwezig namelijk; een blender, droger, wc-papier, kinderbedje en meer dan voldoende handdoeken en keukendoeken. Ook staat er een keukenkastje helemaal vol met kruiden en overige kookbenodigdheden. Het huis ligt aan een doorgaande weg dat tijdens de spits wel druk is op de momenten tusen 08:00 tot 10:00 en 16:00 tot 18:00 uur. In de avond en nacht is de weg en de omgeving zeer rustig. Hele aardige buren aan de zijkant en overkant. Hele fijne bedden, tusen zacht en hard in. Het zijn duidelijk twee aparte woonkamers. Er zijn twee *******, één douche zit in het bad, deze is wat minder prettig omdat de waterdruk hier soms wegvalt waardoor de temperatuur niet constant blijft. Ongeveer 500 meter verderop, richting Hollingbourne is een speeltuin voor kinderen tot 12 jaar met voetbalveld waar je goed met de auto kunt parkeren. Op 1000 meter is er een pub in Hollingbourne genaamd Windmill met goed eten.
