Summary: Lovely, small and cosy cottage. I stayed during a storm and thanks to the wood burner the cottage was warm and cosy. The bed is comfy and it’s super quiet for a good night‘s sleep. The big walled garden must be amazing to sit in in the summer! Canterbury isn’t far and the nearest beaches are only around half an hour drive away. There’s plenty of hiking opportunities, too. I’d love to come back.
