Winter Stay
Wonderful check in, super accommodating property manager and Staff, very responsive and receptive to all requests. Only critique I would have it was tough to keep the place warm in winter due to timer settings, we were always rather chilled, so pack accordingly. Dryer, we had to clean lint and heat pump filter to get it to work, I think cleaning staff should have been on top of that one. Wonderful, scenic area, would stay again in the spring.

Didn't want to leave
Hill House Farm is in a stunning location with incredible views and ambience. It feels a million miles away from all the recent craziness. At the same time there's lots to do in the area and access to Canterbury and other Kent towns is so easy. Check in/out was a breeze and the bread, milk and fruit bowl someone had provided on arrival was very thoughtful and appreciated. The house is tastefully and comfortably fitted out. No problem if the weather keeps you indoors, I could spend the whole day in the lounge gazing out of the windows at that view. The extension was my favourite room with nothing but windows on three sides. Another highlight was the amazing range cooker and farmhouse kitchen. We spent many hours cooking happily for everyone in there. I think we were quite lucky to have booked this place just as we're beginning to emerge from the lockdown and hope to come back in the future.
