Absolutely charming cottage and lovely garden — we wanted to move in and stay forever!

We (two families with teenagers) have had a wonderful stay in Woodchurch. Chris is a great host - he made us feel welcome in his house. Even before we arrived, thanks to his messages with explanation about the house & surroundings. We hope to visit this house again - in the spring or summer - so we can walk the public footpaths in the area. And enjoy the beautiful garden that belongs to this wonderful cottage. We loved it.

Wonderful stay in every way. We'll be back!

That was the unanimous vote from our 2 children and their partners this year when we met together from different areas of the U.K. and spent a week at this idyllic cottage. Beautifully maintained, super comfy beds and duvets, spotlessly clean and so cleverly laid out for a family gathering. (Although my husband and I arrived a few days early and we loved having the place to ourselves too!) Chris was a superb host, we had all the information that we needed and he even decorated the house (with beautiful taste!) and put a tree up for us! In the words of one of our children after the first night there "I think I've just spent the night sleeping on a cloud". They loved the comfy beds so much that they wanted to know makes of the mattresses and toppers as well as the luxurious duvets and pillows. There is every amenity you can think of in this place. The garden with it's fairy lights was lovely in the evenings - although we only viewed it from the warmth of the open fires inside as it was too cold to go out! 2 pubs within walking distance and lovely walks nearby. I'm a decent home cook and brought lots of my own kitchen utensils with me but I really didn't need them as the place was so well equipped. I do have cooker envy I must say. I can't recommend this place enough to prospective guests. You really won't regret your decision!

Having pulled up outside the Old School House we were so thrilled with our choice. A bit of a tussle with the key pad and then - we were in! What a delight to walk through this cosy, tasteful and beautiful home beneath ancient beams and through gorgeous oak doors. Having rented MANY cottages over the years, this one stands head and shoulders above the others. Every comfort was considered- a fantastic range of spices, sauces and cooking appliances, sumptuous beds and piping hot water on tap, also an easy to control heating system - we couldn’t have asked for more BUT WE GOT IT! The cottage comes with Chris as a host, and what a host he is. He answered our few questions quickly and explained things in ways that two elderly ladies could clearly understand. I must confess we both hoped to meet him in person, as he sounds such a colourful and interesting character. Sadly this was not to be on this trip but in the future......? We enjoyed the hamper and have brought the English Sparkling Wine home with us for another special occasion (as one of our fellow guests had very kindly brought enough champagne to toast many more birthdays than the 80th we had gathered to celebrate) Woodchurch put on a show for us with Morris Men dancing in both pubs, the butcher's lamb was excellent as was the coffee shop. Jez at the local garage cured the car problems out with a big smile, and again, full explanation for these two old birds. What a week!

There`s no need to repeat, what others have said before, but the house is extremely charming and tastefully furnished, while the historical charm is combined with all amenities you need. The garden is lovely and very well maintained. On top of that the village is idyllic and the pubs just around the corner are definitely worth a visit to relax after some sightseeing. So all in all that`s a gem and a perfect place to explore Kent. We really enjoyed our stay.

Beautiful country cottage, furnished to a high standard in a lovely quiet village. Tranquil well maintained garden next to a church. Fully recommend.

Outstanding house in a beautiful location. We have been to plenty of cottages over the years and this is far the best one we have ever stayed in. We were all sorry to pack our bags to come home.
