The perfect place to relax and enjoy the Kent countryside. We had a week of beautiful sunny days and amazing sunsets, the grounds of the property are truly lovely and we sat out every evening on the covered terrace enjoying a glass of wine and the sounds of owls hooting. The cottage was well appointed, comfortable and exceptionally clean and the generous welcome pack was a really nice bonus. Andy & Katie are lovely hosts and very welcoming, I wouldn't hesitate to recommend a stay to families or couples.

We had the chance of not only spending time in this incredible holiday cottage but also we got MARRIED in the beautiful grounds!! Andy and Katie never stopped helping out and moved heaven and earth to make our special day the most magical time! They are fabulous hosts and people The scenery and the grounds are a sight you would never get tired of; stunning! The cottages are homely, comfy and just what you need. Then let's talk about the kids....trampoline, football goals, massive inflatable slide followed by a zip wire that even the bride went down. We could not have had a more perfect day at Hamptons Farmhouse, Andy and Katie helped make the day so special! We had a lovely ceremony followed by the most fun party. It had a festival feel on the big open field, live band, food, pop up bar and ice cream van. It will be a day that lives with Sophie (my beautiful wife) and I forever. We have had lots of feedback from our guests that could not get over this amazing venue, place and scenery! One of our favourite moments was when everyone had gone home and we played cards in the court yard, chatting to the other guests and relaxing with a nice glass of vino! Thank you so much Andy and Katie for opening up your amazing holiday cottages, land and property to us! This has made our dreams come true and we will never forget it!!

Located within the grounds of Hamptons farmhouse, in a rural setting with some stunning countryside, Willow cottage was our 'temporary home' for 4 months in-between moving home and we were really made to feel 'at-home'. Andy and Katie were the perfect hosts (as were their lovely children), nothing was too much trouble and we were made to feel welcome from the first day till the last! As a middle-aged couple we loved it here, but if you have young children, love the countryside setting, as well as the rabbits, ducks and chickens and would like the children to have a free and easy adventure then this is the perfect place for a holiday! We will always look back with great fondness on our time of staying at Willow cottage, it exceeded all our expectations and the lovely memories will stay with us for a long time. I don't think we can resist a return!

Following a year of our house and back garden, we needed a change of scenery for our family break - however we didn't want to go too far, or be committed to going "out and about", so I searched high and low for a comfortable cottage with a spacious garden - and found exactly that in Willow Cottage. On arrival we were greeted very warmly by Katie who gave our kids and ourselves a grand tour, including the chicken coop, rabbits and new ducklings - which our kids absolutely adored! The garden is huge - beyond huge! So much space for the kids to run around in, climbing frames galore, trampolines and bikes/ride on vehicles to enjoy. We had a couple of days out in the local area - visiting Diggerland for our 4 year old digger obsessed son, Ashford Forest (Winnie the Pooh) walks and a short visit to the beach, but the rest of our week we spent enjoying relaxing in the garden. Katie and Andy were extremely helpful in answering any questions we had, and even re-inflated a bouncy castle they'd had out for a family birthday party, so my son could enjoy it for one day - which was magical! Their family were also extremely welcoming, and my son thoroughly enjoyed his time playing with them in the garden. The cottage itself feels bigger than it looks in the photos. Even with one bedroom, we managed with a travel cot for our daughter, our son had the double bed with a bed barrier to stop him falling out, and we shared the sofa bed in the lounge which was ample for us. Definitely added to our "we shall visit again" - we'll be in touch with Katie and Andy to see about their other properties on-site as whilst we managed with the one bedroom as our children grow up, two bedrooms would be ideal!

Willow Cottage has been a fantastic home away from home. It's comfortable, well equipped, and has lots of things to do within the gardens, but also the walks nearby. For kids, there are plenty of places for them to explore and play, and for the adults there's an open-sided barn with a seating and a log burner. Andy and Katie have been extremely hospitable to us and a delight to chat with. Would highly recommend any time of year!

Willow Cottage is a pretty and practical cottage surrounded by endless country walks and set in the lovely peaceful rural setting of Hadlow/Plaxtol. The grounds are child-friendly with a vast amount of activities for every age group and plenty of things for the adults to do as well. Our God children have enjoyed the trampoline, swings, sandpit, wendy house and they loved the chickens, rabbits and ducks. It will be wonderful in the summer but we were there for 5 weeks in November and December and weather was a little cold. The cottage is very well equipped with kitchen items and supplies, travel cot and towels and the heating is cozy warm, the storage is spacious and the full-sized sofa bed in the lounge is handy when friends stayed for the weekend. There was a very generous welcome package including eggs, milk, wine, bread and much much more which meant we didn’t have to do a shop for a couple of days. We were using Willow Cottage as a stop gap between moving houses but in the end it became a very nice winter holiday. Andy and Kate are such lovely hosts very friendly and helpful, nothing too much trouble. The peace and quiet was very much needed an ideal place to do as much (or little) as you want. There are lots of attractive places to visit in the area and Andy and Kate have obviously worked hard to provide quality accommodation with nice personal touches, if we were missing anything or needed information they came up trumps in a matter of minutes. We would highly recommend a stay here. Thank you Andy & Kate.

Our stay at Willow Cottage - Hamptons Farmhouse was wonderful. The house is cosy and inspiring and the farm is just amazing. Lots of play areas for kids, and nice walking routes to follow. Andy and Katie know how to make you feel welcomed and all their tips for local attractions were a plus on our stay. Can't wait to be back at Easter!

Willow Cottage was so well planned out that I felt at home the moment I walked in. Katie and Andrew had obviously taken great care in providing everything their guests could need. Kitchen was well equipped, towels were big and fluffy and the furnishings and pictures were charming. Definitely exceeded my expectations.

So pleased we found Willow Cottage for our stay in Kent! The cottage is clean, bright and spacious and has everything you need in the kitchen to make life easy, especially with a 2 year old. Lots to explore in the gardens and play equipment for children. We loved being able to get up and have something to do on our doorstep and saying good morning to the rabbits each morning too. Lovely welcoming hosts, who even took the time and trouble to post back a hoodie left by accident when packing to leave! Good location for exploring this part of Kent.

Beautiful, peaceful, rural setting with wonderful walks from the doorstep. The grounds and child-friendly (from very little to teenage) activities are astounding and vast. My teenage kids have enjoyed the very large trampoline (one of 2), swings in the trees, big zip wire, table tennis and morning greetings from the chickens and ducks. One week into our several month stay and we are still discovering new places to sit and new things to do. The cottage is really well equipped (kitchen supplies, heating, storage and more) and spacious for 2. We have used the comfortable and full-sized sofa bed in the lounge too, and short-term the cottage works for 4 as well. There is not a desk but the good sized dining table is working well for me to work at during the day. Katie and Andy are wonderful, welcoming and flexible hosts. Nothing is too much problem, for instance they have accepted mail for us and allowed us to invite family over for a few hours. There was a very generous welcome package including pears from the farm. We will be using Willow Cottage, and the others onsite for our future Kent visits, and expect family and friends will be doing so too. Thank you!

I have stayed here before.and am never disappointed.so much for children to play with,small animals, bouncy slide ,tennis ,zip wire ,trampoline.,tree houses.The adults have lots of walks to go on,and Andrew and Katie are very approachable and advise on local trips.Will definitely be going back again.

Lovely cottage very pretty and clean. Hosts were very friendly. It is a perfect setting if you have children there are lots of area's for them to explore. Loads of play equipment. Our Great grandchildren really enjoyed themselves when they visited. But it is very rural with narrow country roads. Not ideal for walking as the traffic is very fast. The Cottage could have done with a few more pots & pans, and it was a bit of a pain having to queue for the washing machine & tumble drier. We had a good time but the nearest pub was too far for us to walk so we had to drive everywhere which was not ideal for us.

We were lucky enough to secure all 3 cottages for a family get together and it was perfect for our needs. The cottage we stayed in had some issues with TV and WiFi but to be honest we’d gone for a week in the country, to spend time together and enjoy the surroundings so what did we need that for anyway?! The cottage was clean and well equipped- I have to say it helped that we had all three places so I advise befriending the neighbours if you don’t so you can do some borrowing of extra pans and kitchen equipment! The surroundings were amazing- a garden with enough to do to keep you entertained for a week and beautiful views and walks to be had. Also the hosts made us very welcome and accommodated our every need and having all of the animals around was a highlight for everyone! Would come again any time!

As you drive through the main entrance of Hamptons Farmhouse, you get a great feel for the holiday you will be having. A beautiful field full of games to play with trampolines, a zip wire and many other things to keep the kids entertained. The cottage itself is brilliantly stocked and so comfortable - I almost missed the snug that the kids could sleep in! Combined with the view of the back garden and the stunning former barn with somewhere to sit and chill or play table tennis. After you settle in, you can take a walk and meet the chickens and ducks that are often roaming free and make sure you say hello to Chuck the Dicken (a duck who is convinced he is a chicken, obviously) as well as the very cute rabbits. Just when you think you've found everything including the firepit by the classic caravan then you discover the treehouse and gnomes in the frivolous forest. I can't rave about this place enough as the whole site has so much to do and let you feel away from everything. The hooting of the owls in the evening just add to the whole feeling. Finally, Andy and Katie are the loveliest hosts and always available to help. My only complaint about the week we had there? Far too short.

Charming place, perfect holiday in the countryside. Lots of space and activities for children. The owners are very nice, also.

Das Cottage war wunderschön und sehr gemütlich. Die Farm hatte sehr viele Möglichkeiten für uns. Wir haben den Urlaub dort sehr genossen. Vielen Dank an unsere Gastgeber - auch für die vielen Aufmerksamkeiten in der Küche (Kaffee, Obst, Blumen, etc.) zum Beginn des Urlaubs! The cottage was beautiful and very cozy. The farm was very versatile for us. We really enjoyed the holiday there. Many thanks to our hosts - also for the many attentions in the kitchen (coffee, fruit, flowers, etc.) at the beginning of the holiday!

Hamptons Farmhouse was just what we needed and felt like the most amazing location for our family with so much to do on site, we didn't need to go anywhere else to have fun and relax. We have a son who turn 10 years old whilst we stayed and our hosts helped us make it a special birthday celebrations. They went above and beyond to help, even with odd requests for icing sugar. Nothing was too much for them. We also got given free duck eggs, which made superb birthday cake. I would recommend this place in a heart beat to anyone who needs a relaxing stay where the kids can play and keep busy whilst you crack open the vino or just put the kettle on.

All the cottages are very pretty. They are comfortable, well furnished and well equipped. On arrival there was a basic selection of provisions and a vase of flowers which was very appreciated and homely. The gardens are beautiful with plenty of out door eating areas. The rabbits, sheep and ducks are great to watch. There is so much for children to do at this place, trampoline, forts, zip wire, tennis, plenty of bikes and scooters. Katie and Andy are very welcoming. What is noticeable is that the children are free to explore and make the most of the activities without endless warning signs, restrictions or ‘no go’ areas. Would love to stay here again when in the area and friends who visited thought it was wonderful.

Set in lovely garden/grounds. Within an easy drive of numerous NT properties. The cottage is spacious and well equipped and there was a very welcome pack of basics and some luxuries to start us off. Andrew and Katie were very good hosts and all emails were dealt with very quickly and a lot of local information provided before the holiday. There was an incredible range of things provided for children and also table tennis for all ages.

My family and I stayed in the Willow cottage for a week and what a week it was. We loved every minute of our stay there were hidden cubby houses for the kids, bikes, toys, DVD's, animals you name it they have it. The whole experience was great from the communication, check in, local info and check out. We would definitely recommend this place for a country get away.

We have stayed in Willow Barn on a number of occasions and as ever a delightful place to stay with all modern conveniences for first class self catering break. We love that there is a comfortable bed, well equipped kitchen, and that it is cleaned thoroughly every week with change of linen and towels. Andy and Katie can’t do enough to make your stay as pleasant as possible. It was lovely in December when they went full out with Christmas decorations even providing real trees for each of the barns. We have enjoyed the Barn in all seasons and can recommend as a wonderful place to stay whatever time of year. Our grandchildren love it and they are made welcome and have free run of the beautiful gardens, surrounding fields and of course tennis court. They also get to handle and feed rabbits and ponies, and delight in the noisy antics of the ducks and chickens that wander freely around! Wonderful find that we are so pleased we came across.

We loved it here. The accommodation is first rate, idyllic for children and Andy is very friendly and welcoming.

Wir haben uns aller sehr wohl gefühlt an diesem wunderschönen, typisch englisch-ländlichen Ort, der doch so nah an London liegt, dass man ohne weiteres Tagesausflüge machen kann. In jeder Hinsicht sind unsere Erwartungen übertroffen worden: stilvolles, gemütliches Cottage, grandioses Spiel- und Erholungsgelände, super Service, schöne Atmosphäre. Wir kommen sicher wieder und würden jedem empfehlen, herzukommen!

Hamptons is located in the most beautiful part of Kent and has the most amazing views. Whilst staying there we enjoyed the peace and quiet and also the walks to the local pubs! We can recommend the Chaser and the Rifleman particularly. Katie and Andy and their children are exceptional hosts - nothing is too much trouble, they are so friendly and genuinely want you to enjoy your stay with them. We stayed in Willow Cottage which is perfectly equipped with everything you need if you fancy staying in and cooking after a day at the lovely local attractions. Hever and Leeds castles being favourites of ours. There is plenty to do on site as Katie and Andy have tried to ensure that there are areas for safe play for children with a little wildness in the woods thrown in. My husband enjoyed having a go in the small rowing boat on the pond with the kids as well as playing tennis, table tennis. One of the children's main source of pleasure is the electric mobility scooters! I can thoroughly recommend this beautiful holiday site so much so that I am returning for a long visit in September! It is also tempting me into visiting their French properties as well. If the standard is the same then we are in for a treat!

We had a brilliant time in Willow Cottage for 4 nights. The facilities for our 3 children (including our 10 month old) were great and it felt like a home from home.

Willow Barn is lovely and is decorated in a really charming country cottage way without being too cutesy. The bed is lovely and comfortable, lots of fluffy white towels, fresh flowers, and bright and airy. So much so we have booked for a further 4 weeks! The surrounding gardens are amazing and very child friendly and the more formal garden is beautiful. It has the most amazing willow trees and open barn that frames the beautiful Kent views. There is a lovely swing seat positioned just right for evening G&Ts and watching the sun plop behind the hills. A wonderful holiday location and the owners are delightful!

We (my husband, our 2 year old daughter and I) stayed at Willow Cottage for 4 weeks whilst building works were carried out on our home. The cottage and site are lovely and perfect for an energetic toddler wanting to explore. The hosts are welcoming and approachable and great efforts were made to make the site festive which went down particularly well with our daughter! I would recommend the site to anyone looking for a child-friendly holiday let or indeed anyone local who needs a home away from home as we did.

I've Just had the pleasure of spending a month at The Hamptons Farmhouse complex. Fantastic Fantastic Fantastic ! initial contact was amazing considering I had emailed at 10pm, this was then backed up upon my arrival when I met Katie and Andy (great hosts) The property is only 12 months old and is perfectly equipped for a weeks stay or as I encountered the complete month. The area is stunning and i would not hesitate to recommend to families with teenagers or toddlers. The whole site is filled with activities for all ages of children with safety in mind. I would also strongly recommend this to anyone who requires accommodation whilst working away/in between house moves and visiting family. You will not be disappointed.

Hamptons Farmhouse est l'endroit parfait pour des vacances en famille. C'est un paradis pour les enfants où ils peuvent jouer dans le magnifique parc arboré, faire de la balançoire, du trampoline ou s'inventer des histoires dans les cabanes. Pour les parents c'est le lieu idéal pour se reposer et profiter de la campagne verdoyante du Kent.

Took my daughter and grandson and we stayed in Willow Cottage which was well equipped and spotless. The facilities in the grounds were perfect for my grandson. There were tree houses, a zip wire, trampoline, and football nets.to mention but a few. The owners are friendly and helpful. We will certainly go back again.

This was our second stay in Willow Cottage - and we loved it as much as last year. Andy and Katie have gone out of their way to make us feel welcome once again! We have had a fantastic time, come rain or shine, exploring the gardens, tree houses, swings, slides, trampolines, zip wire....the list is endless! The children love it here (18 months and 3.5 years) and we will be booking to come again next year - so lovely - we definitely recommend it!

Our daughters love it here. We have had the privilege of experiencing this farm cottage in both the winter and the summer. Warm and cosy in the winter and airy and light in the summer. The setting and surrounds are fantastic, with great expanses, wonderful views and routes for walks, plenty of facilities for fun with a warm and inviting feel. We love it and would certainly be back in a flash. All amenities are available, quaint and clean inside and playful outside. We have no problem making recommendations for this beautiful retreat. Thank you Andy and Katy.

My family and I stayed at Willow cottage for a week in May. We were delighted with the stunning decor and beautiful surroundings. The cottage is fully equipped with a dishwasher and microwave and has all the luxuries you need. Our children loved playing outside on the zip line and also in the Wendy house. Our hosts, Kate and Andy are warm, caring and helpful. We would not hesitate in recommending Willow cottage to other guests. We had a truly memorable stay. A little slice of heaven.

Willow Cottage at Hampton Farm owned and run by a lovely couple Andy and Katie is one of the most idyllic, fun places to have a holiday. The setting is gorgeous and has so many magical things for kids to play on and do. The cottage is comfortable, practical and homely - easy to manage. We had our three year old granddaughter with us most of the time and she was constantly enchanted and never bored. Could not recommend this holiday venue more highly - it is just lovely.

My wife and I and our two young children had a wonderful stay at Willow Cottage. The cottage has character and everything we needed. We were made very welcome. The farm is in such beautiful settings and there was so much for the kids to enjoy. The area is lovely too. I would strongly recommend it - except on the dates we will surely return again!!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. We have been waiting for our home to be built, and continuing delays meant that we had to keep finding somewhere to stay. Willow Cottage came up, and for several weeks we felt at home - the family here are welcoming but not intrusive, and everything is in good working order - just what you need when trying to carry out normal everyday tasks! As a family holiday home there are beautiful walks in the area and a treasure trove of activities for kids. Being out in the countryside we were warned that internet might be sporadic, but we experienced no problems. Highly recommended.

My husband and I stayed in Willow cottage at the Hamptons, with our two boys (aged 3 and 5) in the first week of August this year. On arrival we were given a warm welcome by Andy, the owner of the cottages and one of his daughters showed us around, which was a lovely touch! The cottage itself was cosy, homely and very clean. My boys had the most wonderful time exploring the grounds. Each morning we would feed the horses in the neighbouring field and then our boys, who love animals, would visit the family's rabbits to pet and dote over. The cottages are surrounded by spaces ideal for children to run and play freely in. My children especially enjoyed playing in the hidden tree houses, whizzing along the zip wire and taking it in turns to row the boat on the duck pond. There was so much for the children to discover and do, we truly had an unforgettable holiday. Katie and Andy, the owners, have created an ideal place for a family holiday and the little touches dotted around, both in the cottage itself and the grounds, made it feel like a home from home. We have lots of happy memories from our stay and we look forward to staying again soon!

Willow cottage is the most beautiful place we have ever stayed. The views over the countryside are stunning. We have particularly enjoyed exploring the tree house with the children and the zip wire has been a firm favourite with both our children aged 7 and 3. There is plenty for the children to enjoy on site and plenty more to see in the surrounding area, including some lovely beaches. The Tanswell family are very welcoming and kindly introduced us to the rabbits and chickens on site which the children really enjoyed. Willow cottage is a beautiful place to stay we have had a wonderful family holiday here and hope to come back again. There is something here for everyone.

Wir haben im Frühjahr dieses wunderschöne Cottage gebucht, da wir sehr gerne Tagesausflüge in der Region unternehmen wollten. Es ist ein ganz süßes Häuschen, hübsch eingerichtet, mit allem was man so braucht. Konnten wir auch noch direkt vor der Tür parken. Und das Wlan funktioniert tadellos. Alles war sehr liebevoll vorbereit für unsere Ankunft, besonders haben wir uns über die Gaben in der Küche gefreut, Kaffee, Brot, Butter, Marmelade und was Süßes zum naschen...... es war ganz ganz toll. Frische Blumen und frisches Obst, das war ein wirklich herzliches Willkommen. Die Lage ist fantastisch, herrlich ruhig auf dem Englischen Land, und dennoch die nächste Stadt schnell erreichbar, genauso wie wir es uns gewünscht hatten. Für Kinder ein fantastischer Ort zum spielen und toben, auch wenn wir als Paar selbst keine Kinder haben, so liesen wir es uns nicht nehmen das wirklich liebevoll gebaute Baumhaus zu erkunden und zu bestaunen. Wir haben jeden Tag Ausflüge zu den Burgen und Schlössern der Umgebung gemacht, auch eine Tagesreise nach London. Alles ist schnell erreichbar, und im Haus findet man eine tolle Mappe mit vielen wichtige Informationen, die uns auch sehr geholfen haben. Es hat uns ausgezeichnet gefallen. Noch mal ein herzliches Dankeschön an Katie und Andy für den tollen Aufenthalt ! Absolut empfehlenswert !

We needed a four week base, while back from Australia, to visit family and friends with our four month old daughter. Hamptons Farmhouse has more than surpassed our needs and expectations. The location, surrounds, cottage and hosts are all just perfect. Katie & Andy have thought of everything and more. This truly feels like our home away from home.

Willow Cottage is a delight ... Clean and well equipped. It was nice to have items such as bread, butter, jam and wine ... Oh, and chocolates ... In the cottage when we arrived. Katie and Andy were terrific hosts ... Andy very kindly gave a tour of the property and was available to assist with any question or with tour advice. Speaking of which, the Welcome to Willow Cottage notebook was an excellent guide to local activities from shopping, to castles, to pubs, to the farm itself ... It is the best such guide we have ever seen in our travels and we particularly loved that Andy and Katie had included personalized comments regarding the places to eat and attractions ... Very helpful and much appreciated. While the farm caters to families - and we have no children traveling with us - the cottage and surrounding farm w

We had a fantastic stay. An excellent place for kids with lots of space to run around and things to play on. It has a very rural feel. The hosts are lovely and very welcoming

We are now into our 4th week, 2 more to go. Willow Cottage for us was an excellent choice in waiting for our new home in Shoreham Kent to be completed. The cottage is comfortable, cleaned throughout and linen change once a week. During half term our grankids came to stay, 12 and 9 enjoyed the farm collecting eggs, feeding chickens, sheep and play areas immensley, using a boat on the pond, climbing the excellent tree houses.. Good walks, pubs, places of interest on your doorstep. Owners, Andy and Katie ( who is very Kool !!!) are helpful, friendly, on hand for any problem, or advice. We would have loved to have stayed even longer, but unfortunately for us all the cottages are booked.

We honestly can't say enough about how much we adored the cottage and our stay. The overall exterior and interior of the cottage are picturesque and instantly made us feel at home. When we arrived at the cottage we were very warmly greeted and spoilt with some very thoughtful token food and drink items. The cottage itself is more well equipped then we could have imagined; we packed well, intending to have a peaceful and relaxing stay, yet we returned many of our own items to the car as everything we could have needed was already supplied. The grounds surrounding the cottage are stunning and also, well equipped for whatever mood you may be in. We spent many a night sitting on the swinging bench, overlooking the rolling views and watching the sunset with a glass of wine in our hand - how wonderful. We then spent some days relaxing in the garden, to the sounds of only the birds and nearby animals. We also had a few rounds of table tennis, which made for a fun stay. To top it all, each evening, after either cooking a home cooked meal or popping to a nearby pub for dinner, we slept as soundly as babies in the luxurious bedding, which certainly made it difficult to get up in the morning. Even though the weather was very English during our stay, this did not matter one inch; we came for a peaceful stay, some time out away from the bustle of the city lights and traffic and that is exactly what we got. We were incredibly sad to leave and will certainly be coming back at every opportunity. Thank you so much for a wonderful experience Andy and Kate; we couldn't have asked for more.

We stayed at Willow Cottage in May 2014 for a week and had a much needed relaxing break. We received a genuinely friendly welcome from our hosts Katie and Andrew who very obviously enjoy sharing their lovely property with their guests. Willow Cottage is a charming conversion fully equipped with all and more to make for an enjoyable stay – even comfortable pillows – wonderful!! The welcome pack of provisions was so thoughtful with delicious treats. It was a pleasure to return to the cottage after busy days visiting national trust properties and gardens – Kent has the best! To relax in the tranquil garden in the evening swas pure heaven. Although just myself and my husband visited this time, we intend to return next year with our grand-daughter (if we manage to get booked!) as she will have the time of her life with all that’s on offer for children at Hamptons farmhouse. Thank you again Katie and Andrew and we wish you and your delightful family a fabulous summer.

This is the first time that we have stayed in Hamptons Farmhouse but definitely not the last! My husband, 5 & 11 year-old sons and I stayed for 2 weeks at Willow Cottage and love every moment of it. The cottage is cozy, comportable and well-equipped in the wonderful grounds of the stunning view of the countryside. Our hosts Katie & Andy were so kind and helpful. My kids enjoyed playing tennis, zip-lining, running in the garden, exploring tree house etc. Fantastic place for kids really! My husband whose passion is road bike, had a wonderful time cycling up and down small hills around the neighbourhood everyday. Me, I loved taking a small walk in the garden, watching rabbits hopping and running in front of me. They were so lovely. Thank you very much Katie & Andy for your hospitality. We had such a great time staying here!

We had a wonderful week at Willow Cottage. I haven´t seen such a lovely and cozy holiday cottage accommodation before! It was so comfortable ,nice and clean and very well equipped with more things than we would need. All the little extras like the flowers in every room made us feel welcome and very much at home. We enjoyed breakfasts and sunset evenings outside under the trees. Our kids loved to play in the beautiful big garden with all the playground equipment, (they liked especially the trampoline and the long zipline), even after our days out in London. Andy was so helpful and friendly all the time and thanks for sending us our lost coats! Thanks Katie and Andy for a great stay!

Afgaand op de foto's en de positieve reviews, besloten wij onze tiendaagse vakantie door te brengen in Willow cottage, samen met onze twee dochters (3 en 5). Het was werkelijk onvergetelijk! Het landgoed met de eindeloze speel-en picknickmogelijkheden, het prachtige uitzicht, het fantastische huisje met alles er op en er aan (volledige uitgeruste keuken) en niet te vergeten het beheerdersechtpaar die je alle service bieden die je maar nodig hebt, onovertreffelijk! In werkelijkheid was het volgens ons nog mooier dan op de foto's, echt een eldorado. En wat ook heel fijn was; alle bezienswaardigheden en attracties waar we naar toe gingen waren grotendeels binnen een half uur bereikbaar, super als je twee kids achterin hebt die na vijf minuten al vragen of we er al zijn. Dit was een childfriendly holiday, maar absoluut ook adult-friendly

Nice quiet location with excellent clean and comfortable accommodation and plenty of activities for children. High standard.

Unsere Gastgeber kann man nur mit der Note "Sehr Gut! bewerten. Das herzliche Willkommen mit vielen leckeren Sachen war wunderbar, man hat sich direkt wohl gefühlt. Das Cottage ist sehr schön und liebevoll eingerichtet und lässt keine Wünsche offen. Vom Dosenöffner bis zum "Henry" (das ist der lachende Staubsauger) alles vorhanden. Sehr empfehlenswert, auch für Urlaub ohne Kinder. Wir kommen wieder!!!!

The cottage has been cleverly and beautifully converted. It is superbly well appointed and extremely comfortable. making it feel pleasingly spacious and light. The surrounding grounds are wonderful, full of enchanting delights, especially for little ones but also for adults. The trampoline, caravan, tennis court and child's car are all fabulous fun. And the setting is glorious, in stunning Kent countryside with superb views over the Bourne valley. The owners and their family are hugely welcoming and generous, making guests feel very relaxed. This is the best family holiday cottage we have ever seen. Strongly recommended.

Perfect location for london and to explore kent. Cottage was perfect very clean and modern. Andrew and Katie were very helpful and made our time there even better. The kids loved the open area and playing and feeding the chicken and sheep. Once again Andrew than you for your help

I stayed 4 nights at Andy and Katie's place and enjoyed it immensely. Although the cottage is hundreds of years old, the interior is brand new, very comfortable and fully equipped (including the kitchen). We made long walks through the countryside which is immensely beautiful, rustic, full of wildlife, and with an enjoyable sprinkling of welcoming pubs at comfortable intervals. Although part of a charming old farm, the cottage is totally private. Whilst I was alone this time (on business), I'll definitely come back with the family: with lots of space to run around the kids will enjoy the tree house, the animals (horses, chickens, sheep), the gipsy caravan, zipline and the camp fire at night!”

Don't miss the chance to stay at Willow Cottage. It is beautiful and offers a peaceful retreat. The cottage is equipped with everything you could want at a high standard. Would be very cosy in the Winter too. Wonderful hosts and in the area good eateries and places to ramble.

We had a truly marvellous stay at Willow Cottage, which is in a beautiful setting and perfect for exploring the Kent countryside with fun family trips to local castles and woodlands. It was a great hit with our five-year old and we look forward to returning!

Really peaceful and in a beautiful location. Access to lots of lovely walks and the grounds are amazing for children - our 4 and 6 year old have loved exploring all the play equipment and surrounding space. The cottage itself is well equipped, warm and comfortable and the Wi-Fi is reliable and fast which is a bonus. Access to the utility room with washing machine and dryer has also been really useful! Highly recommend
