What our customers say about their holidays

  This is a fantastic and interesting property with plenty of room for the six people who stayed there for a week. It is a 0.75 mile walk to the pub and good village shop, otherwise you will need a car to explore. We were disappointed not to find a welcome pack of any sort at the house. In other properties we have stayed in there has been milk in the fridge, tea and coffee available, and maybe cake and biscuits or some other local produce, and on one occasion, sparkling wine, custom coffee mugs and fridge magnets! Here, there was nothing except 4 old looking coffee sachets in a scruffy jar, and 3 dishwasher tablets. There was barely enough washing up liquid to last the week, and none of the waste and recycling bins had been emptied the previous week. There was no paper and card recycling bin available. The collection day changed while we were there, so this needs to be updated in the home manual. This is not a cheap property to rent, and if we had had a long drive to get there, would have been very disappointed to have to go back out just to get something as basic as milk. The above criticism is not to put the property down, it is a stunning place and has been well thought out for holiday letting, and is highly recommended by us, but we feel that it has some customer satisfaction issues to resolve.

  Lovely cottage in a great location. Very quiet, clean and comfortable, and fully equipped with everything we needed for a two week stay over summer. Parking is easy, the owners of the cottage are very helpful, and there are lovely neighbours in the adjoining cottage. The wifi as it was a bit hit and miss & rather slow during our stay but for us this wasn’t a huge problem. There is so much to see and do within a short drive in any direction from the cottage and the owners thoughtfully provide lots of brochures and information about the local (and wider) area. It is also only about an hour by train into central London from Headcorn station (about a 15 minute drive from the cottage). We fully recommend Penhill Cottage as a place to stay.

  Unbelievable location. Magical, atmospheric, grand and yet welcoming. If you like any music then listening to it whilst relaxing in the nave of a chapel is wonderful. The layout of the holiday home gave us fantastic family dinners in an unforgettable unique space but having the snugs gave us cosy family film viewing too. Everything worked...the two ovens even made cooking a pleasure and the ensuite bathroom was pure luxury. So much to do in the area (walks, pinetum, vineyard, Go Ape, Sissinghurst, Leeds Castle and the best cat cafe in Tonbridge to name a few) and yet we felt remote enough to relax completely. Could not fault the place. Would recommend without hesitation.

  This is great accommodation for a holiday with family and or friends that’s definitely dog friendly. Lovely spacious accommodation well equipped with very comfortable furniture and a well equipped kitchen. Bedrooms are comfortable and both the shower rooms fitted out with large walk in showers with plenty of hot water. Facilities for a dog are really good. A large secure garden to the barn and a really large secure dog field more than large enough to burn off those zoomies! The hosts are very welcoming and we can recommend ordering some fresh meat from their farm. Our Christmas Turkey was lovely. Great location for exploring both countryside and coast.

  There were other peoples body hairs in the bathroom. There is no working light bulb at front door. I think the property could do with an Alexa dot for information and local news etc..The bed in the front bedroom is so squeaky to get a good nights sleep. The curtain pole in that bedroom falls down as it is not secured in the middle. The cottage is in a perfect setting and these things are not criticisms just points to help future visitors. I would also have liked there to have been a potted history of the cottage to read, thank you, see you again and we will recommend to friends
