Wonderful 1 bedroom cottage near Port Lympne Wild Animal Park and Canterbury

Riverside Cottage is a quiet little haven for two, only a stone's throw from the East Stour river. Beautifully furnished and overlooking farmland, this is a lovely spot for a relaxing break with great country walks from the doorstep and a good pub, the Farrier's Arms just a minute's walk from the front door. Please note it has parking for one car only. The village shop for all your essentials is about a mile down the road . The cathedral city of Canterbury is only 30 minutes drive with a wonderful array of museums, restaurants and cafes to choose from. For an adventure hop on the train at Eurotunnel which is just down the road and in 35 minutes you will be in Northern France with its pretty villages and beautiful beaches. The quaint seaside town of Hythe is only a 20 minute drive with lovely pebble beaches and boats to hire on the Royal Militray Canal and the famous Port Lympne Wild Animal Park is just five miles away. There really is so much on offer you will be spoilt for choice! Shop: 1 mile Pub: 200 yards Coast: 8.5 miles

What's not to like!

This is wonderful accommodation in a picture postcard setting. Property is extremely well presented with everything you need. Location could not be better. If you like village settings and archetypal country pubs on your doorstep, then this is for you. Highly recommended.

A Little Haven

My daughter and I were delighted with our stay - the sunny patio and garden area look out onto the countryside. The property was well equipped and the bathroom was roomy with plenty of storage space. The decor was very pleasant. Location for us was perfect for visiting family in Ashford, only a 15 to 20min drive away

Peaceful location. Beautiful Sunsets

Tony was a pleasure to interact with before and during our stay. The cottage was spacious and comfortable. It was also well outfitted with supplies. Great little village with walking trails and pub that brews their own beer nearby. The cottage was also conveniently located and easy to get out and about each day.

Kent Idyll

We had three nights in this beautiful cottage. We had a friendly welcome from our host, the accommodation was spotless and exactly as the photos showed. We were lucky enough to have fabulous weather which enabled us to walk around this village and sample the hospitality of both local pubs but even better to sit out on the west facing patio with a glass of wine and watch the sun go down. Would certainly recommend.

Wonderful peaceful break.

The property was ideal, it had everything we needed. The shower was great and the bed and couch very comfortable. The gardens are well kept and we had a beautiful sunset each evening. Vivian and Tony were the perfect hosts, and Vivian gave us lots of tips of where to visit. The pub just a couple of minutes walk away, was an added bonus. We highly recommend Riverside cottage, and would love to return when we can.

A beautiful stay

What a stunning home in an even more beautiful location. We managed to enjoy a lovely meal in the Farriers Arms and explore Hythe, Folkestone and Canterbury during our stay. Evening dinner on the patio with the sunset was something to remember. This was a much needed escape after this year so thank you so much. Lillie the cat is such a sweetheart.
