Very nice owners who live next door. An excellent free house 2 minutes walk away the Butchers arms is a must if you like real ale. the old dairy is well located for the attractions of Canterbury and Whitstable. we enjoyed our stay.

Very welcoming owners and great base for exploring Kent

We used this place as a base to go out on day and half day trips arourd Kent.The old dairy was just right for the two of us,we used the decked area to sit out on for meals and just to relax.The accomodation was very clean and well equipped for two people.
The village shop has the basics (wine,food,papers ETC).There are two pubs in the village,neither do food .We found some good places to eat in Herne bay and Whitstable.We used the bus to go to Canterburry and back,didn,t cost very much more than the car park would have cost for the day.
Kent has lots of small town that are full of history ,well worth a visit, we intend to use the old dairy again

A lovely, cosy, little love nest and the owners were so helpful and kind, kept a discreet distance to allow us our privacy. There with anything we needed, all in all a fantastic little hideaway with excellent access to all the beaches. The garden was delightful.

Ms Weston

This is our fourth time using Sykes listed accommodation and we are delighted with the consistent high standard of the cottages.
The owners on this occasion, were extremely helpful in every way and we can not praise them highly enough.
Well done to Sykes, again!

Mrs MacLeod

The area was lovely and very convenient to pubs. Taking the bus to Canterbury was much better than driving there. There was a lot to see and do.

Mrs MacMillan

The Old Dairy was comfortable and cosy, the owners were very friendly and helpful. It was a very good base from which to tour North and East Kent. The Butcher's Arms was a most unusual pub for us but a delight.

Mr Collis

The garden is great for young children. Very welcoming and helpful owners.

Mr & Mrs Brown

This was our first visit to Kent and we didn't know what to expect and were very pleasantly surprised. We totally enjoyed touring around and visiting places of interest. We love Cornwall and have been going there for many years but we will now add Kent to our list of places to visit.

Mr Edwards

The location was perfect for touring round Kent. The Old Dairy was comfy and cosy with the added bonus of cake and a cup of tea waiting for us when we first arrived.

Mr & Mrs Sibley

The Old Dairy cottage provides a very good base for visiting around Kent.

Miss Twiselton

The owners went out of their way to provide a warm welcome. Lots of info provided on places to visit etc. Fantastic bus service runs past the property every 10 mins, arrived Sat & didn't use the car until we went home. Excellent walking routes close by.

Very warm welcome, marvellous cottage and lovely garden area. Great area to explore, lots of literature available including OS map! and history of the local area.

Excellent weather for a start, good position of cottage for the use of the very good bus service to visit many places. Very welcoming and friendly owners with helpful suggestions.

Lovely comfortable accommodation, very welcoming on arrival . This property was a very good base for touring around the area. We chose to use our car as we like to explore and find new places. If however you don't want to use your car then there is a very good bus service.
