You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Riverside Cottage is a quiet haven for two. Right on the East Stour river.

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. The village shop is less than half a mile up the road. Outside, you’ll have your own private patio, ideal for alfresco dinners and sit and watch the sunset, or a peaceful morning coffee.

Situated in the heart of the Kentish countryside it offers easy access to London via Ashford international station, is just 10 mins drive from the Channel Tunnel and 25 mins from Dover. Canterbury is just 20 min away and offers a great nightlife with bars and restaurants. Including the Boys Hall 17th Century boutique restaurant nearby and having been recently restored offers excellent food.

We are often lucky to see the hot air balloons coming from nearby Leeds Castle drifting low and Spitfire aircraft flying low above the property. It’s quite a sight.

As well as having the 16th Century Farriers Arms over the road we also have the recently refurbished Royal Oak near the corner shop at the top of the road, with an excellent menu - including a take away service.

Private parking directly to the right hand side of the gravel drive, with a short walk to cottage entrance at rear of property.

This is where you will find the key safe and your private patio area looking out across the fields.

If there are any problems during your stay please feel free to contact me or Vivien by mobile and if were around just call and know at the front door.

We can provide a travel cot and a high chair if you’re bringing a small child, but please call prior to arrange before your arrival?
The cottage is heated and features a kitchen and a patio, and there's space to spread out with a separate bedroom. Guests can expect to find free WiFi and a TV with a DVD player. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, an electric kettle, and an ironing board.

Lovely relaxing stay

This is a lovely cottage for two people with great views from the living area. It has all amenities and plenty of space to relax in. It is well situated for visiting south Kent and has the advantage of a pub a few yards away which does great food. The only issue we had was that the wifi did not have a strong signal.
