A lovely welcome

Lovely over night stay. Welcoming friendly staff. Rooms comfy although bathroom extractors rather noisy & can be heard from all other nearby rooms every time they’re switched on & off but kind of got used to it. Amazing Sunday roast when we arrived. Lovely cooked breakfast in morning. Really nice pub. Would definitely return.

Great place

Plenty of free parking. Received a warm welcome. Was shown to the room and asked what time I wanted breakfast. I was immediately impressed with the pub area, and the corridors to the room. It was tastefully decorated whilst still respecting the old features of the building. The room was also well decorated, and spotless. Biscuits and a vast array of very nice tea bags and some coffee bags too. Only 2 downsides really was no rail to hang clothes, there’s hooks but not ideal. Also soundproofing wasn’t good, I could hear the bathroom sounds of the neighbouring room very clearly. I did find the pillows too soft, but that’s a minor gripe. Breakfast was delicious, a tad salty but it was clearly high quality so props to the chef. Wish I had eaten dinner there too the night before. So perhaps I shall return to try something else. Also for future guests reading this, the WiFi password is in the welcome book by the teabags! Would be great if it was on the wooden keying, or somewhere more obvious though.

A great find in a lovely setting

A delightful part of Kent to stay over, and the White Horse was a nice find. Comfortable, clean and modern, with very traditional country pub undertones. Staff were happy and helpful, and the breakfast options excellent (although my poached eggs were cold for some reason). On arrival the car park is sizeable so there are no concerns there. A little road noise with the window open, but overall I can’t complain at all and would certainly stay again.
