We stayed here for a long weekend. I cannot recommend this place enough. Joan and Mike were so welcoming. The BB itself is well laid out, has excellent facilities, is spacious but at the same time cosy as well. The bed is lovely and the bath is a must. Great base in gorgeous surroundings. We really enjoyed our stay...home from... More

We stayed here for my birthday and what can I say that hasn't already been said. The cottage is set in an area of natural beauty. The people could not be friendlier. The breakfast is to die for and once eaten will keep you sated for most of the day. The bed was very comfortable, the shower and amenities were... More

Everything has been perfectly thought through in Gate Lodge Cottage from the arrival brownie to the selection of jams and breads available at breakfast. The room (suite) is large with a sitting room, fully equipped kitchen and a bedroom upstairs, along with a lovely ensuite bathroom. If you are looking for a break in the Canterbury area then Gate Lodge... More

Truly wonderful accommodation - it's rare to get the best of both a bed and breakfast and the facilities of self-catering. We had a self-contained suite with lovely bedroom, bathroom, dressing area, sitting room and kitchen (complete with fridge and fresh milk and biscuits). Private and safe parking and near to great pubs (especially the one in the local village).... More

We stayed here - again - and it was just the best. The room is comfortale and the bed is the best we've slept in. The mattress just leaves you feeling refreshed when you rise next morning. The breakfast (which you order the night before) has a very good choice and the suppliers used are the best (Waitrose!!!!). I had... More

After 3 nights did not wish to leave, Mike&Joan were a truly lovely couple. They could not do enough to make our stay any better, the accomodation is top notch and breakfast is amazing. Close to lots of places of interest and nice pub in the village. It was better than normal b&bs as you have your own kitchen and... More

As all other revies have said, this place was magnificant! From being greeted on arrival with freshly made brownies to the sumptuous breakfast before we left. The accomodation itself is excellent. A nice, comfy lounge to relax in a fully functioning kitchen to use as you wish and the most beautiful upstairs area ( reached by the spiral staircase )... More

As a couple we travel a lot! And to be very honest, this has been the best bed and breakfast we have ever come across. It is spacious, luxurious and you have two levels that you can relax in. Mike and Joan are fantastic hosts, even to the smallest detail, for example new cups, amazing biscuits and home made cakes... More
