The White Cliffs of Dover form part of the English coastline facing the Strait of Dover and France. The cliff face, which reaches a height of 350 feet (110 m), owes its striking appearance to its composition of chalk accented by streaks of black flint. The cliffs, on both sides of the town of Dover in Kent, stretch for eight miles (13 km).

Sheila and Stephen were perfect hosts who attended to every little classy detail. I had read other reviews about the bread, jam, and fresh eggs but wasn’t prepared for how well-supplied the cottage is. It is also gleaming spotless with a fabulous king bed. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. Thank you. ##### Jean K. Stayed 4 nights in Sep 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### darren k. 21 Apr 2019 #### So relaxing Wow! What a beautiful place . We stayed here over the Easter weekend and were so lucky with the beautiful weather. We enjoyed sitting on the patio watching the wildlife whilst enjoying a g & t ! The cottage is perfect...Sheila and Steve we really appreciated the lovely goodies that were left for us....especially the gorgeous fresh eggs. Thanks for a very relaxing break ...just what was needed following recent health issues. Hoping to visit again in the future Thanks again ##### darren k.

A very enthusiastic greeting on arrival, a very nice welcoming hamper including very freshly laid eggs from Sheila’s and Steve’s hens. Lots of places worth visiting. Our favourite was Scotney Castle. The National Trust volunteers were so engaging when we showed our interest. We generally spent our days out and about, but retired to the cottage in the evenings where utilised the well equipped kitchen to prepare our meals. It was great to look out the bedroom window each morning to see squirrels and pheasants within a few metres of the cottage. We had a lovely week there. Thoroughly recommended. ##### Wayne W. Stayed 5 nights in Nov 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Rohan P., Sydney, Australia 17 Oct 2018 #### Loved everything about this place We stayed five nights at Copse Corner in early October and we couldn't have chosen a better place. The setting is so beautiful - looking out over green fields, playful squirrels darting around, lots of birdlife. The owners, Sheila and Stephen, are very nice and welcoming but also respect your privacy, and the cottage is set far enough away from the main house to make it very private. They have clearly put in a lot of effort into making the cottage attractive and comfortable, with high quality furnishings and equipment. The bed is super comfortable, the bathroom really lovely, the kitchen and living room good for two people. The cottage was really clean and welcoming. It was also the perfect location for exploring a beautiful part of Kent: Chilham is just a couple of minutes' drive, Canterbury 15 mins, Dover and Whitstable each 30 mins, and the Eurostar station at Ashford just 20 mins away. Lots of fabulous walks - Chilham to Wye and the King's Wood were highlights. We really loved our stay here and would definitely book again. ##### Rohan P.

The location was beautiful, the property stunning and the owners friendly and welcoming. The quality of the furnishings and finish were beautiful, comfy and cosy. The attention to what would make for a perfect stay went above and beyond expectations. Everything that you could possibly want had been catered for. Sheila and Stephen had provided us with fresh bread, milk, butter, tea, coffee, sugar and 6 fresh eggs from their chickens - delicious!! And all much appreciated, as was the anniversary card from them both. The location, on a hill with wonderful views and set in nicely sculpted gardens was also very special. We were able to observe rabbits, squirrels, and a variety of birds from the comfort of the sofa! We loved the chickens in their 5\* fully automated hen house and especially the delicious eggs they produced! We would have no hesitation in recommending the cottage or Stephen and Sheila, who were great hosts, and hope to return soon. A perfect property for a perfect weekend. ##### Carol D.

We had wonderful weather (strange) and sat out on the patio for breakfast - the view is just so pretty and peaceful. The bed was really comfortable, as were the pillows. The bathroom is great with a large walk in shower and the kitchen is stocked with everything you might need! We went into Canterbury by train on our first day, went for a lovely 10 mile walk in the heat for our 2nd and decided against the mountain biking on our third…..!! Just had a nice relaxing day on the sun loungers. Thanks so much to Sheila and Stephen! Can’t rate this property highly enough! X ##### Anne H.

With this property and Steve and Shelia as hosts, we felt safe, secure and welcomed. Property was of the highest quality, stunning setting and peaceful. We ate, read and slept our way through the three days. The property has a very unique history. Would throughly recommend. ##### Joanne K.

Sheila and Stephen were very friendly and helpful from our first booking right through our stay. Copse Corner was scrupulously clean and there were sensible COVID precautions which were much appreciated. The decor and furnishings were beautiful. There is a very comfy bed and lovely bathroom too and the kitchen has everything one could need . The surroundings were rural and very peaceful (with pheasants and rabbits hopping around outside the back door) but there were lots of interesting places to visit within easy distance. We went to Whistable and Margate, Leeds Castle and Sissinghurst - all really interesting. A lovely place to stay. Would recommend. ##### Ruth L.

This included even prior to our visit by sending us regular emails to ensure we have a comfortable experience and thanks to that we didn’t have any surprises. Even during our stay, their communication with us via vrbo was efficient, any enquiries we had was replied to instantly. The location itself was wonderful, far away from the city centre but just close enough to get to if we really needed to. The cottage was honestly immaculate, the care, thought and precision put into it was something to admire. They thought of everything and it made our stay just that much better. Me and my partner even had a running joke when we couldn’t find something, we just knew we would eventually find it somewhere because it didn’t seem like they’d missed anything. We spent most of our time in the cottage because we just didn’t want to leave, we went on a few walks around the property which was very quiet and peaceful. We talked about coming back someday before we had even left the cottage, it was one of the best experiences we had and it was better than some of my stays abroad which is incredible considering it was just a short distance away from London. ##### Jasim M.

The views of the paddock were soothing for the soul with frequent rabbit, fox and squirrel visitors. And we loved having the chickens next door, they were a characterful bunch. Sheila and Stephen were perfect hosts from start to finish - great communication, a lovely welcome and they were on hand (but never intrusive) if we needed anything. They have done a splendid job with their property and gardens and are a lovely couple. We wouldn't hesitate to return. ##### Michael B.

We came last year and absolutely loved it. Sheila and Stephen are so lovely - they gave us some flowers and a card when they found out it was our anniversary which was just so thoughtful. It’s a lovely property with loads of great touches and everything you would need, loads of rabbits to watch outside the door too which was my favourite thing. Definitely want to come back again soon ##### Marianne R. Stayed 3 nights in May 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sharon L. 19 Apr 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Restful retreat in beautiful countryside Sheila & Stephen are the perfect hosts. Copse cottage is beautifully decorated and they really have thought of everything to make it a comfortable home from home. It also felt very covid safe, they have worked hard to make sure that everything is clean and sanitised - thank you. We stayed for a long weekend and were lucky with the weather. The views outside of the cottage are stunning. We loved listening to and watching nature do it’s thing; cute rabbits & squirrels hopping about and the birdsong was a treat to listen to each day. For those without a car we did some lovely walks from the cottage to Perry Woods and a nice circular through Denge wood. The village shop down the bottom of the hill has everything you need to cook a nice meal. And we cannot leave without commenting on Sheila’s beautiful hens, the eggs were scrumptious! Thank you so much for creating such a wonderful space - we felt immediately relaxed when we arrived and it was just the tonic we both needed after a very long lockdown. We didn’t want to leave... Highly recommend to anyone needing a serene and comfortable break away with gorgeous countryside surroundings. Thank you again Sheila & Stephen! Adrian & Sharon London ##### Sharon L.

We found that there was a lot that we could do without using our car. We really enjoyed some lovely walks from the doorstep and also went to Canterbury by train. Chillham train station is just a 15 minute walk from the cottage and Canterbury is then a 10 minute journey. Our welcome at the cottage was very thoughtful with the table set with a tea set and fresh bread, butter and jam and cookies. Lovely fresh eggs too. The cottage is extremely clean and everything's like new! Sheila had also taken a lot of effort to make sure that Covid-19 requirements were adhered to so we felt very comfortable with that. As I said to Sheila and Stephen it would be lovely to be able to lift their cottage and surrounding view to a variety of different locations in the country for other holidays! So we would definitely recommend this as a wonderful, quiet holiday destination. ##### Christine H.
