Their property was exactly as described, beautifully decorated. It was super clean and conveniently located, less than 10 min drive to Dover castle and a short 5 min drive to Dover’s White Cliffs. It’s a small bungalow, but our family of 5 was very comfortable during our stay. Candice was super helpful and assisted us greatly when needed! ##### Tayra H.

The furniture and bed are very comfortable. ##### Betsy t. Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Andrew 14 Sept 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication We stayed in a small cottage with two bedrooms and a full kitchen. We enjoyed walking down to the channel and to local pubs. The hike out to the light house on the cliffs was pretty but the trail crossed a recently tilled field that had manure on it. But we saw a Spitfire fly by! It would be a great spot for a family. ##### Andrew Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Günter S. 28 Aug 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Toller Urlaub Die Unterkunft war prima, alles vorhanden was man braucht.Bei Nachfrage war Vermieter über Email stets erreichbar.Sehr zu empfehlen.Die Felsen und Umgebung war gut zu erreichen. ##### Günter S.
