Primrose Lodge
Primrose Lodge has everything you could wish for. The space has been thoughtfully and stylishly designed and is extremely comfortable. Everything provided for here - comfortable bed, huge bath, well equipped kitchen and a very efficient wood burner, with a generous supply of logs, that kept us warm and toasty through the recent cold spell.
The location is perfect - just a 5 minute drive from the pretty village of Mayfield or a 15 minute from Tunbridge Wells. Loads of great pubs and walks very close by.
Our hosts couldn't have been more friendly and attentive.
Lovely rural location. Very nicely renovated barn - high quality bedding. Perfect location to explore an area new to us.

The cottage is really comfortable
We had a great time at Primrose Lodge! The cottage is really comfortable and we also enjoyed sitting outside a lot as the weather was mostly fine. The area is nice for hiking and we also visited some interesting National trust Properties - we loved Monk's House and Ightham Mote in particular.

Cozy Cottage in wunderful surroundings
Thank you for our stay in this cozy and tastefully decorated cottage. It was especially nice to have breakfast in the sun on the bench in front of the house with a view of the greenery. The location is ideal for trips to beautiful gardens and country houses. We especially enjoyed Scotney Castle and Sisdinghurst Garden!

What a lovely and charming place to stay!
At every moment of the day and night we enjoyed the tranquility in the beautiful natural surroundings. The sheep, the birds and the overwhelming colours of Spring were fantastic. The cottage is truly perfect, beautifully furnished and decorated as it is, with an eye for-utterly charming detail. We felt spoilt here, and enjoyed every aspect of our stay. The owners provided everything to make us feel comfortable and welcome. Thank you so much for your hospitality and for taking such good care.

Nice Quiet Break
Accommodation was perfect for the two of us, everthing we needed was provided for. We arrived on a lovely sunny, winters day and 24 hours later the first snow of the year descended on us! The woodburner kept us snug for the rest of the week!
We enjoyed the different walks which are easily accessible around the property.
Plenty of options to visit, should you wish to venture out!
We loved our stay. Everything was wonderful. the area especially was superb. We didn't make it to London because there was so much to see in the area. We loved it and would return. Thank you for your hospitality.

Lovely snug cottage to come back to.
Fantastic week in the early autumn sunshine. Lots of walks with the dog, lots of National Trust properties visited - Sheffield Park, Standen and Scotney Castle being the best for autumn colours. Lovely snug cottage to come back to.

Comfortable, tranquil and relaxing....
After a weekend looking after my brother's three children (all under the age of 6!) this is just what we needed. Comfortable, tranquil and relaxing :) Very well equipped accommodation.
