Reviews

Lovely cottage in a quiet location next door to the owners property. Unexpected welcome pack on arrival which was a lovely touch. Margaret and Bertie were very friendly and helpful when we had some car issues. Situated on a working farm Ronnie and Reggie the pet donkeys were real characters and an added bonus.

Mrs S,

A comfy, cosy cottage with lovely views across the fields at the back, including 2 friendly donkeys as neighbours!

Mrs M,

Really nice cottage in a good location. Great view from lounge across the hills. Value for money. Kitchen well-equipped. Had everything we needed for our stay. The donkeys really made our holiday. Was fun feeding them everyday. So cute. The summer house was a real bonus. Owners on hand if you needed them.

Dr S,

Ideally situated for visiting N.T properties. Quiet location with views over the countryside. The owners were very friendly and helpful should you need it.

Mrs A,

A perfect spot for us to visit all the National Trust and English Heritage properties in the area. As well as the heritage railways ! We very much enjoyed the floor show provided by the bird feeder. Plus of course the two donkeys, Ronnie and Reggie ! A delightful stay with friendly owners - and easy parking.

Mrs B,

A great property in an ideal location with excellent hosts who maintain high standards in all aspects. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and have booked again. Highly recommend for future customers.

Mr H,

It was a lovely cottage, and great views over the fields. The hosts Margaret and Bertie was very welcoming and even got to feed baby lamb, as it was lambing season. If we wanted to return to that area, we would definitely use cottage again.

Mrs I,

Lovely location excellent views. Very comfortable and hosts really helpful and the cottage very well equipped . A delightful holiday.

Mr H,

Booked this for my parents for a weekend away as a birthday celebration. They both came back Very happy and had nothing but good things to say. Mums comment was ‘i want to live there with the donkeys’ Dad said ‘it really is a home from home, they had thought of everything’. Might book myself for a little weekend there now. Thank you!!

Mrs H,

Lovely property, very well equipped. Owners very helpful. Donkeys amusing and love to be fed. Hope to return soon.

Mr B,

Hexden Lea had everything we were looking for. The setting is beautiful and the owners are very nice and helpful. The two resident donkeys, Reggie and Ronnie, gave us a rapturous welcome and became good friends. The property is situated In a good location for exploring the Kent countryside or for chilling-out and relaxing.

Mr H,

We will definitely be returning, me and my 9 year old had the best time. The Owners were lovely and the donkeys were ever so friendly.

Miss K,

Lovely spacious property, perfect for 2 people. Beautiful countryside views, lots of things to see and do nearby. Very comfortable, everything you could need with the added bonuses of your own private garden and summer house, perfect for relaxing. Lovely welcoming hosts. The donkeys are very friendly and lots of birds and rabbits to watch.

Mrs S,

Lovely little cottage with a wonderful view, and a comfortable little summerhouse for cooler evenings. Everything was spotless, well-equipped and very comfortable. Information was very helpful re places to go and places to eat out. Oh, and the donkeys were delightful and watching all the different birds on the bird feeder just outside. A very calming holiday!
