Second time staying here and it was just as perfect! Staff are so friendly and helpful. Rooms are clean and well decorated, the bed is the best ever!! Will be coming back again. Highly recommended 🥰💕

This is one of the warmest B&Bs I have ever stayed in. The hotel is very clean, the interior is newly renovated, the bathroom is large, the bed is comfortable, and the waiters are very friendly. The disadvantage is that it is on the side of the road, not suitable for travelers who are afraid of noise, and the breakfast is very simple. It is a bit convenient to drive between Canterbury and Dover White Cliffs, and there are parking spaces.
