Sehr schönes ruhig gelegenes Cottage
Schönes sauberes und modernes Cottage, es liegt im Hinterhof vom Crampton Cottage mit einem sicheren Privatem Parkplatz.
Vom Vermieter John gab es wertvolle Tips zu unserer London Tour.
Bei schönem Wetter hatten wir die möglichkeit die Sitzecke vom Vermieter mit zu nutzen.
Nach einer Woche gab es frische Handtücher und Bettwäsche.

Clean, family friendly and has everything for self catering.
A small and quiet village with shops, resturants/takeaways nearby. Great for a home-away break. John, the owner was helpful and could be contacted if needed. We enjoyed our stay and would love to visit again.

Cottage had everything we needed for a comfortable stay
This cottage is perfect for a small family and has everything you need. It was clean and tidy, and had enough space to meet our needs, including a full kitchen with washer/dryer, a decent bathroom, and comfortable beds. Its a great base for exploring the local area and while we didn't need to use any of the local shops there are most things within walking distance e.g. butchers, pubs, corner shop, pharmacy, etc. We would not hesitate to re-book for a future trip to the area.

Nice place
Cottage was very clean and spacious. Across the road from a nice pub and a Indian restaurant. Short walk to the train station. Would definitely stay there again.

Cute cottage
This cottage is perfect for us when we visit relatives in Staplehurst. It is cute, comfortable and located near shops, eateries, etc. A short drive to Sissinghurst, Cranbrook and Goudhurst. On the bus route to Maidstone and train route to London. Great location in the heart of Kent.

Relation quality and price perfect
Staplehurst is a very nice small town with a lot of services in the surroundings of the cottage.
The owner stated that the cottage is cleaner than his own house. The note for cleaning for the cottage is a 10. The quality of the beds are even better than we have at our home.
We had a very nice stay and are considering to come back in 2019.
Compliments to hosts Johnn and his family.

Nette Unterkunft mitten in Staplehurst
Kleines, gemütliches Cottage mitten im Dorf mit guten Möglichkeiten zur Selbstverpflegung oder zum Essengehen. Sehr sauber und vollständig ausgestattet.
Super zentral für vielältige Ausflugsziele in der Umgebung. Freundliche, zurückhaltende Vermieter. Gutes Informationsmaterial über die Umgebung liegt in der Wohnung aus.
