Cottage vacation rentals in Kingsdown

I cannot fault both Barry and Fay ! We had the most relaxing beautiful trip ! It was combined holiday trip and family wedding in Kent ! The property was so spacious and clean and both were so accommodating with our extra needs ! It was so lovely to go in the hot tub in morning and eve and play pool instead of watching tv! This is such a relaxing place to stay this is deffinatley the place to de stress and unwind just the perfect property to relax and enjoy the moment ! I would say they are perfect host … there if needed and also give you space … amazing is the best description !

We fell in love with Evegate Manor Barn from the moment we arrived! It’s in a stunning location, felt very private and was the perfect first night away for us and our four month old baby! Larissa was responsive, understanding when we needed to change dates and was so helpful and welcoming! The pool and hot tub are an added bonus and our little one loved to see the chickens and explore the garden! Having the artisan village next door was amazing and we enjoyed our evening at the pub! This listing has everything you could ask for and we would love to come back later this year! Amazing hosts too, thankyou for making our stay so easy ☺️

Was amazing to be there for a quick weekend getaway. The Lantern is awesome great spot, the hot tub hit the mark and the spaces were private throughout.

The Old shires barn was beyond our expectations, with an absolutely beautiful living space. The gift basket and robes were a very nice touch that made us feel at home. The owners were very responsive, helpful and friendly throughout. It was a pleasure to stay here and would definitely recommend.

Thank you so much for a wonderfully peaceful getaway, with all the little gifts and the amazing hospitality. A truly dog friendly holiday with lots of walks around, enclosed garden and excellent hosts.

Booked for a couple of nights for a short staycation - was nice and peaceful, close to the coast. Had an amazing relaxing time in the hot tub and was a lovely place to stay

We enjoyed a wonderful long Easter weekend in this charming cottage. The space was cozy and perfectly appointed, lots of old charm - original cottage was built in 1550! - and special touches that delighted our children and made us feel like we were in quite a magical little space. The gardens are beyond gorgeous and just a lovely space to sit in the sunshine and watch our children play. It was a wonderful weekend filled with children’s laughter, bird song and cozy nights by the fire as a family. Thank you Tim & Maite for sharing your gorgeous cottage with us. The children are already asking we come back soon!

We stayed at Nina's in the Easter holiday with our two younger children. All of us were left enchanted by her beautiful home! we would love to revisit in the near future. The living room and open plan kitchen was perfect for our family. We enjoyed eating our meals with the garden doors wide open. I must say the garden stole the show with it's spacious hot tub! It's situated in such a mesmerising location where you look out to fields. Sheep can be heard constantly- something my three year old absolutely loved! We miss the serenity of the countryside and the beautiful views from the house! Definitely worth a visit! The surrounding areas are simply superb!

Charlotte was an excellent host. We appreciated her flexibility, attention to detail and prompt responds. The home is beautifully decorated and very well set up for a great stay in Whitstable.

James is an excellent host. The accommodation also excellent. I can't even find a constructive criticism. From my three young children and I, an unqualified five stars!

A fantastic stay in a beautiful house. Great garden and location. Perfect host!

The house is very well equipped, the bedrooms and common living spaces are very cosy, the outdoor area looks onto open fields - great place to hang out and drink in the natural beauty of the surroundings - also great for enjoying the BBQ. Ruth provided a very clear and comprehensive guide with useful information about the house and appliances (even including which way to turn the taps in the bathrooms to adjust the water temperature!). The guide also included useful information about the places to visit, including restaurants and pubs. Each time I contacted Ruth with a question, she responded very quickly. I strongly recommend her home for a family and/or friends gathering!

Everything was great and as described with a perfect location close to the sea front. Stephen was friendly and made us feel welcome upon arrival so it was easy to settle in and relax. A well deserved five stars!

We would like to say a big thank you. We had a fantastic weekend stay at this property. The garden was 100% safe for our dog and we found it nice and quiet, surrounded by nature and orchards. Mark had left lots of leaflets showing what's going on in the area, and was very kind to recommend places to visit and eat/drink. The accommodation was designed and decorated with alot of thought and attention to detail, to establish a very comfortable stay. We will certainly be visiting again.

We booked Dani’s house to have a few days away with our 4 young granddaughters. The house was perfect. Very well equipped with lots of board games for the girls. We ate in every day and the kitchen/dining room was great for big family meals. The house itself is really pretty in a private, small estate, that is very quiet. It’s cosy and homey inside with lots of personal touches. The bus stop is just round the corner on the main road. The beach is about a 5 minute walk the other side of the main road. However the climb up the dunes takes a little longer…they almost did nanny in 😂. But it was absolutely worth the climb! Beautiful, never ending beach. There is an easier walk onto the beach next to the car park further down. Dani was very helpful at all times. She should be very proud of her lovely house. Anny London

We had a fantastic time at this beach cottage as a family of 2 adults, a toddler and a baby. The location was excellent, just a 12 minute walk to the beach (Camber Sands) and about a 10 minute drive to the medieval town of Rye. The cottage itself was nicely decorated (Cape Cod style interiors) and the hosts were extremely responsive, eg when we mentioned that there was no kitchen roll. We made use of the travel cot and highchair provided as well. Will definitely recommend to others!

My husband and I along with our 2 dogs stayed at Brenda’s lovely cottage. We were greeted with fresh bread, eggs, condiments, fruit and a beautifully clean cottage. The garden was amazing and we enjoyed our dog walks at the local beach. Would definitely recommend and Brenda is a very kind and attentive lady. Many thanks Jo, Justin, Elbie and Elsie xx

I could not have started my month long visit to England in a better place! Dawn and her home made me feel right at home, the garden teeming with beautiful flowers, doves cooing and birds chirping. The nearby CoOp had everything needed to stock the kitchen. The Nature Preserve around the corner made for special walks and talks. Her artistic nature was evident throughout the house and garden. A very special place and lovely person.

We had such a peaceful and restful time at the Waggoners. And even more importantly, so did our anxious dog. She immediately settled in and spent all of her time relaxing on the grass watching TV (the sheep, pheasants and occasionally deer!). We stay in 4/5 places like this a year, and by far this was the fastest place she settled. We came via public transport, easy to get to either via taxi (lots of dog friendly ones in Rye) or by bus from Rye. Rye is a fabulously dog friendly town, and it's also easy to get to Camber Sands. Other dog notes: Bridget was proactive letting us know there are sheep just out front (electric fence in between) and there was occasionally a tractor driving past to get to the next field. This wasn't a problem as you could hear them coming with plenty of time, but just to be mindful of when the dogs are outside. We had everything we needed and could really just switch off which is exactly why we came. Absolutely loved it and will be back!

Great cottage in a beautiful location. Garden, and the snowdrops were stunning. The only downside was the very low ceilings. Anyone of average height is likely to hit their head on the beam in the kitchen. This was mentioned in other reviews, and expected in an old cottage, but was not mentioned in the description.

A peaceful stay in beautiful surroundings, the Brickhouse is characterful and full of unique features. This was exactly what we needed and everything was as described. Alice and Hugh were lovely and communication was always speedy. Highly recommend to anyone who wants to escape to the country.

We had the most amazing stay. The cottage was immaculate with so many thoughtful additional touches. The surroundings were peaceful with views to die for and Jo’s gardens were very pretty! The wildlife was amazing and we saw badgers and foxes up close! We only stayed for two nights while we were visiting Port Lymphe and the location was ideal… We highly recommend Jo and her cottage, we wish we could have stayed longer and we would love to return! Thank you so much!

Lovely cottage. Very spacious. Nicely furnished. Good WiFi. The courtyard is a nice suntrap and was a secure place for our Yorkshire terrier to potter around. Jane could not have been more helpful. Will definitely visit again. Rye is a beautiful town. Very dog friendly. Enjoyed good wine and a splendid Ribeye steak at The George Inn.

Jaya hosted my partner and I and it was one of the best Airbnb’s we’ve ever stayed in! So cozy, well designed and clean and has everything you could possibly need. The views from the arched windows were incredible and Jaya’s communication was so quick, she was so helpful and kind and even gave us a hand when we had some car trouble! Couldn’t recommend her place enough. Thank you so much for having us Jaya! Best wishes, Ruchi & Danny 🤗xx
