Cottage Guestbook

The countryside walks in the area were lovely and the barn was superb. It was very nice being so close to Canterbury and its amazing Cathedral.
Ms.T.R., Aug 2011
A beautiful property with stunning views. We will miss having our breakfast on the patio every morning. Petham Village was quaint and delightful. We had a wonderful holiday.
Miss E.E., July 2011
Our two boys and us had a perfect time at the Bacchus Barn. It is a very modern, spacious and light cottage with a stunning view. For us, this property is perfectly situated. Only a half an hour drive from the Channel Tunnel, direct access to the Denge Woods for hiking and mountain biking, a few minutes driving to Canterbury, less than an hour with the high speed train to London, close to the coast/beaches, and very freindly owners who really spoiled us. What else can you wish for?
