Church View Cottage

It was a very cosy cottage and very well stocked with everything you need. The village had everything you needed, apart from a bypass. Would recommend this cottage.

Lovely cottage, warm and cosy, beautifully decorated and cared for. Great location for all the wonderful National Trust properties, only an hour to Canterbury. A beautiful part of the world.

Church View Cottage was a lovely home for the week. It is spotlessly clean, tastefully and very comfortably decorated and the owners, Mark and Caroline, could not have been more generous in terms of the quality of everything they had provided for us, from furnishings to appliances to toiletries to the most generous welcome pack we have had in a rental property. Everything was the kind of quality you'd want. They have very high standards, which was a lovely treat for us! Goudhurst is an attractive looking village which is an ideal base for exploring surrounding NT properties etc. It has a couple of convenience stores, a pharmacy, a bakery/cafe and a pub, there is another pub a 15 minute walk from the house. The village didn't work very well for us as we took our two dogs and unfortunately the closest pub didn't allow dogs inside so we weren't able to use it much as the weather was getting cooler. The road outside the cottage is very busy and quite noisy, but the views of the church opposite the front of the cottage and of the beautiful surrounding countryside from the back of the cottage are very attractive. We had a problem arising from renovation work on the next door cottage on day 2 of our stay and Mark and Caroline arrived immediately to sort it out for us, spending most of the day doing this. They also paid for our lunch and drinks in the nearby pub, settling the bill unbeknownst to us, which we thought was really kind of them.

A very cosy and well-equipped cottage. It was spotlessly clean and was in a good location for visiting Sissinghurst Castle Gardens. The road outside was very busy during the day, but quietened down after about 9pm. Although there was no parking at the cottage, we were able to park behind the church, which was just a 2-minute walk away. The Star and Eagle pub is about 50 yards from the cottage, and The Goudhurst Inn is about a 15-minute walk. I would definitely recommend this cottage.

We loved our stay at Church View Cottage and will definitely be booking again. The cottage is beautifully decorated throughout and is located in the gorgeous village of Goudhurst which has a wonderful bakery. We stayed with our dogs and found some brilliant walks with gorgeous views. Caroline was so helpful throughout the stay and left a welcome basket full of goodies for us and the dogs. Thank you for a lovely stay, would highly recommend.

We were a party of 4 Adults and Church View Cottage is a great little cottage, location perfect for exploring the amazing area, which has plenty to do for all ages. The cottage is in a small village with shop, newsagent and pub, the closest supermarket is Cranbrook and there are several farm shops close by. There is a narrow road at the front of the cottage which lorries try and navigate, this entertained us no end, with a few having to really squeeze past each other or back up. The cottage was spotlessly clean and fresh and the best equipped place we have stayed, the extras including Fizz, milk, chocolates, bread, biscuits, flowers etc were such a nice touch and I was envious of the very tasteful decor and furnishings. We ate (outside) in a few pubs and would recommend the Goudhurst Inn and The Three Chimneys. Go Ape at Bedgebury park was a highlight for us, as was the walk from The cottage (7 miles of beautiful countryside). Communication from Mark and Caroline was perfect, great instructions for all appliances and local info provided.

We had a lovely stay at Church View Cottage. The owners are very thoughtful and considerate. They emailed detailed arrival and parking instructions a few days before and the cottage itself is very well equipped and spotlessly clean. My teenage daughter chose it on the basis of the lovely photos and you won't be disappointed as the cottage is beautiful throughout. The view from the top bedroom is super. It is also really well placed for some great walking with a pathway behind the church. Sissinghurst is also only six miles away. We had a good meal at the pub across the road. The owners left a super welcome pack with generous supplies and also some ice creams in the freezer which was a lovely touch. Thank you. Book with confidence! Helen.

A beautiful cottage, very well equipped to a high standard. Kitchen equipment - pans, knives, crockery, etc was all top quality. The welcome hamper with treats was a lovely surprise. The view from the top bedroom over the surrounding countryside was breath-taking and the view from the sitting room across to the church was lovely, especially in the evenings when the church was illuminated. Good local shops and lots to do in the area. Only minor disadvantage was the traffic manoeuvring round the bend near the cottage but as we were out during the day, this wasn't a problem. A real find. Highly recommended.

Best equipped cottage I have ever been too! Lovely touches such as a bunch of flowers and lunch boxes. Very clean and a great village.
