Church View Cottage

The cottage was well designed and equipped with everything we could need. The location is good for touring the area and the village has a well stocked shop us a pharmacy, post office and cafe. There are also three very good pubs with restaurants.

Church view cottage is a lovely cottage in a lovely village with all the amenities you need, you are no more than a hour’s drive from most attractions in the area. The cottage is off a very high standard with a lot of nice features and also lovely views of the church at the front and countryside at the rear. We would also like to thank the owners for the very generous welcome pack of food and wine.

This is a high spec property in an excellent location in Kent and a lovely village. Lots of items which you normally have to think of are taken care of e.g dishwasher tablets, washing up liquid and even washing machine detergent etc. It is on a busy road was which an initial concern but once inside the cottage the road is not a problem at all. We took two dogs and the small yard and nearby park and open field were ideal for letting them run off steam. If I had small children the yard and narrow footpath to the front door would be a concern but I don't and my teenagers were very happy reading and on phones. We used a drop off and loading spot nearby as the parking is on the other side of the very well maintained Church grounds. The Vineyard at Lamberhurst and The Star and Eagle were excellent places to get high quality food. Bedgebury Pinetum for a day visit/Go Ape and National Trust properties lots of them within ten minutes make this an amazing location and base for walks and exploring.

We only managed a short weekend stay (whilst attending a wedding locally) but Church View Cottage was delightful and well equipped with everything we needed. Located in a lovely picturesque village (directly opposite a stunning Church) our only qualm was that we couldn't stay for longer! Back to work and school on Monday. Would love to return and explore the area further one day.

A lovely Easter break at Church View Cottage. The Cottage is beautifully furnished and equipped and is a real home from home. The views from the back of the cottage are amazing and the church makes a spectacular sight from the front, especially at night. The cottage has everything you could need for a relaxing break and the welcome pack was a 'welcome' surprise with chocolate, wine and biscuits to get the holiday off to a good start. All the beds were comfortable and the cottage was spotlessly clean. We had a nice meal at the nearby pub and the village also has a grocery store, pharmacy and bakery/tea shop. Loads of great places to visit nearby, including Sissinghurst and Scotney Castle. Would definitely stay again.

Outside, dangerous road, no footpath, awful trying to cross it, non stop heavy traffic, no place to pull in by cottage, no parking. Inside, 1st staircase steep, did not like break in rail, not good for older people like us. 2nd staircase not so bad. Cottage inside and out generally not suitable for a dog, my friend was glad she didn’t bring hers after all. Plus points Netflix & Amazon Prime.

A super little cottage in a lovely village. Everything is catered for and very well thought out. Quality furniture, bedding and fittings. Highly recommended. We would definitely return

A comfortable cottage for 4 adults. We stayed during the storms and the cottage was a little draughty, so had to keep the wood burner on for most of the time. Wish we had taken a supply of wood with us, as there wasn't enough left for us (and the local prices were extreme). Beds were comfy and the cottage was spotless, with supplies of wine, butter, chocolate and dog treats being well received. The only downside was the parking, as the cottage was on a main road and unpacking/re-packing was unnerving. Only a few steps to a lovely pub/restaurant where we enjoyed a fabulous meal and the church view was wonderful.

The owners have created a beautifully presented holiday home which is really home from home. The furniture, fittings and appliances are all relatively new and of excellent quality. The attention to detail is evident as soon as you walk in. We spent 2 weeks here in January and found plenty to see and do in the area, especially with an active cocker spaniel to keep exercised!

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.

Great holiday in a wonderful cottage. The views from the upstairs attic room are fantastic.
