We had a wonderful relaxing 4 nights at Horseshoe cottage. Everything you need is there and of a high standard. Very dog friendly and a beautiful outlook onto fields. The hot tub was our highlight! Great location and close to lovely places to visit. Would definitely recommend staying here.

Absolutely amazing cottage, really well furnished with every little thing you could need. Stunning rural location with views of a horse paddock and fields. Handily only 15/20 minutes from Dover and Canterbury. The icing on the cake being the hot tub. Would love to come back.

We enjoyed a lovely short break at Horseshoe Cottage, which is very convenient for numerous locations that we wished to visit. The cottage itself was immaculate, welcoming and equipped with everything you could possibly need. The hot tub was the highlight of our stay and Mark and Sue were perfect hosts. We can't wait to come back with more family members and friends.
