Amazing Stay at The Homestead - Chaucer House
We spent the bank holiday weekend at this lovely property and had an excellent experience. The house was clean, spacious, and comfortably accommodated our group of 12. The beds were very comfortable, and we enjoyed stunning views of the countryside fields. A highlight of our stay was the presence of four beautiful horses and a friendly pony, which added a special touch to our visit. The kitchen was fully equipped, and the dining area featured a large table perfect for our entire group to eat together. Additionally, the property is conveniently located just a 20-minute drive from Canterbury. Martin is a wonderful host, and we would definitely love to return to this property in the future. Highly recommended!

Schönes großes Haus in guter ruhiger Lage. Für große Familie wirklich ausreichend Platz in allen Bereichen. Die schönen Kent Downs sind vom Haus aus in alle Richtungen erwanderbar! Und Canterbury ist auch „um die Ecke“! Küchenutensilien lassen etwas zu wünschen übrig, und einige Türen zu den Zimmern und auch nach draußen lassen sich nicht verschließen! Hat uns nicht gestört, aber könnte besser sein.Alles in allem aber tolles Haus für relativ günstigen Preis!
