Comfortable studio with kitchenette amd ensuite. A beautiful place with the peaceful sounds of the stream, ducks and other birdlife all outside our window. Wonderful place to have time out and relax. Close to places like Cantebury, Dover, Herne Bay for day trips. Diane was a excellent Host.

A perfect retreat
Willow tree cottage was just lovely and is very well appointed. It's setting alongside the river stour is perfect and the villase of Littlebourne has easy access to beautiful Canterbury. We stayed for three nights and our host Dianne was so friendly and helpful.

Un petit endroit
Un lieu calme, et idéalement situé près d'une petite rivière. Idéal pour visiter l'est du Kent dont Canterbury
