Disliked: Room comfort
Not as advertised.
I booked this hotel specifically because it advertised air conditioning and I like to support local hotels wherever I stay over corporate hotels as often as I can. Unfortunately this hotel advertised air conditioning which was one of my preferences but actually does not have air conditioning so on one of the hottest weeks of the year I was unable to get any sleep and when I challenged the advert at reception I was informed that a fan was available, my room was a ground floor with people walking around so unfortunately I could not have the windows open due to security and all in all a very bad nights rest, I will never stay at this hotel again.
Wonderful hotel with interesting history, beautiful grounds/gardens. Warm welcome, friendly and accommodating staff, excellent food. I will definitely reurn if I am in the area again.
very good stay! The room was incredibly spacious, offering ample room to relax and unwind. The breakfast was good. Highly recommend this hotel for a comfortable and satisfying experience!
Staff were great, as was the food. Venue nice, location OK. First impression of room nice, but lots of little imperfections - clean and functioning well, but details could have been better
Considering the difficult times we are all facing it was a very pleasurable stay in a lovely location and good food all served in a safe outdoor setting thanks to the wonderful weather.

A pleasant stay with friendly staff. Parts of hotel looking a bit tired but the grounds were lovely. Great breakfast. Menu for dinner lacked good choice, quite basic.
Staff were fantastic - very friendly and helpful. Everyone was very diligent with regard to Covid-10.
We found Eva to be particularly helpful and friendly.
Would very much recommend hotel, staff and locality.
Easy to find and plenty of parking. Reception very friendly and offered to help with bags. Bedrooms a good size with a bath in the en-suite. Bed also comfortable and the TV a good size. We had a couple of drinks in the bar which was very relaxing and a bar snack of toasted cheese & ham baguette with chips. Just what we needed! Breakfast in the morning was freshly prepared and very tasty. The hotel was very good value for money and we would certainly return if staying in the area.
We went for a short break to Howfield and everything was wonderful. The bed was comfortable, room was clean and food was delicious. We had breakfast included with lots of options to choose from and at dinner the food was delicious. Would stay again.
Only stayed one night, rom was clean tidy, well stocked. Staff where very friendly. I left early morning before the restaurant opened, so the staff arranged for me to have a packed Lunch for me...Would recommend a stay here and will book in again if Im working back in Chilham....
Very surprised at the high standards considering the low price. Clean, modern, good quality food and service. Would not hesitate to stay on further occasions.
