Central Locale to Canterbury/Dover
This was a great property that was perfect for my family during the half term break. Its location is ideal for day trips to Dover, Leeds, Canterbury, the coast. We will definitely be back!

Fabulous and stylish
This amazing "barn conversion" is not to be missed. The property is fabulous, and superbly presented. It has everything you could need, and is put together exactly how it should be. If you have a dog, or want country walks in the Garden of England, this is the place. Bridge is a fabulous little village, with amazing dining options. James is a perfect gentlemen and could not be more helpful. This place is a solid 10.

Fantastic spacious property
As soon as we walked into the cottage we were surprised with how spacious it was. The garden and outdoor areas were fantastic and our 2 dogs loved having so much space to explore. As a family we also enjoyed making use of the rope swing and football table. There was everything we needed at the cottage. We were made to feel very welcome by our host. We genuinely loved our stay and would highly recommend this place. We are definitely planning on a return visit.

Quite cottage close to Canterbury
Charming cottage in a quiet village close to Canterbury. You will find one bedroom downstairs with bunk beds. The kitchen/living room area is very spacious. The kitchen is very well equipped. Upstairs, you have 2 double bedrooms and the main bathroom with a large shower and a bath. The outside space is shared with the cottage next door but you have your separate patio area and the use of the annex. James the owner is a lovely person, very responsive and really helpful. It was really nice to have met him. All in all, we've had a lovely time and we will definitely come back. Thanks again James for your hospitality.

Host profile image
Hi, I'm James and this is my wife Ayako. We have two kids aged 12 and 14. I was born in Kent, grew up in London, worked in Japan for over 20 years and moved back to the UK in 2012. I've sailed a lot over the years but recently do mostly long walks around the UK and around Bridge. We enjoy camping and staying in other people's holiday lets in the UK and France. I used to spend 14 hours a day in a suit but now I'm either digging, planting or painting a wall !
