The owners contacted us before our arrival date and gave some very useful information. On arrival Kim came to see us and gave us an overview of the village and the area. He was most helpful and very welcoming. A comprehensive welcome pack was left for us, for which we were very grateful. The cottage is equipped with everything you could need and more, and is very warm and comfortable - the beds were fabulous! We were unable to get the TV to work so Kim and Hilary's daughter-in-law came to sort it out for us - in a matter of minutes! The views from the upstairs windows over the ancient village roof-tops and the fields beyond was to die for, as was the village itself, which comes straight out of a Miss Marple murder mystery, and so close to Canterbury too. We didn't use our car once during our stay, opting to take the train from Chilham station (a 15-20 minute walk from the Barn) into Ashford (for the retail outlet) and Canterbury in the other direction. Both took about 10 minutes. Remember to take your torch (I believe one is supplied) if you are walking from the station after dark as the road back to the village is unlit with no pavement in parts. We ate bar nibbles at The White Horse at the top end of The Street on the evening we arrived, and had a fun evening there on Friday for the Jazz evening. We ate at The Woolpack, at the bottom end of The Street, on Saturday evening which was beautiful and had a great ambience. I truly did not want to leave, but as we go to Canterbury a couple of times a years, we will definitely be back. Thank you to Kim and Hilary we loved it!

Lovely period cottage, parking a little tight if you have a large car.
We decided to leave the dog behind and are glad we did as the 'garden" is where you park the car and has limited space, it has a small shingled area which is split level to the car parking area. I think it would be helpful to include a photo but understand why they don't as it would have put us off if we had our Labrador with us. We had to ask for glasses to be delivered as there were very few in the kitchen - this happened promptly and the management company were very responsive. I fed back that it was difficult to dry the towels as only one small towel radiator in the downstairs bathroom which requires the heating to be on. Hooks on the back of the door don't really help as there is a slight dampness to the property (old property with thick walls) and despite opening windows when in the property, we resulted to putting the heating on downstairs which isn't ideal when its hot outside. The bedrooms are a decent size but no wardrobes, just some hooks on the wall and a few coat hangers, but plenty of drawer space. It has a good location, but a busy road. There is a well stocked local store and the pub had good food. enjoyable stay but it shouldn't be given 5 ticks, 3 to 4 would be more appropriate.

We very much enjoyed our stay here at Hollytree Cottage.
The beds were very comfortable. The sofas were also deep and comfortable (which isn't always the case even in cottages in a similar price range). We liked that the smart TV also had a sound bar, which meant that the sound quality when watching films was so, so much better than without. The kitchen had plenty of counter surfaces for cooking. Both the fridge and freezer were large. We also appreciated that the kitchen table was large enough for 8 people and not just 6. The shower had good water pressure, although it was slightly inconvenient having to come downstairs in the night to use the toilet. If anyone in your party is elderly, then be careful as there is a step up when walking from two of the bedrooms to the stairs before descending again - so you might want to help them or ensure they switch the corridor light on and take their time. Overall, we thought the property was attractively presented and comfortable. We enjoyed our stay and would definitely consider returning.

Weâve been to a few cottages over the past two years through Sykes Cottages, but I have to say that Hollytree Cottage has been my favourite so far.
Really comfortable sofas and beds. Lovely kitchen/diner where we spent most of our time playing games or chatting while doing a puzzle. Lovely area with lovely walks for us and our dog, with some interesting historical finds, such as the old disused/dismantled viaduct in the woods or recreating photos from old 1800âs photos from different points in the village from the books in Chipping Norton museum. We stayed in one of the hot August heatwave weeks and with the curtains closed, and a fan on in the kitchen, it actually stayed quite cool. The cottage alone was interesting when looking at the photos on the kitchen shelf, and realising that it was once two cottages, and then working out where the original features would have been. Even tho itâs on a corner in the middle of the village, it was really quiet, as itâs not a busy village. We had such a lovely peaceful relaxing week. We would definitely recommend staying here.

Great location in a lovely village.
We enjoyed the short walk to the local pubs and brewery. having a shop and butchers centrally as well meant that basic food requirements could be met without the need to drive further afield. Smart TV and WiFi is a must we feel in current world and these were both good for our stay. Points that we feel should be addressed - overall cleanliness was not the best. Many cobwebs in most rooms (not fresh cobwebs, these have been there for some time). Dog hairs on rug in living room. Plastic bowl under one of sofas showing a lack of attention to detail in the cleaning. From a facilities perspective some bins for use in the bedrooms would be useful. A spot light is out in the bathroom. And the outside security light appears to be broken and would continually turn itself on and off through the night. Also a time of year thing for us but no clocks had been moved forward an hour so all clocks were wrong, including the heating.
