Very comfortable and well fitted out. The enclosed grass area was great for our dogs.

We had a great week staying at The Apple Barn, helped by the good weather. Although compact, the kitchen was very well equipped, the bed was comfy and there was a good shower; the attention to detail overall was appreciated. I wrongly assumed that as it wasn't on a main road or in a village it would be a quiet location, so was somewhat surprised how busy the road was resulting in traffic noise from very early in the morning. Great location for visiting places such as Sissinghurst, Scotney Castle and Bodiam etc by car but difficult to explore from the cottage by foot or on bike due to the busy country lanes and lack of linking non-overgrown footpaths.
