“A simple and straightforward breakfast which was perfect for me - croissants and coffee on days 1 and 2 with french toast on day 3 - all hand prepared and delicious. 2 Orchard Gate is a few miles outside Canterbury and yet is ideally situated for...”

“A very warm welcome by the host, a nice clean room, added coffee on arrival to boot and breakfast the next morning. The tip we got to visit Chilham turned out to be quite good - lovely surroundings, and a very nice garden!”

“This was located exactly where I needed and the price was good enough that it made sense to stay in Thanet rather than driving back to London and then coming back the next morning. The hostess is great and is trying her best to make it all work....”

This home is very homely and is placed in a naturally beautiful area , there are some lovely walks near me and the house is placed close to several beaches and interesting towns. I can recommend some lovely places to eat and drink . Most of all I just want you to feel welcome. Due to the location you will need a car or your own transport. There is a bus stop close by for a bus into Canterbury or Faversham .
This is my home which I live in and I teach at a school so I need you to check out during the week by 7.30a.m. so would appreciate it if guests were respectable of that .Check in times are 5.30 pm ,I am flexible but no arrival times past 9 p.m. I do have two cats but they are not allowed in the room just so you know should you have any allergies.
I have been very lucky to have received some lovely guests, this is a quiet area and I would like your stay to be a peaceful one.
There are some lovely local pubs around this area that are walkable . Lovely walks through orchards and my home is located in a quiet area . Close to several beaches and beautiful towns .
