One of the best
Review Submitted: June 17, 2008
Date of Stay: May 2008
One of the best villa's we've stayed in, clean & well equipped with a superb BBQ area. Due to there being a lot of rain prior to & during our stay, bed linen felt damp, altho' I doubt this would be a problem when the weather is as it should be! Garden very private, well maintained & with wonderful views. Swimming pool clean & well maintained, with a weekly visit from the "pool man". Excellent maid service, with clean towels twice a week & change of bed linen weekly. A problem with hot water was dealt with promptly. Annex was clean & well appointed, altho' we did feel a bit remote from the main house. Garden pond might be a problem for over adventerous toddlers, but we had no problem with a 2 1/2 year old. A car is essential. Drive/parking area a bit tight, particularly with more than one car, altho' there is a parking bay just outside the gates. Restaurants & beaches only 15 minutes or so by car, there are non within walking distance. Would we stay there again? Most certainly.
Owner's Response: So glad you enjoyed your stay but sorry about the weather.
We always appreciate comments and suggestions from our guests.
We try and upgrade the villa every year. This past winter we have refurbished the swimming pool, replanted a large bed in the garden and put in more trees to protect the privacy of visitors. We have also installed an enormous swing set for children in the garden.
In the coming year we are planning to install a gazebo at the top of the field to take full advantage of the magnificent view, to install a 'horse' tyre swing for children on one of the the fig trees, to provide a table tennis table for the use of guests. We will also continue to make improvements in the garden
The point made about the pond is an important one and we are conscious of the dangers to small children. We will install an alarm system for the swimming pool, which is unfenced. As for the fishpond, we don't intend to fence it in, but we will put up warning signs to ensure toddlers are always supervised in the garden.
We hope to Welcome Kentish lad back again.
