The inn is of traditional design, pub downstairs, accommodation upstairs. Very quiet, rural location, very pretty. The room was very clean, food was excellent. I cannot praise the staff enough, always smiling and trying to make guests comfortable.

Excellent location for walking across the north downs. We were upgraded to the four poster room with roll top bath which was outstanding. Warm greeting and staff couldn’t do enough for us during our one night stay. Excellent food in the restaurant would highly recommend.

Exceptionally friendly , helpful and genuine staff; thanks to Sam, Rachael and Kat. Well done in difficult Covid times. Lovely sofa and warm fire. Exceptional country walks across woods and fields and close to the North Downs way. Very good breakfast and dinner. Superbly dog friendly. Great location for Faversham and the north Kent close.

Excellent service. Staff were very friendly and went out of their way to make our stay comfortable. Nothing was too much trouble. Excellent organisation to meet covid compliance. It felt safe and was extremely clean. It was obvious the staff work very hard to make your visit exceptional.

The breakfast was good . The pub is set in a lovely location. The staff are helpful and friendly.

Very good covid arrangements, well thought out, consistently applied and gave us confidence Very warm, friendly and efficient staff Good food and drink

They had room for us last minute... very good thank

Very friendly welcome. Rooms recently renovated. Delicious food. Exceptional staff.

The location is just far enough away from any large town to give you a sense of being in the countryside but without feeling isolated

The room was lovely, modern bathroom and excellent freshly cooked breakfast every day!
