Mountfield Farm Cottage

||oven broken shower trap full of hair couldn’t sit in the garden as very overgrown with brambles and thistles.

doesnt look like the picture as drive was cover in weeds. A bin for dog waste was full to the brim.sink cupboard in the utility room was full of rubbish a rusting dish and a filthy cloth.on stripping the bed to leave there is a piece.off filthy foam.very nice hosts but totally out of their depth.

Very nice cottage, we enjoyed it very much.

Nice owners who helped out with problems. Cottage is easily large enough for 6 people, pub next door is also very good. Our young child liked visiting the animals on the farm. Maintenance can be better. Oven knobs are broken, some painting needs to be done, garden needs weeding and some repairs. We missed a vacuum cleaner, extra garbage bags and the detailed recycling instructions for the area.

We and our Siamese beauties enjoyed a blissful 3 days in this paradise-like place.

The cottage itself is a pure luxury. Fantastically maintained, modernised, super clean, comfortable in every detail (particularly the beds!). There was a feeling of ‘fresh and new’ about every piece of furniture and equipment. You could tell everything was just top quality about it. High standard. The hosts are evidently very special people. They welcome visitors by sharing their 30 acres of land with hardly any reservation. They encourage visiting their beautiful animals: Dexter cows, Norwegian horses, friendly goats, cats and dogs. We were also treated to two dozens of complimentary eggs for goodbye (which I mentioned I wanted to simply buy and take back to London but instead I was gifted them!) This whole scenario makes it an unprecedented cottage accommodation. We’ve been to several places here at Sykes, but it is very unusual to encounter hosts prepared to share their beauty spot with their guests to such a degree! Thank you!

Mountfield Farm Cottage does not profess to be a 5 star boutique holiday cottage.

What it does offer is clean, comfortable, well appointed and truly dog friendly! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay, despite the extreme heat. There was plenty of everything we needed for us and our dogs, from the very nice welcome pack, good hot showers and a secluded enclosed garden. There were covers provided for the sofas, towels for the dogs and even a water bowl. Owners are very relaxed and were happy for us to walk the dogs on their land. There is also a walk along the canal. We didn’t get to go to the many many places to visit near by due to the extreme heat but will be back again. There is a cut through from garden to a really lovely pub.

Amazing place to stay for our family and dogs.

We particularly loved the wood burner and the tennis court! Comfy beds and really lovely touches like the wine, cake, dog towel and bowl etc. Excellent pub in stumbling distance, easy distance to Rye and Battle.

This is a wonderful cottage in a lovely area.

The cottage is beautifully decorated, clean and welcoming with everything you need for a comfortable stay. We made good use of the tennis court which is available for guests to use. There is a fabulous pub round the corner at the end of the drive, and a huge range of interesting places to visit locally. A great stay and we have already booked to return next year!

We had a wonderful time at Mountfield Farm over Christmas.

The cottage was very comfortable and well maintained. The kitchen is fully equipped and we easily cooked our Christmas dinner. We felt very welcomed by the lovely hosts. This is also a truly dog friendly cottage which is so important when travelling with your pets. We have stayed at others that state dog friendly but really are not so it was an absolute pleasure to stay and very relaxing. I would definitely stay here again

A nice property in a beautiful location but unfortunately it needs modernising very bad bed and mattress just needs a bit of tlc and upgrade on cleaning

We were actually quite disappointed with this holiday.

In the photos, everything looked so nice and tidy. The reality was quite different. This cottage needs a good update and a good clean. We couldn't open the windows anywhere. After a lot of struggling, we managed to open the windows in the bedrooms a bit, but then they wouldn't close again. The shower is full of limescale, and the sprayer emits three jets because it's full of limescale. There's no separate sprayer in the shower, so you have to rinse the walls with cups, which isn't convenient. The bed in the en-suite bedroom is in urgent need of replacing because we felt like we were going to lie down on the floor at any moment. The garden is anything but well-maintained (the garden furniture from the summer is still scattered around the garden, which doesn't feel pleasant). It's a shame that we had to experience this, because you could really make something beautiful here, but it would take some work. We definitely won't be bacK.

Faye & Wes are first class hosts.

Nothing is too much trouble to them for their guests. I had 3 grandchildren with me who were allowed to be children. The farm animals were a highlight for the children. Walking nearby added wildlife viewing to our holiday. I rang the bells at St Matthew church over the road. Great, well equipped cottage & I would like return there when I can.

The farmhouse was warm and welcoming and provided us with space, both in and out, to relax.

We enjoyed exploring the farm, seeing the animals and the convenience of the pub and church closeby.

A lovely, surprisingly spacious and yet cosy cottage which is well equipped and homely in a very peaceful location.

Friendly and welcoming hosts. A nice enclosed garden for dogs and a pub close by.

We really enjoyed our stay at Mountfield.

The accommodation was excellent and we felt at home immediately. Our hosts were very friendly and welcoming on our arrival and on the odd occasions we bumped into them during our stay. The location in a small village very close to the Woolpack pub was fantastic, and it was very easy to access most areas of Kent and East Sussex. We would recommend this to anyone.

The cottage is in a beautiful setting and is ideally situated for exploring Kent and Sussex.

It was very comfortable and peaceful. We enjoyed being able to walk around the grounds each day and greeting owners goats, horses and cows. There is also a lovely pub which serves great food a 5 minute walk away.

The cottage was perfect.

It was situated in a beautiful, tranquil setting and had every convenience. The owners were friendly, helpful and very welcoming with a few ‘goodies’ left for our arrival. We would highly recommend it to oldies like us and to young families who would delight in what the farm offers.

When entering the cottage we found the property was in need of some loving care, it was dirty, under the chairs in the living room and under the beds.

there were spider cobwebs on the windows and walls. the oven looked like it had not been cleaned for years. The bed frame in the on-suite was unsafe to use, the head and foot board was rocking as the joints to the base had come apart. The end bathroom showerbase had black mould and the down stair toilet door could not be locked due to poorly fitted hand lever lock. The hedge when entering through the 5 bar gate was totally over grown making it impossible to enter the property without scraping our car. The garden grass to the property had not been cut along with weeds close to the patio doors and the dead flowers in the tubs. The outside table and chairs were unsafe and needed replacing. the tennis court was uneven due to weeds growing through the tarmac. The electric car charger is positioned in the corner could not be used as the owner charges there vehicles through the night and part of the day, it can be difficult to manoeuvre your vehicle pass the owners car as you need to positioned your car straight when driving out through the gate due to a tree stump positioned a cars width way from the hedge. The cottage is in the village of Warehorne just 5 minutes to Hamstreet, a very pretty village, some good walks but it is near to the railway lines. This could be a lovely cottage if they just spent some time investing, maintaining and cleaning the cottage.

Absolutely delightful.

Everything we needed for our stay was provided, very comfortable and attentive hosts. Really enjoyed the freedom of being able to wander around the farm meeting the animals, watching the amazing variety of butterflies and moths, birds and dragonflies. The welcome goodies on the table, as we stepped into the kitchen, was really appreciated after a long hot drive. Thank you for a memorable stay, wish it could have been longer.

Holiday cottage ok but could be made very nice, no welcome pack, coffee, tea or even a pint of milk left.

We hebben een heel fijne week gehad in Kent.

Het huisje is goed ingericht en biedt veel ruimte. Fijn dat er twee badkamers zijn. Ook kun je goed buiten zitten, al stond het gras wel vrij hoog. We misten een koffiezetapparaat. Dat is wel een aandachtspunt, maar verder is het een heerlijke vakantieplek.

Our stay was fantastic the cottage was perfect with everything we could need, the covers that were supplied for the sofas were very much appreciated as our older dog does like to snuggle up in the evenings.

It was lovely to be able to explore the farm & meet the animals it is also the perfect base to explore the local area and attractions.

We had a very pleasant week at Mountfield Farm Cottage.

The owners were very welcoming and on hand to deal with any issues, but were not intrusive. The smallholding is a delight especially the goats. House is comfortable and warm, fairly well equipped. The pub is a short walk away and well worth a visit. There are plenty of walks from the house, and there’s plenty to do in the local area. We were there to see family and I would certainly consider staying there again. Thanks.

Had a lovely stay and cottage is in a great location.

The cottage is cosy and overall a good standard. Not having live tv could be an issue for some guests as not easy to work. Kitchen was ok but not a lot of space to prepare food and more utensils such as baking trays and a better selection of pans are needed. Beds are comfy and bedrooms are tastefully decorated, additional blankets or a thicker duvet is needed. Lovely outdoor space and the tennis court was excellent and being able to explore the grounds and see the animals was a highlight. We had a lovely restful stay. If you want a quiet relaxing break which is super close to a fabulous pub this is the cottage for you!

Instructions for the television would help.

We found it a challenge in the beginning, plus no live TV! We wanted to watch the 6 Nations!!! Apart from that it was our second time at the cottage and we loved the walks, garden and local pub!!

Lovely house,very comfortable and warm.

Well equipped and spacious. Lots of local walks although extremely muddy in January. Good access to surrounding area and beaches. Some areas require attention to cleaning, cobwebs behind wardrobe in end bedroom( we were looking for a spare socket) and hair in shower traps. Net curtain only over shared bathroom window and downstairs loo,not great when you have the light on indoors. Unfortunately the lawned area is not enclosed as listed,so dogs have to be on the lead at all times,there are gates they can go through and goats that may access the garden area around the house.

We decided, at the very last minute to go away for Christmas and hunted around for somewhere that wouldn't require us to travel for hours but also provide a complete change for us for a few days.

Mountfield Farm Cottage met all our requirements and more. Spacious bedrooms,snug living room with log burning fire. Well appointed kitchen, farm on the doorstep, quite rural location with a pub within walking distance and about 10-15 min from Ashford. The hosts were very helpful, we really enjoyed our stay, and we think it made our Christmas a little bit more special than it would have been if we stayed at home. We would definitely stay again.

A really lovely and welcoming stay over New Year.

The home had everything we needed for our family and friends too. We had a lovely welcome of nibbles, wine and milk which was a lovely gesture - thank you. The log fire was pre-lit and very warm. We'd highly recommend staying here at this beautiful home. We brought our furry friend too and it was well equipped with blankets, towels and a dog water bowl too. The local pub was a hit on NYE too.

A great place to stay, would go there again.

Very comfortable and spacious property. The farm is great and we had a wonderful time.

The property was very comfortable, had everything we needed and the owners were helpful and very welcoming.

There were many wonderful walks around the property and we loved seeing all the animals.

Had a wonderful stay at Mountfield Farm at the end of October.

The grounds were a bonus lots of walks and a canal nearby. Property is well equipped, the kitchen had everything needed for cooking and entertaining our in laws. The lounge had excellent quality sofas and the beds were very comfortable. Our host was very welcoming. The only thing we would suggest is that the sign is not easy to read from the road but this is a minor detail. Church nearby is open and there are secondhand books to buy with an honesty box for payment we bought six.

The cottage was really lovely, comfortable and warm.

The owner was gracious and helpful. They even provided covers for the settee’s so your dog Can sit on the settee with you if this is what you want. We loved our stay and have booked again for next year. There was everything you would need, right down to a bottle of water in every room. Milk, eggs, orange juice and a lovely cake for us on arrival.

Such a peaceful and relaxing place to stay.

Very comfortable with plenty of room. Everything you could need provided. Helpful and friendly owners easily available, if needed. We were lucky enough to have a full week of sunshine and normally would have run out of things to do, but still didn't quite fit everything in. The wildlife park at Port Lympe is worth a visit, whilst Canterbury Cathedral and Dover Castle are not far away, both wonderful. The last time I travelled on the Romney & Dymchurch miniature railway was 70 years ago, so that was good to do again. We thoroughly recommend this cottage.

Lovely cottage with very friendly and helpful host.

Great for dog owners with walks from doorstep and good very dog friendly pub only 100 yards away. Comfortable bedrooms and good showers in a well located peaceful village, which is close enough to many points of interest and both woodland and beach walks.

Excellent location and property

Lovely cottage and gardens.

Very fresh and clean. Great setting and friendly local pub.

Our stay was made perfect by the owner's welcoming approach and access to the farm.

The cottage is well thought out and equipped. Keep on top of maintenance.

We stayed in February 2024 and had a lovely time!

The cottage was really well equipped, beds comfortable, all was beautifully clean. Our hosts were friendly and welcoming. Great location in quaint village.

Mountfield farm cottage is a very good cottages, it’s very easy to start a walk from the cottage, a lovely pub nearby and a lot of places are close to the cottage.

A lot of space in the cottage and it was warm and cozy. We have had a lovely time.

We really loved our stay at Mountfield Farm.

The cottage was beautiful, comfortable and cosy and close to lots of things to do. We are all looking forward to going back there as soon as we get the chance. Thank you!
