    Apart from the weather, absolutely nothing

    Owners, Raphael and Michael, lovely friendly and helpful people. Location brilliant, quiet with great surroundings. Excellent base for exploring the area. Cottage has all the necessary furnishings etc to be comfortable but not crampt. Plenty of good food to be had locally. Will happily return in the future

    The countertop oven is a little tricky to cook well on but works fine for reheating food.

    Location is great, but also secluded. Lovely views. Very well set up and clean. Very friendly and helpful hosts.

    Nothing, the cottage is wonderful

    From the moment you arrive at Holmdale cottage you know you have found a great little gem of a place to stay. Myself and my two boys decided on a little jolly to Rye and magically found this wonderful cottage. Once we arrived we were greeted by the very kind and friendly Micheal and Raphaelle. The boys loved that our cottage was hidden away, walking through a little gate with flowers and vines into a secret garden. The double doors opened out into a beautiful clean and tidy lounge/ kitchen. And cute little cottage. Perfect for our little family trip. Everything we needed including some chocolate for mummy and also some wine for mummy too ha... A little door that leads to the sunny side to the cottage and a little seating area that my son loved to sit in, in the shade but also sunny. The beds were very comfortable, even the sofa bed. This cottage is a truly lovely little hide away and so peaceful and quiet. The hosts Micheal and Raphaele were exceptional from the moment we arrived. Very helpful and kind. We would definitely recommend this place to stay ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

    Kitchen work top space a bit limited. Walking from the cottage to a nearby hotel restaurant tricky as there is no footpath for the first 200yds approx; had to walk on road/grass verge.

    We were met and "hosted" by Michael who was very welcoming, friendly and helpful; welcome pack inc wine, water, milk - much appreciated. Very peaceful location close to Rye in attractive rural location. Lovely cottage with private outside areas inc chairs and sun loungers. Very comfortable bed. Cottage was spotless throughout. Excellent bathroom with plenty of hooks for hanging towels, etc; great shower.

    Absolutely nothing.

    I loved every single part of this property and holiday. The cottage was beautifully appointed, clean, lovely garden and outdoor space, and overall comfortable. You have the friendliest on site managers who are always available and so very helpful. This is the ideal getaway for a couple and their dogs.

    The host Micheal welcomes you when you arrive and shows you around the cottage. The location is beautiful with a private patio and large lawn all backing on to open fields where you can watch the rabbits play. The cottage is very clean a well equipped with every thing you could possibly need. There are lovely personal touches with a welcoming bottle of wine and box of chocolates. I would definitely love to go back.

    Beautiful little cottage in a lovely rural setting. The space is very well considered and kitted out so you can easily cook, eat and relax.
