Value for money, convient location close to motorway links but still quiet and pleasant stay, the bed mattress was a little hard for me which was only issue.

The accommodation itself couldn't be faulted. Friendly staff, fresh towels daily, all very nice.
I would however strongly recommend an out-of-hours point of contact in the event of getting locked out of the room.
In fairness, it's entirely my own fault that I locked myself out to begin with (won't be forgetting that mistake in a hurry). But if it wasn't for an upstairs tenant being able to get hold of the correct person to let me back in, I would've had no choice but to try to sleep outside.
It's no good listing the pub's number for contact at a time when nobody's available to answer, and this did sour my last night's stay somewhat.
I was very apologetic to Tracey about the disturbance, & had forewarned her about the messages I'd left on the phone before leaving (I hope they were not deemed as anything untoward).

Lovely accommodation, comfy and spacious with everything required. Beds great.
Within feet of very busy road so expect road noise inside and out.

The inn is in the middle of nowhere but the rooms are cozy & the pub is great. Strong wifi signal adds a lot of value as well.

A very convenient place to stay near Maidstone. Easy to find. My later arrival was easily accommodated and the stay was quiet and comfortable. A comfortable bed and a good shower highlighted my stay. Car parking is close and plentiful. Basic stay with NO breakfast but a food menu is available for the evening meal.

Had to leave the key for the room in the door, as the main building was locked up when I left. Not a big drama though

Had a nice night's stay in a twin bedroom ensuite. Very clean with decent furniture and towels. The ensuite could do with a bit of attention; the temperature control for the shower needs loosening off as it was very hard to change the very hot setting it was stuck on (Scalding). The extractor fan didn't work either. Could do with a fan when the weather is hot as room got very stuffy and hot during the night. Overall a very pleasant stay.

Comfortable bed, friendly staff, lovely pub. Some background traffic noise as near to a major road. Liquid soap and shower gel provided but why no small bar of soap for washing your hands.

Staff were helpful & friendly. Rooms were at the back of the pub in a converted out building. Small, nicely decorated, bed comfortable but they must have a damp problem. The rooms really smell damp. Which is a shame as they were reasonably priced.
