Superb location in center of Lenham. Exceptional staff. Very nice room. The restaurant/pub was very nice.

Note that rooms are on the second floor with no lift so those with mobility issues should be aware.

"Exceptional"

10.0

The staff is very friendly. We traveled by bike, and they made sure our bikes were stored safely. The rooms are nice, big, and clean. Value-for-money wise, this is a no-brainer when staying in the area. We would advise taking the delicious breakfast!

No complaints.

"Nice enough pub but the catering was disorganised / out of stock and we never got our bfast in the morning because t"

6.0

Comfortable bed. Good location for Eurotunnel Le Shuttle.

We had dinner at the property. It was reasonably busy but not at all crazy busy. But many of the starters and mains were unavailable. The first three bottles of wine I ordered were also all unavailable. We were leaving early the next morning so the dinner staff said we could get breakfast (included in our rate) at 7.15 and that a staff member would be there. We turned up at 7.15am and the lady on duty got in a panic and said bfast didn’t start until 8am. The lady rustled up done cereal and coffee, but we didn’t get the cooked breakfast that was included.
