Children loved the pool!- very warm and they spent hours playing! Beautiful, well-kept grounds, two fridges (up and down stairs) , football table and air hockey was fun! Beds were comfy with plenty of towels and bedding. Few niggles- WiFi was poor and there was no service in area for own 4G (Tv did keep losing signal too) . Also the living room windows were broken on arrival.
First class pool made our holiday. Clean and well maintained and kept at a nice temperature for lounging around. Bi-fold doors dificult to open and close, probably suffering at the hands of inexperienced people! House equipped with quality furniture and fittings. It does get hot upstairs during a heat wave, but just about tolerable with correct use of curtains and windows. Several niggles with lack of maintenance, but nothing too serious to prevent our enjoyment. Would love to come again.
Absolutely beautiful property! Spacious grounds, thoughtfully equipped, very well maintained. The pool area was wonderful and warm, and seems to have been recently refurbished. The local pub appears to have closed but it was only a short drive to nearby towns.We enjoyed a very peaceful stay here, thanks a lot.
Exactly as described. The pool was perfect and the kids loved it. Even had a picnic in the grounds while they played football. Cannot wait to come back.
Honeywood lodge was well equipped for everything you could need. Pool was a little on the cold side but didnât stop the kids from spending most of their time in there.
Property is lovely with the huge added benefit of a private heated pool which we could use whenever we wanted. This was a huge hit for our children in addition to the games room. The living area was adequate with the required necessities. The location of the property is incredibly peaceful but supermarkets and Canterbury are within easy reach by car.
Our family enjoyed our visit to Honeywood Lodge, and look forward to returning soon. Our son loves swimming, so we made good use of the pool daily. The grounds are lovely, secluded and quiet (excited to hear an owl on our last night!). As we have young children, the absence of a washer was not ideal for a weekâs stay, but we made it work. Excellent communication throughout,
Fantastic holiday property - facilities are amazing
I would strongly recommend this property for families looking for a holiday house that will keep them entertained.
The pool was fabulous - warmer than we'd expected and big enough for laps or playing. If our visit had been in summer the bi-fold and balcony would have been lovely. The games space was much used and the grounds are fantastic.
Check in was easy. The house was clean, although the cleaning products had been left out on the living space floor which i think was an oversight. The kitchen was well stocked for cooking and eating and i could see useful extras like baby-baths and highchairs had our children been younger.
The location requires a car but as long as you have one is a lovely setting. Canterbury is a short drive away along with a choice of coastal towns. Kent has a host of historic sites to visit which all kept us well occupied.
We would be very happy to come back here again - a wonderful holiday had by all!
Well the pool room is amazing, as are the garden and extensive private grounds. The owners big house is joined onto the property, but they are not in residence. And the property carers were very quick to sort out a hot water issue that we had. The pool is of course the reason to visit, but water cold enough that we would have enjoyed it even more in our wetsuits :-)
We stayed for 10 days but unfortunately didn't check that there's no washing machine, so can recommend The Canterbury Laundrette if you donât happen to bring enough underwear for your holiday! As for the surroundings, then Dover Castle is a must-visit, as is a walk along Whitstable beach, and checking out the Shell Grotto in Margate. All in all, we loved our stay at Honeywood Lodge and highly recommend it as a short break.
A gem of a property in a beautiful location. Amazing swimming pool and extensive grounds where the kids could play safely. Absolutely superb. Beaches a short drive away and Canterbury centre is definitely worth a visit for the Cathedral and shopping.
