Tumbleweed Cottage

I cannot rate Tumbleweed Cottage highly enough. 5 Stars are not enough. Seff and Saan are the perfect hosts and made us feel like we were visiting family. The cottage has a very homely feel, is spotless, and is extremely well laid out. We spent 2 nights there and were very reluctant to leave as it felt like leaving very close friends. I would highly recommend booking dinner during your stay. We will undoubtedly be returning. Many thanks guys for being perfect hosts.

Rated Tumbleweed 5/5 simply because I couldn’t rate it higher- I spend far too much time in hotels and B&Bs and they could all learn from the hosts ! Amazing attention to detail really made my stay here standout as one of my favourites of 2024 ( and probably all time !) Well furnished comfortable without feeling over the top the owners just go that bit further to make your stay memorable- rooms are well laid out with sumptuous mattresses to ensure maximum comfort and great sleep! Food cannot go unmentioned it’s very well prepared great portions and locally sourced where possible.

We really enjoyed our stay at this lovely cottage.The hosts were amazing so friendly and welcoming. Nothing was too much trouble for them.The room was very nice and cosy.Food was excellent fresh ingredients cooked and prepared on site.We would definitely stay here again.

We have just arrived home after staying overnight at Tumbleweed Cottage. Our stay was most enjoyable, just wished we could have stayed longer, next time we will definitely stay longer. We were greeted on arrival by Seth and Shaan, Seth offered to carry our extremely heavy overnight bag to the room for us, which we appreciated Thank you. Our room and ensuite were beautifully presented. Tea, coffee and snacks were provided which was a lovely touch, again thank you. We booked an evening meal at short notice which we were extremely grateful for. Our meal was beautifully presented, as was the breakfast this morning. We would just like to say a big thank you to you both, for making our stay at Tumbleweed Cottage extra special, nothing was too much trouble. Thank you once again for making us feel extremely welcome in your beautiful cottage, what a lovely experience, we will definitely be back.

It was in a very scenic area, good views from our rear bedroom window. Ample room and TV with Kettle with tea and coffee, snacks and biscuits. The bed was very soft, but then I’m no lightweight! Was King Size so ample room for myself and my partner. The en suite had very creaky floorboards, as did the whole bedroom. Towels and flannels provided. Even toothbrushes in a sealed bag, soap and handwash. Thankfully, I had pre-requested a walk in shower as am disabled but didn’t realise the room was upstairs. About 12-14 very steep stairs. The couple who run it are very sweet, and explained everything in detail. Breakfast choices on a cardboard hanger to leave out by 9pm the night before. Full English, half English, toast, croissants, juices, tea, coffees and sauces in tap. The whole cottage with 3 or 4 rooms, was quiet at night, which is important. Parking was a bit tight. There are 3-4 spaces, which when we went to an Engagement party the night we stayed, returned at 11:35 and there wasn’t enough room to park outside the front door, so had to park under an apple tree. We did ask if they were considering expanding to include accessible rooms. They explained that the room near the front door (currently storage room) they were thinking of making into a room in the future. The road its in is very long, and its entrance is tucked away, thankfully they told us there was a flag at the entrance gate. We enjoyed it and would recommend it. The unfortunate thing was we were both very poorly by 7pm that night we returned to Kent. With very upset stomach’s and myself suffering projectile vomiting! We didn’t eat on our way home as were pretty full but happy to give them the benefit of the doubt, but it took a few days to return to normal eating unfortunately! Some nice touches in the breakfast room, some candles lit at night to add to the ambience and pretty ceiling decorations. Thank you Stef and Shaan.

Shaan and Sef made us both feel very welcomed, the rooms are very well presented, clean and comfortable and the breakfasts were great. In fact it was that good we stopped over on our way back from the North of England- also a great location just of the A1.
