Quiet village stay.

We had a lovely weekend stay. The room was comortable and itcas at the back so quiet. The breakfast was great and the garden at the back was a pleasant place to sit with a drink. Its well situated not too far from canterbury or whitstable we visited both.

Really nice pub with excellent food

Had a very pleasant stay at the White Horse. Large car park with plenty of spaces, nice refurbished room in an old pub so clean and comfortable but without losing it character, excellent powerfull shower which could practically blow your nipples off and a very good range of tea and coffee in the room including decaf coffee bags. Very good fast wifi. Excellent supper in the restaurant with beautifully cooked vegetables. All in all a thoroughly enjoyable stay.

Comfortable stay. A*

Lovely comfortable and clean room. Bathroom door got a bit stuck but wasnt a massive issue. Bed was so comfortable. It was a warm night but an excellent touch providing a fan for the room. Loved that there was lots of options of apps on the smart tv. Great for a relaxing evening. Food and service for dinner and breakfast was good too. Will definitely be back

A fantastic hidden treasure

I spent a lovely night at the White Horse, a very unique and historical coaching inn. The room was gorgeous with a massive comfy bed, a lovely sofa and a big clawfoot bath with a shower. It was clean and the lovely bathrobes were bliss. Great quality tea and coffee options in the room were a nice touch too. Staff were welcoming and helpful. The village is quaint with a great history. There's plenty of off street parking and lots of nice walks nearby. Food and drink options at the inn are good too. If I'm in the area again I'll definitely head back there.

Perfect stay for Dover port..

Thank you for your friendly welcome and cheerful staff. The bar, restaurant and bedroom is beautifully designed and decorated. The big bed is really comfortable and we loved the new bathroom with rolltop bath and sunflower shower. Fabulous drinks and breakfast. Only 30 mins to Dover port...we'll be back!!

Fantastic stay, faultless! Great warm, informative check in. Beautiful bedroom with lovely bed linen and a surprisingly spacious bathroom considering it’s a 16c coaching inn. Lovely extra thoughtful touches in room including luxury toiletries, homemade shortbread, real coffee and a cafetière. There was even an honesty pantry with food and drink treats in case the amazing dinner and breakfast wasn’t enough! We will definitely return.
