We loved our stay at Little Bourne, the cottage is so homely and has everything you need. Karen and Simon are brilliant hosts, very welcoming and helpful. The cottage is super quiet and has beautiful walks around. We used it as a base to explore the countryside, a short drive to Hever Castle, Chartwell House and Emmetts Gardens. There is so much toRead more do in the area, we will visit again soon. Hide
