Friendly and welcoming.
Pros:

I have stayed 3 times now, and every time I'm made to feel welcome and the rooms are always clean, tidy, and comfortable. I can also thoroughly recommend the Indian restaurant next door! I often get my meal delivered to my room so I can relax.

Cons:

Wish breakfast was served earlier than 9am!

Comfortable, excellent food and friendly
Pros:

The room was excellent value for money. The aircon was really useful. The food in the attached restaurant was outstanding and very reasonable for the quality. They even have their own veggie patch for the restaurant.

Cons:

You need to drive to get to town. Though you could eat on site and drink a beer from the restaurant in the garden. As I was visiting to go walking, it would have been nice to have a few printouts of walks in the area and possibly information about things to do in the area. This is a small recommendation though, as I really enjoyed the stay.

Friendly hotel on the outskirts of Tenterden, but check that the room matches what you booked.
Pros:

They have a good, Indian restaurant attached. Good location close to Tenterden a short car ride away.

Cons:

Booked through Booking.com. The room we were given was NOT what we had reserved on the site. It was small and had none of the services that were promised. Didn't realise this at first until I checked the booking. Once we complained we were moved to a much better room. So check the details when you arrive.
