Owners Remarks:
“Dutch Cottage has been a wonderful home to us and an amazing place to welcome our friends and family. When we first walked through the door of this pretty home, we felt like we had stepped into a holiday cottage, where we were not overlooked and could be relaxed. We love being tucked away at the end of a no-through road with a lovely private garden, which has sunshine all day long. We’ve enjoyed coffee in the morning on one terrace watching the sun come up.... And a barbeque in the evening on the garden patio, watching the sun go down. The cottage enjoys the best of both worlds, seclusion but also being just a ten minute walk from West Malling, it is so easy to access for a morning coffee, shopping, or an evening meal without taking the car.
This has been a wonderful cottage that we just love to come “home” to. We will be incredibly sad to leave this beautiful cottage, garden and lovely residents, but needs must.”
