The Gatekeeper's House

Holiday Rental Description

In the heart of the Alkham Valley, this original gatehouse is a rural retreat for couples and families. The cottage is set within acres of grounds, nearby the manor house – with shared access to the tennis court. The quaint and traditional interior won't be to everyone's taste, but the roll-top bathtub overlooking the pristine gardens guarantees a relaxing stay. You aren’t too far from the bustling Kent coastline. Only a short drive from Folkestone, you can spend the day exploring the Harbour Arm – with plenty of street food on offer, you won't have to worry about cooking.
