Great accommodation for a short break.
The Annexe is the ideal property to stay in Kent to be near to the coast and the towns. It is well furnished and equipped with all you need for a short break.

Mersham Village outside Ashford, Kent, UK
The Annexe is the perfect place to stay if you want see the Kent County but live in a quiet village atmosphere at the same time. We used this one bedroom apartment as our base and it was so accessible to all South East England towns. The apartment was a good size, very clean and had everything you could need. Marion and Chris were perfect hosts and having the basic food items in the cupboard and fridge on arrival was very much appreciated. Chris was very generous with his time, showing around and inside the old church. Fascinating piece of history. The local area has two old pubs and both are great but special mention to the Royal Oak for making us feel so welcome. This stay was absolutely delightful and after driving around sightseeing it was so good to relax in the absolute quietness and serenity of the village lifestyle. Thank you Chis and Marion

Very quite and Private Apartment
We had a delightful stay at this attached apartment! It is in a very quiet neighborhood. It was a lot larger then anticipated and very clean. We were provided some basics- bread, milk, butter and marmalade (very tasty!) It is around 10 minute drive to the train station and an easy walk to 2 pubs. Highly recommend!

The perfect base for a Kent stay
Our stay at this property was just perfect right from the beginning. Marion gave excellent directions for finding The Annexe and to have the basics in the fridge was truly appreciated. Everything worked and being all on ground level made access so easy. To be able to do our own cooking was an exciting way to use local produce. The location was a little further outside Ashford than we'd expected but it was a perfect base for traveling around the area and the village has so much history. Thankyou so much for a great stay.

About the host

Hosted by Marion or Chris

Host profile image
We are retired, keen travellers, non smokers. We have enjoyed the hospitality of Homeaway hosts in USA, and want to offer our apartment to visitors either en route to the continent to take advantages of great connections, or those who want to sample Kentish village life, and some of the great attractions locally available.

Why they chose this property

This apartment is totally self contained, with its own garden. Great for leisure or business travellers. Good pub food within easy walking distance, plus only 5 minutes' drive to cinema complex, restaurants, designer outlet etc.

What makes this property unique

We live 'next door' so can offer advice on local places of interest. We can also offer lifts to the international station, channel ports, Eurotunnel, etc.
