We stayed in their garden log cabins as they had en-suite facilities. The cabins were just great for our purposes and very private.

Generally very good. Breakfast could be challenging, lack of room, long queues as a large party of kids there. Front room a bit noisy as near main road; but nothing to be done about that!

8/10 Very good

Basic accommodation and a Warm welcome.
I had a very warm, quick and efficient check in. The room was very clean, with a lovely thick duvet. The hostel has a really lovely atmosphere and the building has many original features and a lot of character, which I like. This is a hostel, so I wouldn't expect the same facilities as a hotel, so no kettle in room etc, however I paid less too. There is no chair in the room, however it was really comfortable to sit and read on the bed. I was able to leave my car in the car park during the day which was really helpful as I was meeting someone in Canterbury that day and parking would have been an additional hassle and expense. The only issue really was the room was cold. This was originally because the windows were open for covid reasons, however the room didn't heat up much during my stay once the windows were closed. Happy with my stay though.

Comfortable stay
The youth hostel is very helpful and polite. The female dorm room I stayed in was clean, comfortable beds and spacious. The kitchen is bit small but there plenty of space to make your food. If you don't want to be stuck in your room, the lounge is good for relaxing in the evening.
