  A Perfect Stay at Hopkins Homestead – Truly Five Stars!

  Our stay at Hopkins Homestead was absolutely incredible and exceeded every expectation we had. From the moment we arrived, it was clear that a lot of thought and care had gone into making this accommodation special. The property itself was spacious, immaculately clean, and beautifully maintained—offering the perfect balance of comfort and style. The welcome pack was a delightful touch and set the tone for our stay. We were greeted with freshly baked scones, a loaf of fresh bread, creamy butter, homemade jams, and even a bottle of Prosecco (or a similar lovely red wine—it was such a thoughtful treat!). These little extras made us feel immediately at home and incredibly pampered. Sheila, the host, was simply amazing. She was warm, welcoming, and always happy to help. Knowing she was right next door and ready to assist if we needed anything gave us such peace of mind. Her hospitality really added to the experience, and it’s clear she genuinely cares about her guests. The location was another highlight. Hopkins Homestead is conveniently close to Dover, which has so much to offer. The city centre is charming and filled with great shopping options, lovely restaurants, and a variety of things to do. Dover Beach is just a short drive away, perfect for a relaxing stroll by the sea. The surrounding area also boasts plenty of walking trails, amusement parks for family fun, and scenic spots to explore. We left feeling completely refreshed and so impressed with the level of care and attention to detail that Hopkins Homestead provides. If you’re looking for a peaceful retreat with easy access to everything Dover has to offer, this is the place to be. We couldn’t recommend it more highly—this is truly a five-star experience!

  Overall we had a lovely stay at Castle Cottage.

  The place was tidy and clean, and the owner very helpful. There has obviously been a lot of thought gone into the design of the cottage as a holiday home, and our dog was also made to feel very welcome with all the little extras. On a personal note, I found the property quite cold and the bathroom very cold at night. The heating was managed by the owner and was restricted in both time and temperature. Again, personally I didn’t find the beds comfortable and slept on top of the duvet to help with comfort. Also, the sofas look lovely, but are quite hard after a while. The kitchen was missing a few things, like measuring jug, casserole type dish for the oven, microwavable plates. The knives were very cheap and quite dangerous to use so didn’t bother with much cooking. Even with these small personal points, we had a lovely stay and enjoyed the quiet location and quaint village of Saltwood. The font and back gardens were enclosed and great for the dog. Parking was never an issue even though you couldn’t park outside, there was always space in the car park. Hilary was attentive and quick to communicate throughout, and I have no doubt would have resolved any issues we may have had.

  We had a lovely week at Paddock View.

  The nice weather was a welcome bonus! Lesley and Steve were very friendly, and helpful hosts. The welcome basket was a lovely touch. The bedroom on the upper floor was very spacious and comfortable, with an en-suite. Good quality bed linen and towels. The downstairs area is open-plan, and spacious enough. However, we found the settee uncomfortable for anything more than 10 minutes The rental property is situated at the rear of the owner's home, accessed through the gardens. The photos in the listing include several images of the owner's property as well as the rental accommodation. Parking was a bit of an issue; there wasn't a dedicated space per se, and we had to shuffle spaces with the hosts' vehicles to gain access or exit. The use of the sun room / conservatory, like the gardens, were subject to the hosts not using them. Luckily, this was never an issue for us. The washing machine and laundry facilities are in the owner's house subject to a small charge for use, and consequently, to their being home!

  The holiday let was clean, cosy and spacious but the outside appearance is disappointing.

  The exterior is quite tatty which does not give a good impression on arrival. The outside areas and driveway needed tidying.The big doors on the conservatory do not close properly, kitchen doors need realigning, tin opener did not work. No bedside lamp on one side of the double bed in the main bedroom. The owner had provided a lovely welcome pack and the courtesy items and toiletries were much appreciated as some owners do not even provide salt and pepper! Although we didn’t use them, it was nice to see the picnic items and beach chairs available. There were no instructions for use of the heating controls or TV … unless we missed them. There was a Google device and a speaker in the bedroom but we did not know how to connect. The location is good and it was lovely being so close to the sea for dog walks. The local kiosk is great for any essentials needed. Sovereign Marina is a short drive away with ASDA and more retail outlets nearby.

  When we walked into the property, we were surprised at how empty and sparse it looked.

  The considerably large conservatory lacked any comfortable chairs for the three of us and the living area had no table lamps or rugs to enhance the 'cosy' feel that was advertised. The kitchen light was so dim that we could hardly see to cook in the evenings and there was no wall fitting for the bathroom shower. The beading on the wall of the ensuite was falling off and needed repairing and there was no toilet roll holder in either ensuite or bathroom. On the plus side, we appreciated the complimentary bottle of wine, the throws and cushions and the condiments that had been left in the kitchen cupboard. The central heating was efficient and the beds were moderately comfortable but we would have preferred that the bedding had been ironed and not left creased after having been washed. The cost of our two night stay was far more expensive than the accomodation was worth which is why we would not readily recommend it.
