"Beautiful barn conversion in a lovely rural situation."
We were looking for something a bit special for a few days stay and the Goose Shed certainly exceeded our expectations from the moment we arrived. Lovely decor, comfortable furnishings including beds, super bathrooms, well equipped kitchen- the property certainly had the wow factor! Very peaceful and quiet but ideally situated for exploring East Kent. Nearby Goodnestone Gardens was an unexpected gem - Kate is a lovely accommodating host who gave us great recommendations and helped us with directions before we arrived. Thank you for a lovely stay on your peaceful farm. Wonderful autumn break.

Welcome pack was much appreciated.

"We would highly recommend staying at The Goose Shed."
It’s in a gorgeous rural setting(very quiet). It is situated close to Canterbury and in a good position to reach other nearby places easily. Beautifully presented and spotlessly clean. Very well equipped. The secure garden was brilliant for our dog, it’s all on one level. Would recommend The Red Lion in Bridge for evening meals. Kate (the owner) lives nearby and was extremely helpful with any questions.

"A fantastic property."
Very clean and tidy. It was very comfortable with everthing you need. Lots of outside space and sunbeds. Very peaceful location with some great local walks. We had a great holiday here and would highly recommend this cottage which easily fit our family of 4 and a dog.

"A fantastic stay."
. extremely helpful host, who went above and beyond to help us. The Goose Shed is a great, rural stay; with peace, quiet and tranquility, a car is a must if you want to get further afield. Everything is quality and comfortable ; thank you so much for providing a fan in each room as they were much needed. This place makes a perfect base if you want to explore more of what Kent has to offer. Highly recommend!

"If we could give 11 out of 10 for this property then we would."
Goose Barn is a superior holiday accommodation that is just like a home from home. By far the best holiday accommodation we have stayed in over the years we have been holidaying in the UK. It is well equipped, comfy beds and tastefully furnished in a tranquil location. A brilliant place to stay to explore Kent. Kate’s hospitality is excellent. Thank you for the welcome pack too. We will be returning.
Thank you so much for a great review. I really appreciate it.Kate Property Owner

"The property was perfect, especially for my dad who has mobility issues."
We had everything we needed for our stay. The beds were comfy, showers amazing and kitchen living space was lovely. The welcome pack was very nice. We were lucky enough to have really good weather and really enjoyed using the outside space and garden, which was perfect for our little Westie. We had a fantastic time and we are looking forward to returning next year.
Thank you Sarah for taking the time to leave me a great review again. Lovely to see you all again & see you next year. Kate. Property Owner

"A very lovely place to stay, we all enjoyed it a huge amount, had to drag my wife away."
Will certainly be back. If any critic, would love to have an EV charging point to pay for, limited things in Kent it seems.
Thanks Darren for leaving me a great review. Kate Property Owner

"Fabulous stay."
Roomy but also cosy. Nice and peaceful location and an excellent base for visiting the south east. Very well stocked from extra toilet rolls, dishwasher tablets and kitchens scales. Would be good for more information to be provided on this as could have packed a lot less! My only minor feedback is there was only a small freezer box and the fridge wouldn’t hold a lot of bigger bottles etc if the accommodation had 6 adults and in the warmer months could be a struggle. Communication from the owner was excellent along with a lovely welcome gift. Would def stay here again and recommend.
Thanks so much for nice review. Have added extra fridge in utility. Many thanks. Kate Property Owner

"Lovely property with quality furnishings and all the facilities you need for an enjoyable stay."
Situated centrally for visiting Kent’s coastal towns and the lovely historic Canterbury. Property is set in a very rural and quiet location where the only sound you can hear are the birds. Highly recommended.
Thank you for taking the time to give such lovely feedback. Kate Property Owner

"The accommodation was outstanding."
It wasn’t the easiest to find down narrow country lanes but walking in through the door there was a real wow factor. The barn had everything we needed and was much larger than we expected. It was quality throughout and we can’t recommend it highly enough. It initially seemed a little remote but turned out to be well situated to get to all the main towns, beaches and attractions of this part of Kent. My wife and I will definitely be returning…and don’t let the idea of being part of a working farm put you off. It was as peaceful as you could possibly want and we were unaware of any farm activity throughout the stay. 5* all the way
Thank you so much for taking the time to write such a lovely review. Really glad you enjoyed The Goose Shed. Kate Property Owner

"The Goose Shed is a delightful holiday cottage."
It has everything you need and more. The beds and furniture are very comfortable and there is plenty of room for 6 people and a dog. The artwork on the walls is beautiful. The wonderful countryside of Kent is right at your doorstep from the cottage. Canterbury is a lovely city. Thank you very much Kate for all the lovely touches!

"Lovely spacious accommodation with comfy beds in a rural area and a good base to explore all of East Kent as everything within 30 min drive."
Thoughtful touches from owner, who was quick to respond to a query. Finding the property difficult for the first time as no details under ' Getting here' on Sykes page, which would be a quick fix and using postcode on satnav covers too wide an area. What3words might be more useful, particularly as property is approached on a single lane road in a rural area with no turning points.
Thank you so much for your review & feed back. I have added what3words to ' Getting there' on Sykes page & will add directions. You are totally right detailed approaches need to be listed to help guests find location more easily. Will sort this asap. Kate Property Owner

"The Goose Shed is a well thought out property, with beautiful furnishings, good design with home comforts put in place."
All three double bedrooms are fitted out with comfort in mind with nice bedding, quality beds and a hairdryer in each of the rooms. With a well equipped kitchen and a fab dining table, great for dining, but also good for board games. The sofas were comfortable and the tv a decent size. The en suite shower and over the bath shower were good and great outdoor seating. There isn’t anything negative to say about The Goose Shed only positive things. Would definitely recommend.
I really appreciate guests leaving me a review, especially such a lovely one. Thank you so much. Kate Property Owner

"We had a really fantastic weekend at the Goose Shed, it was a real home from home, with everything you need for a comfy, cosy stay."
The whole of the accommodation was beautifully decorated and immaculately presented The kitchen and living areas were perfect for relaxing in, after a busy day out. The showers in the bathrooms were wonderful and the towels soft and luxurious, the bedrooms were spacious and beds very comfy. The outside space was lovely and perfect for our dog and for us. Kate the hostess was warm and friendly and provided a lovely welcome pack for us, which we all enjoyed. We are really looking forward to our return visit next year, and highly recommend a stay at this property.

The place was excellent and well equipped, comfortable and well situated. We appreciated the welcome bottle of wine and milk- makes such a difference especially when local shops are not close by.

About the location
WINGHAM
Sandwich 6 miles; Canterbury 7 miles; Broadstairs 14 miles; Herne bay 15 miles.
Wingham is a lovely Kent village situated between the majestic cathedral city of Canterbury and the cinque port town of Sandwich. The rural location of Wingham has long made it popular to visitors and the village has a combination of thatched cottages, medieval hall houses and handsome Georgian buildings, which gives it a truly unique style that won't fail to impress. Along the tree lined high street visitors will be spoilt for choice either when looking for a light lunch or a hearty evening meal. The Dog Inn dates back to the 13th century and was once a coaching inn, here guests can dine on traditional meals prepared from locally sourced ingredients, whilst The Anchor boasts real ales and regular live music events, including Jazz afternoons. Less than half a mile outside the village is Wingham Wildlife Park, which is open seven days a week. In addition to its ponds, aviaries and animal enclosures, it includes a pet village, as well as a picnic area, adventure play area and even an animal hospital. Another attraction not to be missed is the nearby Goodnestone Park Gardens. The 14 acre gardens, regularly enjoyed by Jane Austen, are generally considered to be among the finest in the South East. Why not take a stroll and while there enjoy the woodland walk, overlooking the village cricket ground, with an arboretum, gravel garden and a marvellous array of ancient trees? For a family day out with a difference make your way to Howletts Wild Animal Park, less than four miles away, where over 50 different species of animals can be seen. Here you can walk with lemurs and see tigers and gorillas, then while the adults enjoy a well earned rest and a refreshing drink, children can run off their energy in the play park. Wingham is a perfect holiday choice at any time of year.
