Alkham Court Shortlist*
South Alkham, Kent
Good Hotel Guide Review
Home-made cake is the welcome treat from ‘wonderful, engaging’ Wendy and Neil Burrows at their award-winning Alkham valley farmhouse B&B, and their warm thoughtfulness lasts for the entire stay. Country-style bedrooms each have a private entrance, and extras within: flowers, robes and slippers, a coffee machine, biscuits and sherry. Guests also have use of a spa barn with a hot tub and sauna. The hosts ‘have a love for the area’, and can advise on things to do on the Kent Downs and along the coast. Packed lunches and, in the evening, soup with warm, crusty rolls can also be provided. Breakfast wins fans with a spread of local produce, plus home-made preserves, freshly baked muffins and a large choice of hot dishes.

A haven.Wendy and Neil are the wonderful hosts, most helpful and understanding. Best breakfast I had in England for a very long time!

Alkham Court deserves to be in the Good Hotel Guide. We were very well looked after in comfortable and very clean accommodation with an excellent breakfast. Both hosts did everything one would want to make us comfortable.

Wendy and Neil are the warmest hosts you could meet. Our room, the Wisteria Room, was comfortable and well appointed. Every detail is thought about. The breakfast was perfect, with a breathtaking view, whilst sitting next to a cozy fire.
