We stayed two nights as a family while our daughter was getting married at the Knowle Country House. Orchard B&B was on their recommended places to stay, and what a lovely find. The grandchildren loved playing in the beautiful garden and didn’t want to leave. Push was a great host, and nothing was too much trouble. The rooms were clean and comfortable, each with an en-suite shower, and the breakfast choice was amazing. We couldn’t fault anything. Thank you, Push.

Pushpinder was such a great host and nothing was too much trouble. My sister and I were in the area for a wedding at the nearby Castle Cooling Barn, and we had a fantastic two-night stay. The room was a good size, the beds were comfortable, and the shower was great. Downstairs, the communal breakfast area was airy and lovely, and it was really well stocked. The continental breakfast was delicious with lots of choice. If we’re in the area again, we’ll definitely return to Orchard Cottage.

Our host went out of her way to help us get ready for a wedding at Cooling Castle. She let us check in early, made us a drink when we arrived and was very kind and helpful to our friends who stayed too. We were overwhelmed by her kindness. The rooms were cozy, clean and comfortable, and she made us feel at home. Breakfast was superb. Thank you for such a warm welcome, we hope to see you again soon.

Push was a lovely, accommodating and helpful host, and Orchard Cottage felt like a home from home. The continental breakfast was delicious, with plenty of croissants, muffins, fruit and cereal. The kitchen had everything we needed, along with plenty of tea and coffee and milk in the fridge. We had the family room for three adults, which was immaculate, very large and extremely comfortable. The huge double bed felt like sleeping on a cloud, and the single was a good size. Both were the most comfortable beds I’ve ever slept in. The bathroom shower was powerful and stayed at a perfect temperature. The location was ideal for our wedding at Cooling Castle, just a short drive away, and for Rochester town centre, which is lovely to potter around. Push welcomed us as soon as we arrived and showed us the room and kitchen facilities. I’ll definitely stay again and recommend Orchard Cottage to anyone visiting the area. Thank you, Push and family, for an amazing stay. xx

We were grateful that the management team responded quickly and let us check in early. We were attending a wedding at Cooling Castle that started at 1pm, and the earlier arrival meant we could get ready at the Cottage instead of changing at home and driving over. The hotel is brilliantly situated, with large rooms and fantastic views. The hospitality was kind and the service exemplary. We’d certainly recommend staying here if you’re in the area. Thanks again.
