We booked to stay here at the last minute due to a change in family plans for Christmas, which had to be relocated entirely. The house is lovely and very well-equipped. Although we didn't attempt Christmas dinner here (we were invited over to our son-in-law's parents), we cooked several meals and iced a Christmas cake during our stay - only slightly thwarted/surprised by not being able to find a sieve for the icing sugar - but there were two whisks and a large mixing bowl in the cupboards. We made regular use of the coffee machine. The Landing is only a few steps away from Hythe High Street with lots of interesting shops and bars etcetera. Also there's a convenient Waitrose, and other supermarkets a bit further afield.

It was lovely to arrive to a welcome box of chocolates, milk in the fridge, tea and coffee in canisters on the side and a Christmas tree and decorations and the house lovely and warm (too warm actually, I turned down the thermostat - it's a well-insulated house and very cosy!). Also I was delighted to find a 'things to fix things with and spare batteries and lightbulbs' drawer and that cleaning materials and tools weren't all locked away - so if something gets spilled - or something needs a quick fix - everything you need is available to sort it out right away.

Although there's a parking space (and a small garage) at the property, our car was too big for the garage, and a tad too long (30cm) for the parking space (it's a VW Sharan), though the neighbours were fine with it. If you come with two cars, if one is small enough you might be able to stow it in the garage with the other one sitting outside in front of the garage. But otherwise, you'll need to pay to park a second car elsewhere.

The WiFi works brilliantly, I'm betting fibre to the home (excellent download and upload speeds). The TV is big screen and good resolution, but suffers occasionally from video/sound sync issues - I think potentially because the terrestrial signal is not great - which I'm told by local family is a 'feature' of the area. But if you use the built-in players on the TV, you can watch via the Internet instead, which works perfectly.

Refuse and recycling boxes etcetera are in the garage and can easily be wheeled/put out on collection day. There's also food waste recycling bin, which I wish I'd realised earlier (so didn't end up with a smelly kitchen bin), but there wasn't a food waste caddy in the kitchen, and I couldn't find one anywhere else in the house or garage when I looked (sorry!)

So overall - delightful home-from-home comforts, plenty of space to chill, and loads to do and see right on your doorstep - we'd happily book again, maybe in the summer for a proper planned visit versus a surprise last-minute change of Christmas plans.

(P.S. And thank you for providing 3 keys - having more than one key makes it so much easier when staying in a holiday home with family members who might go out and come in again at different times).

We had a great stay at The Landing. It was very comfortable and well equipped. Located right next to town and a short walk to the beach. We’d definitely stay again

Thank you for your review. We are glad you enjoyed your stay at The Landing and look forward to welcoming you back in the future.

Only real disappointment. The beds are so uncomfortable. Shame hardly slept. Great place though.
