Glen Hill, in Walmer, Kent is a grand period family home with views to the rear overlooking one of the Queen Mother's favoured retreats, Walmer Castle and the sea beyond. Sleeping up to 19 people, it offers the perfect holiday house for large groups or a couple of families with very flexible accommodation, plenty of living space and a wonderful large garden with a tennis court.

The house is amazing, perfect location right next to a castle. The grounds are wonderful. It's the ideal location for a large group. Also kids will love the "Harry Potter" style of the stairs and nooks and crannies in the house.

Points of attention:
- We found a piece of glass on the bedroom floor, reported it to Keepers Cottages. Fortunately, no injuries.
- A plumber came unannounced to the house to fix the downstairs toilet which was not working when we arrived. After he left, it still did not work.
- A gardener also came unannounced to the house at 8am on Friday morning. He told us he's been doing that every week for many years.
- Some of the email communication was frustrating.

Generally though, the above comments are minor compared to the amazing property!

This is an unusual house with many passages, nooks and crannies and a beautiful garden in a wonderful location. There was plenty to do for all of us from 2 years old to 70 … football, tennis, trampolining, croquet and hide and seek. The beach is only a ten minute walk away and there are lots of places a short drive away. We all enjoyed our stay at Glen Hill.

As a large party of four adults and eight teenagers, we found Glen Hill pretty much ideal. The house itself is sprawling and quirky with multiple staircases and even an organ room; the grounds are vast, with tennis court, trampoline, and plenty of places for teens to squirrel themselves away. Accommodation is generous and actually rather better (in terms of usable beds) than the website suggests.
A couple of caveats. First, it’s not the place to go if you want wow interiors: everything is perfectly serviceable and clean, but a little shabby and dated. Second, the number of bathrooms is quite tight for a houseful, and they’re fairly Spartan, especially in terms of water pressure!
This said, it’s a great location for a dog-friendly family break.
