Crete Down Guesthouse

No overall comment. (107234361)

Quality furnishings in what i consider to be one of the best guest houses i have ever stayed in. Ideally situated for both the channel tunnel and the Dover ferries and as a bonus it is located in beautiful countryside with panoramic views. The hostess was polite, friendly and helpful (and cooks an excellent breakfast.

Whilst the off road parking was good for cars it was not quite so good for our heavy motorcycle. (Gravel drive) However the hostess did allow us to park on her own block paved drive.

Excellent host, clean tidy rooms, b/fast traditional. (107227310)

Ideal location just off A20, therefore ease of access for Dover, Canterbury etc. Stunning views across Folkstone and to France from front rooms.

We stayed for 4 nights and couldn't have been better served. On arrival we were given tea and biscuits in the beautiful garden and were joined by another guest and the landlady who did everything possible to ensure we gad a happy holiday. (97826899)

Warm welcome on arrival, excellent accommodation, exceptionally clean and well run, comfortable bed and good English breakfast. Good location and helpful landlady. After many breaks using bed & breakfast accommodation, this must rank as No.1.

It is the first time we have stayed in a guesthouse,as opposed to a travelodge or hotel.We found the owner very nice,the room was lovely and clean.It is unusual to share breakfast at a table with other guests,but it was very agreable,and the breakfast itself was very good. (97660378)

The owner is very friendly and homely.The breakfast was very good.

I travel to many hotels and guesthouses on business, and every now and then one really stands out as being superb - and this is it ! Wonderful facilities, everything is new and clean as a pin and fabulous views across Folkestone thrown in. (97685914)

If you like small and friendly with very hospitable hosts this is for you. If you like nostalgia have a drink in the cat and custard pot 5 mins drive away, but we don't recommend the food.The accommodation was home from home and we would stay again.Watch out for Olive, the cutest cat you've ever seen.

The friendly welcome, a lovely room with views right across to the sea, the facilities, the excellent breakfast - 12/10

This guesthouse was perfect for an overnight stay perhaps on route to ferry or Tunnel. Obviously being a guesthouse it was only suitable for sleep and breakfast. Both of which were excellent. Also, room we were in had a 6ft wide bed which was very comfortable. (99164662)

Very good, fitted the bill, only minor prob was getting access to the car in the night as the door was locked and no key obvious. (99518187)

Clean fresh with a lovely night time view

Directions to find accomodation could be modified after Crete Road West and a B+B sign closer to the road would help.We passed the house several times in the hours of darkness before ringing the proprietor. All descriptions before booking were spot on and we were very pleased.We will definitely be using the guest accomodation again. (99290774)

Splendid Views from room. Good Hospitality. Good quailty breakfast cooked to perfection.

I feel i've put most of this in what I liked. Everything was lovely, the location, the room, the food and the hostess herself, there is nothing I would change and I look forward to going back again. My only small criticism is in the directions, we found the road no trouble but the directions then said that the house was half way along the road - we had no idea how long the road was and so ended up going much too far and having to reverse on a single track road in the dark (VERY traumatic) With hindsight I think it should have read Half way along the row (of houses) which would have made much more sense. However once we arrived there were no problems at all. (99721495)

Our accomaodation was spotlessly clean and the owner (sorry I can't remember her name!) was really helpful, early breakfast for our ferry crossing, ringing round to find us an evening meal and very friendly to talk to.

Just go there and see yourself! We went there with my sisters who both have special dietary requirements which is normally a problem - not in this b&b! Thank you so much for a wonderful stay - we will recommend you and hope to back! :) PS: The dinner tip / inn in Etchinghill was fab! I will not complain about English food anymore! ;) PPS: Just stay as you are! :) (3305202852)

This b&b is really first rate - we were 6 persons and had 3 wonderful rooms, 2 of them had an amazing sea view (you can see til France!) and the one we had was at the back overlooking the lovely garden. I never had a better breakfast (tomatoes from the garden soo yummy!) and never met such a friendly host.

We (6 persons!) couldn't fault anything.

There was every part of the stay covered and well run with a very friendly welcome (3304256567)

the family feeling and welcome received from the owner. a well run accomodation would stay there again.

Very friendly welcome. Breakfast available before 7am. Near Euro tunnel. Nice view, even of the French coast! Parking a bit limited, though fine for our stay as only two rooms occupied. Dinner nearby limited; local pub stopped serving at 8pm on Sunday. (3305041457)

Friendly, comfortable, clean;

Noisy plumbing arrangement.

Our rooms were very nice and clean. So were the toilets and bathroom appliances, which worked also perfectly well. The location of the guest house is great. The welcome was quite warm and the staff very kind and helpful. (3305086999)

Almost everything.

The fact that the credit card terminal was out of order and that we had to pay cash.

The whole experience was a total pleasure and the hostess could not have done more to make our stay as comfortable as possible. We would recommend this guest house without reservation - a real gem and a wonderful find! (3305034872)

Everything

Absolutely nothing!

We were greeted upon arrival & made to feel very welcome. The roooms were all spotless, the breakfast was great & we had a fantastic stay. If we visit Folkestone or Canterbury again we will not need look around, we will definetly come back to Cretedown. (3304877206)

We loved our room, we had a fantastic view. We had everything we needed.

Can't think of a single thing that we disliked.

Excellent room with all facilities including a brand new super king bed! Lovely location for walking and a nice view over Folkestone. Off road parking was great for my historic MG and the channel tunnel only 10 mins away. Owner really friendly and helpful and I will stay again on my next trip to the continent.

Nothing

A very warm welcome by the owners. Comfortable rooms with all facilities and a wide range of choice for breakfast. In a quiet rural setting but close to all amenities. (3304690054)
