Quaint and charming Folkstone
Great location and value. Good hot breakfast and/or cereal included. Hosts extremely accommodating and friendly. 1 minute from Tesco supermarket that offers meal deal sandwich, chips and drink value lunch! Charming small town with picturesque English gardens.
Great pier with pop up shops, beachside carousel and lighthouse.

Weekend away
It was clean and tidy with tea,coffee falilacies in the room. Our room was with ensite shower worked well. Sarah the owner was very friendly and helpful. Gave us places to see and food places to eat out or bring back and would lay a table in the breakfast room. A fridge to put drinks in outside our room if needed.

Rob Roy Stay
A really good short stay over in the local area helped by the location of the Rob Roy. Central but just far enough away from the very centre of the town. Good rooms and amenities with very approachable hosts

The en suite room was comfortable, with a small private patio area. Landlady extremely helpful (even lent me a security lock for my motorcycle). Good cooked breakfast.

A lovely few days at The Rob Roy. Easy 15 min drives to Dover Castle, the RH&D Railway and Port Lympe. We stayed in the family room snd were very comfortable. Sarah made us feel very welcome and helped with cutlery/plates for us to dine in in the evenings although we had a lovely dinner at the Harbour inn one night which we walked to. Breakfasts were a lovely bonus snd were a great start to the day. Sarah is a lovely host and the highlight of our stay!

Great b&b,everything was ok,thanks!
our stay in the b & b was very short but we are satisfied, the owners were very nice, I left an expensive thing in the room, the owner immediately said that she found it when we left ... besides, very clean rooms and bathroom, thank you very much we would like to return there someday.Thanks again Kami and Tomas
