Pretty Maid House B&B — Hotel in Tonbridge and Malling

Pretty Maid was very good value; book direct with the owners to get the best price. The house was slightly difficult to find as it was getting dark, but there was good secure parking and a warm welcome from the owners. It is on a busy road and we were lucky to have the room at the rear (no.3) but can imagine it's noisy at the front, especially if, like us, you like to sleep with the window open. The room was clean, warm and had a large comfortable bed. It had a small fridge (fresh milk was supplied) and good quality tea, coffee, hot chocolate and biscuits by the kettle. There was just 1 upright chair which meant sitting on the bed to relax. The TV worked well and free wi-fi was available. The en-suite bathroom had a good supply of towels and was warm with a roomy shower. We did find the shower slippery when wet and commented that a rubber bath mat would be a useful addition, or a handle to grab when getting in and out. The breakfast was excellent and served promptly in a dedicated dining room. You are asked for your breakfast choices and time the night before. There is a rear garden available, with lots of birdlife, but we didn't make use of this in January. There are 2 places to eat an evening meal within close walking distance, so all in all this B & B met our...

A delightful house & welcoming hosts - Andy & Sue. Their home is absolutely lovely, bright, fresh & very nicely decorated. Our rooms (we booked their self catering suite which has 3 separate rooms) were spacious, comfortable, clean & well equipped. The bathroom is huge with a large corner bath, separate double shower cubicle & double basins/bathroom cabinets - there was still enough room to host a small party 😁|On my way out one day, I did peek into the vacant double room opposite and thought that, size wise, I would've also been very happy in there (had the suite not been available). |We didn't partake in the available cooked breakfast but the menu looked fabulous - many choices that should cater for everyone.|Another bonus was that there are 2 excellent independent restaurants within walking distance - The Vineyard right next door & The Ming, a short stroll away. No real need for us to drive further afield |Overall, an extremely pleasant & comfortable few days - thank...

I was welcomed by host Andy and shown to my comfortable and very clean bedroom. I was given a fresh bottle of milk to go with the choice of tea, coffee and biscuits in the room. There was a mini fridge. The room had a ceiling fan for warmer weather and adjustable central heating for cooler weather. The en suite bathroom was spotless and well equipped. It had a larger than average shower. At every turn Andy was helpful with local information and advice. Breakfast, from an especially wide menu was ordered in advance and a time agreed. By this time it was clear that a great deal of thought and experience had been used to make this bed and breakfast a step up above the norm. Following a peaceful night I enjoyed a superb full English breakfast and all that went with it. I was left with the impression that nothing, within reason, was too much trouble, and I can honestly say “ what more would one want from this brilliant and very reasonably priced bed and...
