Michelle
Yes, it’s located off a busy road and was difficult to get into the parking if you didn’t approach from the same side of the road due to the split carriage way.
Avelina
Very clean and spacious!
Bansi
So close to bedgebury forest, lovely and clean cabins, would visit again
Helen
We enjoyed our stay, the chalet was clean and well arranged. All items and toiletries needed were available. Good parking space and quiet environment.
MISS S
We booked to stay for 2 nights to attend a wedding. The chalet was clean and had everything we needed. We needed to arrive quite late and this was accomodated really well. The only downside was that the chalet was really warm, but we enjoyed our stay and would definitely book again if we revisit the area.
Miss R
Excellent log cabin accomodation, but no Wifi
Very comfortable log cabin, excellent supplies of both toiletries and breakfast goods. perfectly clean, good hot shower, set for right temperature, hurrah!
Only problem was lack of WiFi. Although password given, there was no wifi to log in to.

Fantastic getaway
What a beautiful place to lay out heads! Lorraine was an absolute sweetheart and made us feel so welcome we didn't want to leave! Clean, well equipped and full of character, we will most definitely be visiting again

Marcus
Good place to stay for travelers en route
We (family of four, two teenagers age 14 and 17) spent one night at the motel on our way from Weymouth to Folkestone. We arrived late so we called the premises and found an arrangement so that we could access our room after the usual latest time of 8 PM. The lapartment was clean and the beds and the sleeping couch were prepared for the night. All the food (e.g. milk and juice) for the complimentary breakfast had already been provided. The premises are quiet and we had a good night's sleep. Only two minor issues: the WIFI was too slow to do just about anything with it and we would have appreciated a more comfortable lamp in the living room to watch TV.
Rosemary
Position away from v busy road would be good but charge took that into consideration I feel. Adequate.

The property was in an area good for visiting relatives

Lovely clean motel.
Clean motel. Uninterrupted stay. Lovely stay with the family and some nice local places like Bewl water and the pinetum all less than a 10 minute drive away. Mattresses were a bit uncomfortable but not terrible.
David
In a Log Cabin. It was very comfortable. The breakfast, although simple, was very good.

Alison
A clean and comfortable motel
This accommodation is clean and comfortable but in reality it is a motel not a hotel. It’s quiet in spite of being close to the busy A21. My only minor issues are that there is no housekeeping if you’re staying more than one night and the continental breakfast is a do it yourself in the kitchenette cereal and toast , already in the room which is a bit disappointing when you’re on holiday.
Michael
Had a great stay. Highly recommended.
Very clean. More like a self catering apartment. Felt very welcome and I'd highly recommend. Everyone had a good sleep and e joyed the included cereal and toast. In fact, better than a hotel as you can take your own time. 11 check out meant no rush so great with kids.
Barbara
Very good stay only problem is the beds, which need replacing especially the pillows and duvets which were awful
michelle
Great easy checkin friendly helpful staff
Kev
Spacious accommodation, but could be better
Good size room, comfortable accommodation. Bed not very soft. Cereals, milk and white bread provided. Would have liked wholemeal bread. Useful to have kitchenette but no microwave. Needs a coffee machine.
Jocelyn
Value for money
Good value for money and very helpful and friendly service.
Stephen
Great overnight stop
Only stayed for one night when working in Flimwell, very pleasant, lots of space, easy parking, simple but ample continental breakfast left in room. Highlight was morning run before work on the forest trails immediately opposite...great for walking, running or mountain bikes. Hopefully be back
LInda
Yes - peace and quiet!
Very friendly welcome by reception, although we didn't see anyone else during our three night stay. Due to Covid-19 restrictions they weren't entering the chalet rooms on a daily basis although we could ask for anything extra when necessary. Facilities in the chalets were clean and organised. Basic breakfast supplies had been left in the fridge. Only microwave available and toaster available for cooking. Nice set of bathroom toiletries available. Although the motel is next to a busy road we were not aware of the traffic while indoors. Also, although quite a few cars coming and going into the main car park area the sound was not intrusive in the chalet. Main disadvantage is if you are approaching and having to turn right into the motel entrance then it is a really horrible turning!
simon
Fantastic
Stayed at the forest motel during lockdown. As a key worker from yorkshire they was limited availibilty but found this and was perfect. Clean tidy had everything i needed. Only thing i could of complained about was the Wifi All the pubs around was closed but there was a tesco and a great indian takeaway not to far away. If i come back ill deffo stay here again

Stay for one night to see christmas lights. clean tidy had a good nights sleep, quite basic but comfortable. recommend
Verified traveler
We enjoyed our short stay. The chalet was very clean and modern. It was lovely to have a pint of milk waiting for us so that we could have some refreshments as soon as we arrived. The breakfast was nice with a chice of cereal and lots of choice of spreads too. It was great to be able to park right outside our chalet too.
We would have preferred larger bath towels but the ones in the chalet were adequate. The bathroom does require some finishing off around the edges. One of the coffee talbes has a broken leg but we didn't need to use it.

Good but can improve
The cottage was kept ready and there was an additional bed however there's no additional bed linen or duvet making the bed un-usable.
Otherwise the property is kept clean and has all that is needed for a weekend stay

Every thing is clean and tidy, facilities in the rooms are great. Have been here more than once. The Lady who runs the Hotel is marvelous. She remembered me fron last year and saved me appartment 2 because it has a wet room and I am disabled. Who could ask for more.

A21 or A22 not my best routes, this Motel is tops
Clean, comfortable was very near to family we visited.
Mark
Beautiful chalets great two day stay
Stayed for two nights with my two sons and the whole experience was great. Check in and out was easy and the milk cerial and bread was a real bonus. Rooms were clean and well stocked can't fault anything. The pub across the road is great for food and good beers and it's an easy walk.
Verified traveler
I liked the fact that there was a little kitchenette and sitting room with a sofa and a single bed and an upstairs bedroom. It was much bigger than I thought it would be. The bed was very comfortable, there was lots of coffee and tea and real milk in the fridge.

very pleased would highly recommend

A Great Stop-Over.
Absolutely perfect for our needs. We were visiting family in the area. A simple but pleasant welcome. Admittedly we didn’t get there until 9.40pm but we rang ahead to let them know. That was no problem for them.
A very clean and tidy chalet, with an upstairs. Again, simple but more than adequate. Continental breakfast within the chalet suited us as we wanted a quick getaway. This is the second time we have stayed here and we would all Recommend it. Not 5* accommodation but definitely a great stop-over.

Good place to stay with own kitchen area
A good place to stay if you want to sort food out for yourself and eat when you want rather than relying on somewhere with a restaurant (although there is a pub nearby which does reasonable food too). The lady who runs the place is helpful and friendly. My only criticism is that the cleaning seems to be a bit superficial which I think lets it down slightly since its so good in other respects.
Laura
Nice stay
Stayed one night as going to a wedding locally. We arranged an early check in and they were very accommodating and had the room ready for us. Very clean and tidy. Would recommend
Tony
We were traveling through the area so it served our purpose
Despina
Had a lovely 4 night stay in this motel to explore the surrounding areas. We had a family chalet with a double bed upstairs and a single bed downstairs plus a sofa bed. Also had a kitchen and dining area and bathroom downstairs. it was very comfortable and not noisy at all given that the A21 runs alongside it. I would definitely stay here again. the only reason I didn't give it full marks was that there was only a hand-held shower over the bath which wasn't powerful at all and we all like our showers. Some of the other chalets have proper showers in.
Simon
Did like our stay in Forest Edge Motel.People were friendly.Beautiful Forest just on the other side of the road.Hut was all in all in good condition, except minor repairs which should be done.We would book it again.
Stefan
Nice accomodation for a short stay. Friendly and accommodating owner.
Variety in continental breakfast was rather poor, but quantity was sufficient.
The double bed was too small for 2 adults.
We stayed in the disabled-room, but there was not enough room do move around in a wheelchair. After moving some furniture around, we made it work.
