10/10 Exceptional

Stayed two nights and would highly recommend it. The room was perfectly comfortable although the floors are a little creaky - not unexpected in a pretty old building. The welcome was very friendly and the highlight was the food. We ate in the bar both nights and couldn't fault any of it or indeed the breakfasts. Very enjoyable stay.

Definitely worth a visit!

This has to be the friendliest pub in England. We felt we belonged to the community 😃. Fantastic service, absolutely delicious food made from local produce and cooked by a very skilled chef. The place was full of character, even down to creaky floorboards. We loved it.

We arrived at 8.15pm and were worried we were too late to eat, bu we received a very warm welcome from a lovely young lady with long blonde hair, who told us that despite our lateness, we could check in before eating. We decided to eat straight away. The food was delicious. I had ham and leek pie with buttery mash and cabbage and my husband had ham hock, egg and hash brown chips. Our room COX was above the bar. It was comfortable and very well appointed. There was a small complimentary decanter of RUBIS, a chocolate ruby port, which was delightful. There was a pantry down the hall, where you could help yourself to refrigerated milk and bottled water along with extra towels, loo rolls etc. The bed linen and towels were good quality. There was body wash /shampoo and condtioner in the shower and liquid soap by the sink. The only thing that let it down was peeling lino by the shower and a the plug for the basin was detached. Breakfast was very good. A breakfast hamper was provided as my husband had to leave very early on the second day. The pub is in a lively village. It has a bar, restaurant, conservatory and plenty of seating outdoors with rural views. All the staff were customer focused. Nothing was too much trouble for them. Highly recommended.
The welcome amenities!

A Perfect Stay – We Didn’t Want to Leave!

My daughter and I stayed at the inn for one night during our trip exploring Kent — and we honestly didn’t want to leave! From the moment we arrived, we felt completely at home. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, and the warm, cosy interior of the inn made it feel like a true retreat. Our room had everything we needed and more — from biodegradable shower caps and earplugs (thoughtfully provided, although the noise wasn’t an issue as the pub below closed early) to complimentary still and sparkling water, a small carafe of delicious Rubis chocolate wine, and plenty of coffee pods and tea. Milk and extra supplies were easily available from a pantry in the corridor. The shower was divine — excellent water pressure and plenty of hot water. The room was also stocked with books and games, and we ended our evening with a cosy game of Scrabble before sinking into a bed so comfortable we didn’t want to get up. There’s a lovely beer garden at the back, with beautiful wooden benches, pots of ferns, sheltered and open seating, lit up with fairy lights in the evening. We enjoyed a peaceful stroll around the village and, on the morning of our departure, tucked into a five-star cooked breakfast at the inn — included in the price. We then followed a walking route suggested by the inn manager (maps available at the bar and in the room). If we return to the area in the future, we’ll definitely stay at the inn again. It truly made our trip perfect. Milla & Claire

A really enjoyable stay

A very comfortable 3 day stay in this Village Inn with very warm welcome and friendliness throughout - informal but professional. Cleanliness of both room and bathroom excellent with some extras provided in both. Food and menu also excellent. Ideal location to visit Canterbury (Park and Ride close by and very easy) and nearby coast. A lovely stay.

Lovely Pub!

Wonderful break in a special pub. We really enjoyed our stay at the Duke William. The host Adam was a superstar and all the staff made our visit very special. The pub itself is the star, such a wonderful ambience, clearly loved by locals. The food is hearty and everything you want from pub grub. Our room was a little on the small side, so we had to squeeze to get around the bed, and it was on the warm side (but better that than being too cold). But lots of lovely little touches to make us feel welcome from the personalised note, to the scrummy chocolate port. The location of the pub made it a great central point to see the area being around 30 mins from Whitstable, Margate and closer still to Canterbury. Would definitely stay again if in the area, but perhaps not in the same room.
