We received a great welcome, arriving early in the morning after a long haul flight and driving through the spring snow, as Amanda helped us settle in quickly. The location suited our trip as far as Dover, and the breakfast got got us off to a great start. The view out our window was superb, making Thurnham Keep the ideal... More

Thurnham Keep is one of the very best B&B's we have ever stayed at...what a magnificent place! The extremely hospitable hostess, Amanda, has thought of everything, whether it be the fine linens, top grade toiletries, substantial breakfast....in fact, my wife and I remarked that if we were ever to run a B&B, this is exactly how we would do it....

We stayed at Thurnham Keep for 2 days in April 2012. My sister and brother-in-law recommended the B & B after visiting in 2011 and I am so pleased they did. We stayed for 2 nights to celebrate my husbands 40th. He loves places with character, history, large rooms and glorious views so TK ticked all these boxes. I could... More
