Likes:
We liked that is was tucked away in the countryside. Amazing for looking at the stars without any light pollution. The room was very comfortable and clean and the breakfast was good.
Dislikes:
It was slightly difficult to find the B&B because the some of the road signs were missing/broken off. This did make the final part of the journey an adventure.
Response from Manston Guest House:
Unfortunatly the council says it does not have any money to fix road signs! We have already reported it several times. Satnav on our post code (DT10 1HD) does work well however.
