We rented the whole of Pekes Estate to celebrate my 50th Birthday with Family and Friends. The houses were presented beautifully for our arrival. Everyone commented on the well manicured lawns and gardens and fabulous views. We had 40 people staying and hosted a party for additional guests on the Saturday night. The properties have the foyboils of old properties, windows that don't open, quirky layout and creaky boards, but that all added to the experience. The kitchens have plenty of plates, glasses etc, multiple fridges and freezers and dishwashers.. much utilised with a big group. The p...more
As the title implies, we had stayed at Pekes previously - three years ago. Both visits were weekends to celebrate family members' ninetieth birthdays. The nature of the occasions meant we were a party of about twenty, convening from Kettering, Cambridgeshire, London, Margate, and locally. When the second stay at Pekes was suggested, there was immediate, unanimous enthusiasm and commitment, so very happy and enjoyable was our first visit.

20 of us spent 2 nights at Pekes manor. We had such a lovely weekend, the weather was amazing and the house was perfect. There was plenty of space for all of us to sit together in both the kitchen and lounge area along with plenty of areas to sit and chat in smaller groups. The bedrooms worked well and it was fun to find our way around the house with different staircases leading to various landings! The grounds were beautiful and we had a lovely walk over to the Gun Brewery on the Saturday. There was everything there we needed and it was a truly and relaxing weekend.
Everything about our stay was amazing. Cleanliness, facilities, the communication beforehand and after. Would recommend it for a party, family get together. Will definitely be returning.
We had a wonderful stay in Tudor View and thoroughly enjoyed our time at Pekes Manor. Although Tudor View is an older cottage with plenty of character, it is exceptionally well maintained, spotlessly clean, and very comfortable. The beds were clean and comfortable, the kitchen was fully equipped with everything we needed, and the whole house felt warm and welcoming. The fireplace and traditional interior created a lovely atmosphere that reminded us of staying at a grandparent’s country home. It gave us a very cosy and relaxing feeling throughout our stay. The Pekes estate itself is absol...more
We have been regular visitors to the Oast House at Pekes for over 10 years and this year we had yet another very enjoyable weekend. It is like a second home and just as comfortable as ever. Beautiful gardens and surrounding countryside. It's only a short walk to Farleys House from Pekes - well worth a visit.
