We have been in Kent three times the past year and always stay at the Rocking horse. We love its vintage charm and beautiful quaint neighborhood. Bob is extremely thoughtful with all the extras he provides. We will be back.

Bob was a wonderful host and provided us with information about things to do locally. He has a lot of knowledge about the home and its history. He also served a wonderful continental breakfast with fresh fruit. We hope to return!

Charming.
Me and my daughter stayed for the night after seeing the Orchestra play at Blossom.
We were charmed by the house and all its character.
The Host was very helpful and we enjoyed the array of snacks and drinks.
We were also impressed with how comfortable the bed was.
We will be back!

This was our first experience with a B&B. The home was under renovation but everything was very clean and organized. Bob, our host, was nothing short of exceptional. The room was very comfortable. Furnishings were outstanding and kept in line with the 1875 original construction of the property. We would Highly Recommend staying at this property if you have the chance. If given the opportunity we would gladly stay here again.

Lovingly restored with lots of Victorian touches. Excellent breakfast, and snacks to take away. Very good value. The owner was on away, but his sister was friendly and helpful. However, the quality of the rooms varies, and some work to the property is needed. Avoid the Elizabeth room until the ceiling and door are repaired.

Wwhere’s the breakfast?
Beautify house, very nice room. But self service everything. I never saw the innkeeper or any staff. And a B&Bn with no cooked breakfast is not a B&B.

Jul 21, 2024
My first impression was that I went to the wrong address. Nothing like the advertising. Weeds, peeling paint. Inside, ragged frayed towels and filthy blankets. We didn’t stay one night. When I asked to be reimbursed for the second and third night, I was told that was impossible because I had prepaid.

Worth the stay
This place was amazing. 19th century themed, with modern amenities. The inn keeper was wonderful and kind.
