Situated on the Greensand Ridge, the house has spectacular, long-distance views over the Kentish Weald. The ground floor has a spacious sitting and dining room, a well equipped kitchen and doors out to the garden where you will find a small patio and a grassed area - perfect for sitting and gazing over the surrounding countryside with morning coffee or evening aperitif. Upstairs, the views are just as stunning from the bedroom, making it the perfect place to relax and re-charge.

The owners have kindly offered to give any guests booking 6+ nights free tickets to visit Leeds Castle! It is also ideally located for visiting the charming villages of Ulcombe, Egerton and Pluckley. The North Kent Coast is easily accessible, with Whitstable (known for it's fresh oysters and crabs), Margate (with miles of sandy beaches and Turner Contemporary) and on the way back is the iconic City of Canterbury. The friendly owners live next door, offering reassurance if you run into any questions during your stay but is equally private if you just want to relax.
