This peaceful haven offers beautiful views and the perfect setting for a restorative retreat in the North Downs. Nestled within a small country estate, you can relax in the private garden, savour long soaks in the hot tub and follow hiking trails through the surrounding meadows. Inside, the rooms have been designed to inspire a wonderful sense of well-being. From the Scandinavian design and the woodburning stove to the luxurious freestanding bath and the range of extra services, you’ll find it easy to settle in and make it your own. It’s also family-friendly with a bunk bed room for children and plenty to explore in the surroundings. From here, it’s just a short drive to Canterbury and the coastal towns of Folkestone and Hythe.
