Stay in a little piece of Kent history when you escape the everyday to Oast Barn Cottage.

A charming 300-year-old retreat for two, this rustic holiday home has been thoughtfully restored to reflect its past, with tasteful touches of bare brick, wooden floorboards and exposed beams throughout. A wood-burning stove keeps you nice and warm while you relax with the board games provided, or cosy up on the sofa with a film. Upstairs, a comfortable, king-size bedroom awaits, with its own spacious bathroom – complete with a large roll-top bath – making it especially well suited to a romantic break for couples.

Attached to the owner's original hop barn, the home boasts a wonderful setting surrounded by the peaceful orchards and rolling countryside that make this part of Kent so appealing. There are quiet lanes, footpaths, and scenic routes close by for avid walkers and cyclists, while days out are easy too, with Faversham, Canterbury, and Whitstable all within reach. Don't miss The Plough at Stalisfield Green for a good local pub meal, or exploring nearby Charing – home to a handful of independent shops and overflowing with village charm.

For those looking for a Kent countryside cottage with plenty to explore nearby, this beautifully restored country cottage with period character, a pretty garden, and easy access to some of Kent’s best-loved towns and countryside seemingly ticks every box.
