Kent Family Farmhouse · 7 Bedrooms · Hot Tub

A spacious Kent family farmhouse in the heart of the High Weald, sleeping up to 18 guests across 7 bedrooms — ideal for large family gatherings, multi-generational holidays, and celebrations with friends.

The Space

Spread across two floors, the farmhouse offers flexible living for families of all ages. The ground floor features a large open-plan kitchen and dining area seating 16, plus comfortable lounge space for everyone to gather. Upstairs are 7 bedrooms in a mix of doubles, twins, and singles, served by 4 bathrooms and a separate WC with basin. Guests also have private use of the on-site games room and summer house — perfect for entertaining children and teenagers while the adults relax.

Outside, the enclosed garden is yours alone. Soak in the wood-fired 8-person hot tub under the stars (please shower before use; no pets in the hot tub), gather around the fire pit, or fire up the BBQ. The garden is fully enclosed and safe for children and well-behaved dogs, with a trampoline and garden games for younger guests.

A weekend in May

Tim was extremely communicative throughout the booking process and leadup to our stay. We had multiple families with toddlers and babies and he was very helpful in giving us an idea of what was at the house, what we could expect and check in and check out times that helped us around naps for the kids. The house itself is beautiful, and in a great location close to lots of things to do and see. The gardens on the property are beautiful and the kitchen and amenities were first class. Everyone that stayed was comfortable, with lots of great and flexible living space. We would definitely stay again, and will probably try to do so again next Summer!

Knight in shining Armour

Tim came to the rescue! We had been planning my daughters Hen celebrations since last October. Everything going to plan until ......... The accommodation we had originally booked had to be cancelled on the day we were due to depart due to no water in the area! Panic! Until we found Tim's property. He was so calm and responded really quickly to my messages. Organised the booking in 4 hours and sent all information over so quickly. The property is stunning pictures don't do it justice . Kitchen is the best equipped I've stayed in, everything is there (our private chef agreed). Beds were very comfortable and open plan living area totally suitable for large social groups. The bluetooth Sound box was amazing . The gardens are stunning with again so much space to entertain. Hot tub was lovely once we had worked out how to light it (Tim to the rescue again). They say things happen for a reason, my daughter, myself and all the girls had the best weekend .

Absolutely wonderful stay

Tim was a brilliant host. Any queries we had during the booking process and whilst at the house were dealt with promptly and in a warm and friendly way. This extended to receiving a very detailed information pack via email prior to our booking and even some thoughtful videos the day before which explained how to use various appliances, open the bi fold doors and even where to find items of cutlery. This meant when we arrived at the house we had all the info we could possibly need. The house itself is truly wonderful. We were a group of 11 with family across three generations. To say it met every one of our requirements would be an understatement. It is beautifully decorated with the perfect balance between all the mod cons and a warm, comforting homely feel. The seven bedrooms met all our needs and having two downstairs rooms was perfect for the older members of our group who were not able to navigate the stairs. There was ample room indoors but the best bit for us was the outdoor space. We were fortunate to have the most wonderful weather during our stay so made full use of the BBQ, amazing wood fired hot tub, and gorgeous patio for dining al fresco. The extensive lawn area was great for outdoor games and a feeling of space to enjoy this lovely rural setting. We will never forget our Saturday evening at the bottom of the garden around the amazing fire pit, toasting marshmallows and singing round the camp fire with both young and old enjoying this little area of paradise.
