About this property
Maplehurst Barn Stables
This single-storey barn conversion is the perfect base for a romantic break away, with the opportunity to spend an afternoon wine tasting at Hush Heath.. Ground Floor:
Living room: 40" TV, Sky, DVD Player
Kitchen/dining room: Electric Oven, Electric Hob, Microwave, Fridge
Bedroom: Double (4ft 6in) Bed
Shower Room: Cubicle Shower, Heated Towel Rail, Toilet. Oil central heating, electricity, bed linen, towels and Wi-Fi included. Welcome pack. Lawned garden with garden furniture and barbecue. Decked terrace to front and rear. Private parking for 2 cars. No smoking.. In the ‘Garden of England’, where the apple orchards blossom, situated between the Wealden villages of Frittenden and Staplehurst, lies this single-storey barn with level access. It adjoins the owner’s home and is surrounded by glorious Kentish countryside, and is situated in a very quiet location at the end of a long private driveway, overlooking paddocks with horses grazing. Maplehurst Barn Stables makes an excellent base for exploring or simply just sitting on the decking and relaxing. Visit Hush Heath, the state of the art winery, with a beautiful 400-acre estate, where some of England’s most iconic still and sparkling wines, and ciders are produced. Visitors can join a guided vineyard and tasting tour.
Garden lovers should head towards the National Trust owned Sissinghurst Castle and Gardens, which once belonged to the writer Vita Sackville-West and Harold Nicholson and is one of the most famous gardens in England achieving Grade I Status. The gardens at Great Dixter, Pashley Manor and Scotney Castle are also not to be missed. Described as the ‘loveliest castle in the world’, Leeds Castle is nestled near the county town of Maidstone, where you can also enjoy open air concerts in the summer. Tunbridge Wells is half an hour’s drive away and offers Jazz on the Pantiles and many fine dining experience. Beaches can be found at Hastings and Camber Sands and there are very good rail connections to London offering the theatre and additional sightseeing opportunities. Should you bring your passport, board a train at Ashford and have lunch in Paris or Bruges. Shop, pub and restaurant 1½ miles.
