Description

A wonderful Oast House conversion in glorious surroundings and grounds which are a gardeners delight, within sight of the ancient parish church, yet only 1.5 miles from impressive Leeds Castle, 3 minutes from the Pilgrims Way and located on the edge of a charming village with good pubs, railway station for trains to London and numerous walks along the famous North Downs Way and Greensand Walks. Nestling in the grounds of an imposing Queen Anne House with origins dating from the 1300s, this well planned Oast House conversion, although the exterior roundel has been removed, offers a taste of history with the original, preserved beams displaying the clear dates of hop-picking during 19th Century. This is a prime location for touring the castles, gardens and historic houses within the glorious heart of Kent. Only a 10 minute drive from Maidstone, the county town of Kent with shops and Leisure Centres and 30 minutes from the Eurotunnel terminal in Ashford. Many local golf courses including Chart Hills at Biddenden - designed by Nick Faldo, Ticehurst - designed by Ian Woosnan and of course Sandwich - home to the 2003 British Open Championship - less than 1 hours drive. Stunning gardens and ponds (children and pets must be supervised as these are not fenced) are abundant with long established plants, colourful climbing roses, clematis and a sea of bulbs in the spring are a haven for birds of many varieties - with regular visits from a Kingfisher and a heron. Guests can enjoy these beautiful grounds - and have use of the orchard and patio overlooking the pond with garden furniture and barbecue.
