Kentish Barn Retreat is inviting, bright, and spacious and set in rolling countryside, overlooking the orchards, farms and vineyards of Chilham. It offers unrivalled country views, open plan living, high ceilings, skylights and a raised decked terrace from where you might catch a glimpse of buzzards, sparrow hawks, rabbits and resident white doves.
Watch the sun set in the West through the trees on the horizon, whilst enjoying an evening beverage. You will not be disturbed. The children will be spoilt for choice with their own bunk beds and a fully enclosed garden where they can play freely. A travel cot and highchair are provided as well as a hairdryer. There is more to life than your holiday barn... so get your walking boots on for some wonderful walks around Chilham and the Great Stour River. Take the kids to Badgers Hill Farm and Cidery (just a mile away) to see the animals and ponies, with its café, gift shop and Cidery.

We visited in October when the weather was terrible however , the retreat was warm and cosy with the hot tub an added bonus. The finish of the retreat was excellent with a good quality kitchen. It was a fantastic stay with easy access to a number of costal towns and Canterbury.

Absolutely fantastic cottage!!! Only difficulty was we had our 20 month old and as the barn is on one level (also a bonus) we had to be super quiet when he was sleeping. Other than that we absolutely loved everything! The rooms were spacious and everything was catered for. The owner was so gracious and looked after us very well! Gorgeous views and fantastic hot tub! Our son adored the toys provided and had the best holiday ever!!!
