This rural retreat in the village of West Farleigh is surrounded by the beautiful Kent countryside. Sleeping four guests and one waggy-tailed chum, it''s the ideal base for both couples and small families who enjoy getting out and about in nature. There are some fabulous walks to explore directly from your front door, along quiet country lanes or following the banks of the River Medway. In the evenings, share family BBQs in the enclosed garden.
The former farm building has been cleverly converted into a chic holiday home, effortlessly blending contemporary style with rustic original features. The main living space is an open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner with characterful exposed beams and brickwork. Prepare home-cooked feasts in the sleek kitchen area and gather for memorable mealtimes around the gorgeous glass dining table. After dinner, watch a film on the Smart TV or read a book as Fido dozes at your feet. The two inviting bedrooms feature statement wallpapers and striking original features. One of the bedrooms has an en-suite shower room, and there is also a contemporary family bathroom. Outside, the enclosed garden has a patio and BBQ for al fresco dining and a lawn area where the hound can stretch their legs.
