Our English country garden is surrounded by trees and flowers, bundles of blackberries, raspberries, English Victoria Plums and famous Kent Cob Nuts at the right time of year. We have a pool table and a table tennis table, guests are welcome to play. Access through a side gate means you are free to come to go without accessing the main house.
