Sofas in front of the fire, English wines and local ales, ambrosial food and smart rooms, all a short stroll from Sissinghurst Castle

A charming village pub and a great base from which to explore – stylish, welcoming, nicely priced. The Sunday lunch is fabulous with seasonal produce mostly sourced within 20 miles. In summer, you decant onto a big terrace with an outside bar and a wood-fired pizza oven.

There’s a duck pond, a lawned garden, views over open country, even a four-day festival in August (local bands, theatre, face painting, lots of food). Interiors have an easy style: woven willow lampshades, a sofa in front of the fire, a timber-framed dining room for fabulous food cooked with flair from ingredients sourced in Kent and East Sussex. Artisan bread, handmade charcuterie, succulent lamb, amazing asparagus and even a boutique gin.

Sleep in beautiful, uncluttered bedrooms with lovely fabrics, super beds, excellent bathrooms, a sofa if there’s room. Wake to homemade muesli with berry compote, sausage or bacon bap, croissants or a full English.

  • From nearby Staplehurst, you can reach London by train in less than an hour. You’ll also find Frankie’s Farm Shop at Staplehurst Nurseries, selling plants, gifts and groceries and serving delicious lunches.
