Enjoy a relaxing holiday surrounded by countryside in these barn conversions which have been decorated and fitted to a very good standard. They are situated on the owners' working arable farm, and guests are welcome to use the footpaths crossing the farmland. Take a few steps back in time to the year of 1193 AD when you view the abbey ruins, once bustling with French monks. During the dissolution of the monasteries, Henry VIII had many stones removed from the abbey to build his fortifications at Deal and Walmer. Follow in the monks' footsteps, (today a 20 minute car journey), and take a trip to Canterbury. Dover, 5 minutes by car, for day trips to France, or stop in Dover to visit its castle and the Roman painted house.
