Home description
Cherry Cottage is a stylish five star rated barn conversion within the grounds of a traditional Georgian farmhouse. The accommodation is on two floors with wonderful far reaching views of the Swale estuary from the upper level.
A particular feature of the barn is the stunning sunny decking area leading from the main reception room with the beautiful landscaped gardens beyond. These amount to about eight acres in total to create a really romantic hideaway.
The cottage lies in an area of outstanding natural beauty near the historic town of Faversham. An added feature of the gardens is the beautiful indoor heated swimming pool available for use by all holidaymakers with tennis, horse-riding and golf available nearby. There are numerous walks (via long slow lunches in rustic pubs!) in all directions from the farm.
