No smoking.. Nestling in 26 acres of woodland and pasture, this delightful detached barn is situated in a quiet retreat in rural Kent, and offers complete tranquillity with space to think and be creative. The cottage is well equipped and has a wood burner for which the owners thoughtfully supply a basket of logs during the winter months. A glass of wine can be enjoyed on the decked terrace whilst watching the lambs at play, or trying to spot a deer. Malthouse Barn is 20 minutes from Canterbury, and the Channel Tunnel is 15 minutes away for the Eurostar to Paris. Take the fast train from Ashford and be at St Pancras, London, in just over half an hour.

Enjoy views from the decking down the valley which is occasionally visited by herds of wild deer.

For flower lovers, there are great gardens to visit nearby including the famous gardens at Sissinghurst, Great Dixter, Bateman’s, Scotney Castle and Charleston.

We had a wonderful time here - wish we could have stayed longer! The owners were really welcoming and helpful. The peaceful and beautiful setting was just what we needed after a very full on time at work. The cottage is well equipped but also furnished and decorated in the most delightful way. There is a lot to do locally and some wonderful woodland walks. We hope to revisit next year.

Beautiful cottage in an extremely peaceful location. The decoration and layout of the cottage are lovely, unusual and so thoughtful. The views from the deck and the birds in the tree are wonderful.

Peaceful break away

The property was just as described on the advert and well supplied by the owners. Communication with the owners was brilliant and they were very helpful with any requests that we had. Although the location was abit tough for driving due to the narrow country roads, the locals were very friendly and welcoming. Overall I would recommend staying at this property if anyone is in need of a welcome break. P.S. views were amazing!

The cottage is perfectly placed for visiting coastal areas, Canterbury and clise enough to Dover for a day trip tp France. Coming from a medium sized town we found the narrow roads challenging. Nevertheless we managed to get about each day. The peace and tranquility made the holiday.

Very peaceful location with lovely views exactly as described. Seemed remote when we arrived but once you are used to the very narrow roads, doesn't take long to get anywhere. Furnishings interesting. I loved the pedal aeroplane. Would have loved it as a kid.Good choices of local eateries. Ask the owners for a look at the vintage racing car if possible. We very much enjoyed our stay although it took a while for our dog to realise what sheep were.

Rustic.

Rustic.....but quite romantic is how I would best describe this cottage. If you are looking for something luxurious maybe it's not the place for you, but if you like something slightly quirky, with a bit of character and charm (not to mention lovely views across the valley to woodland beyond) this probably fits the bill!! Run by a lovely couple too.
