This charming Kent cottage lies on the edge of Tenterden, surrounded by tranquil countryside and known as the 'Jewel of the Weald'. Nearby is Scotney Castle, one of the most romantic gardens in England. The 14th-century moated ruined castle is surrounded by stunning gardens. Early in the year snowdrops appear, followed by banks of primroses, daffodils and drifts of bluebells. Scotney looks beautiful all year round, with magnificent rhododendrons, azaleas and rambling roses in the summer. During the autumn the garden and wider estate at Scotney come alive with glorious colours.
From its pretty weatherboarded exterior to its heavily beamed interior featuring a large inglenook fireplace and wood burning stove, this 18th century cottage is filled with character and charm. Enjoying its own garden, it adjoins the owner's home on the fringes of Tenterden, a delightful country town with interesting shops, restaurants, vineyard and station for the Kent and Sussex Steam Railway's journeys to Bodiam Castle. Glorious gardens at Sissinghurst and Scotney Castle. Within easy reach are Hastings, Rye, RSPB Dungerness, Leeds Castle and Camber Sands. Fishing, golf and riding nearby. Pub and shop 1 mile.
