we had a super time at Culver Croft and found the country side around beautiful. We even saw the deer, one outside our bedroom window, grazing away to his hearts content. I would definitely recommend a visit.

Waking up to seeing the local wildlife in the field after a comfy nights sleep is something that made our holiday. Walking locally to the local castle, the village pub and tearooms and being welcomed by all scores this holiday lodge high. Plenty of national trust properties within 20-30 minutes drive away and the wonderful scenic countryside of Kent topped off the perfect break. We would highly recommend this for a couples retreat.
