About this property
300 year old converted stable- a country experience for the family. Enjoy cycling, walking, horse riding in a nearby school - plus the beach and miniature steam railway at Hythe only a fifteen minute drive away.
Located in the beautiful, unspoilt and tranquil countryside of the North Downs - an area of outstanding natural beauty. This pretty three hundred year old converted stable is situated in the grounds of the Owners' ancient farmhouse, on a working horse stud. Round every corner are breathtaking views across the North Downs and Lyminge Forest where you can enjoy cycling, walking, bird watching at Wye Nature reserve and horse riding in a nearby school. The coast and shingle beaches of the traditional seaside town of Hythe are only a fifteen minute drive away, offering boats for hire on the Royal Military Canal and a fun and delightful outing on the miniature steam railway to Dungeness. Cavalry Farm Cottage is in a great spot for a real country holiday, if you are interested in horses the very amenable and hospitable Owner will happily introduce you to some of the four legged residents and you may get the opportunity to watch them exercise and perform some dressage. With easy access to the M20 for excellent shopping at the Designer Outlet in Ashford, or head just 11 miles east and you will find the beautiful and historic medieval city of Canterbury. If you prefer to stay local, then just a few minutes away is the excellent Stelling Minnis Village Stores for local produce and the village Post Office. There are fabulous fine dining pubs to choose from nearby, The Tiger Inn at Stowting or The Five Bells at East Brabourne both under 2 miles, or head to Wye on the river Stour just a 15 minute drive, for village shops and 3 more great pubs - the difficulty will be in which one to choose!

Ms Koster
We had a good time in a sweet, cute house. The cottage is in the countryside, it is very quiet. In the cottage is thought of everything, many facilities in the kitchen. The owner is very friendly and hospitable!

Cavalry Farm Cottage was comfortable for our needs, and very well equipped and came with everything we could possibly have needed. We found that, being there for a special wedding anniversary celebration weekend, we had forgotten the sparkle-saver for our breakfast fizz ~ and sure enough, in a drawer, there was precisely what we needed! When we arrived, we found in the fridge a pint of milk and a pack of butter; outside the fridge a half-dozen eggs; plus a loaf of white bread in the bread bin. The owner was very welcoming and we thoroughly enjoyed our three days in the Kentish Downs. We will return ...
