Mount Ephraim house is a beautiful Victorian Grade II listed building with a large six bedroom wing that is now open to guests. Surrounded by formal terraced gardens, guests are free to explore all 10 acres comprising of a rose garden, a Japanese rock garden, water garden and lake and many more features.
The views from each room of the house are stunning, and whilst the gardens are open at certain times to the public there is a real sense of peace and tranquility in this lovely part of Kent.
The Garden Wing is not just for garden lovers either, as there are miles of lovely walks from your doorstep, and pets are welcome to come along too, with the two local pubs welcoming four legged friends.
The location is also ideal, as Mount Ephraim sits within easy driving distance of the charming market town of Faversham, the vibrant seaside fishing town of Whitstable and the historic medieval City of Canterbury so you will be spoilt for choice.
Within the Wing you will find a large sitting room with woodburner, a separate snug which is ideal for relaxing in with a book, and a large games room with full size snooker table for fun evenings in. A large open plan kitchen / dining room is fantastic for socialising and relaxing over meals.
Upstairs are six bedrooms all with lovely views over the estate and countryside beyond.
Outside is a pretty terrace with stunning views over the gardens which are exclusively yours to explore outside of the public open times.
