The Kentish Barn United Kingdom

A quaint farmhouse oozing country chic simplicity, The Kentish Barn offers breath-taking views across the infinite countryside and even a hot-tub in which to enjoy the tranquil rural landscape!
Whether you’re together to celebrate a special occasion or simply to unwind and rejuvenate, this luxurious barn conversion will provide you with the ideal social spaces as well as numerous enough relaxation stations for every need! An oak theme runs through the whole home, in a beautifully complementary style with brown leather chairs, wooden door and window frames and stunning granite worktops. The well-equipped kitchen is a total joy, with tons of surface space and all the latest mod cons. There is a breakfast table in the kitchen as well as an incredible formal dining area to the other end of the home. Alongside this is the jaw-dropping lounge, with sumptuous sofas, a large TV and a fireplace. And finally, if you fancy a lively game of table tennis or table football head to your games room, or, if you’re feeling a little less energetic, you’ll find an Xbox in the snug, just off from the master suite.
There are four incredibly spacious bedrooms, three with double-beds, a TV and a truly luxurious bathroom with facilities including huge walk-in rain-showers, and one twin room with Velux blinds and a vaulted ceiling. Each room beautifully enhances the original beam-work of the barn, with complementary colour palettes and simple décor.
And finally, step outside, onto your beautifully raised terrace, where you can indulge in a little alfresco dining, fire up the BBQ, pop your feet up and get stuck into a good book, or indeed raise a glass under the stars and enjoy one another’s company late into the evenings. With such clear skies out here in the natural landscape of Romney Marsh you can enjoy an unforgettable evening of star-gazing as you soak in your incredible hot tub on the terrace.
