The Old Barn at Bethersden

About

Forget the Inns next to motorways. Instead enjoy the countryside and stay near Tenterden at the Bethersden Old Barn bed and breakfast - a Grade 2 listed converted 18th century listed Kentish Barn. There are plenty of exposed beams and original features, the beds are "really comfortable" (so our guests say) and the breakfasts “simply delicious”. We are founder members of the “Kent Breakfast” scheme guaranteeing the majority of our produce is local.The Old Barn Bed and Breakfast is situated near Tenterden, just on the edge of Bethersden village, right in the heart of the "Darling buds of May country". It is a great central base for visiting all the local sights and is convenient for both Eurostar at Ashford, Eurotunnel at Folkestone and the sea crossings at Dover. It's only 37 minutes into central London from Ashford International station, or our local station, Pluckley is only 3 miles. Incidentally, Pluckley is the most haunted village in the UK. Sissinghurst's famous gardens and Scotney and Bodiam Castles (all National Trust) are a short drive, the coast and historic Canterbury a little further. Tenterden (5 miles) offers good shopping and the Kent and Sussex Steam Railway. We have several country pubs close by, The Bull at the top of the hill (approx 350 yards) and The George pub in the village centre (approx 800 yards). Bethersden has a Post Office/Shop, local butcher and a hairdresser. Major supermarkets, restaurants and shops are in Ashford and Tenterden.We have a 1 luxury twin with private facilities and 1 double (actually a 4 roomed luxury suite) available.
