The yurt bed is more comfortable than a typical home bed, according to guests.

The property is located 17 km from Chatham Train Station and 43 km from Hever Castle.

Tea, coffee, biscuits, and marshmallows for the fire pit are provided.

Guests appreciate the quiet setting and fully embraced the chill atmosphere.

Cons

A local area map is not provided, though Google Maps is available.

The site lacks a pool or spa on the property.

“The setting is a genuine draw, complemented by thoughtfully decorated tents that feel both charming and well-equipped. It's clear they've considered every detail, from providing fire pit essentials to stocking the mini-bar, ensuring guests need for little else. This destination truly understands how to deliver a comfortable and engaging glamping escape.”
