About this property

Visit England Gold Award Winning Rural 3 Bedroom Barn Conversion in Kent

Swallows Return is a 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom self catering barn conversion within rural Kent.

Perfectly situated for trips to the beach, bicycle rides along the Military Canal, as well as visits to nearby Hythe, Dymchurch and Canterbury. While the high speed train service ensures quick and easy access to London.

The owners' breathtaking garden is part of the National Garden Scheme and is open twice a year. You may well come across the free range hens pecking about the garden (be sure to thank them for your eggs!) There is a tennis court at the property for your enjoyment (please net that the tennis court use is with the owners permission only).

The nearest shop is 3 miles away, the coast is just 9 miles and the local public house is 0.5 miles away.

The barn is arranged over two floors, the front door opens out onto an open plan kitchen, dining and living space with a shower room off to one side. The double french doors open out onto a decked area.

There are 3 bedrooms upstairs within a king-size bed, fitted wardrobe and shelving, mirror and dressing table in the master bedroom with an en-suite shower room containing a power shower and complimentary Kentish Romney soap.

Bedroom 2 has twin beds with chest of drawers fitted wardrobe and shelving and the final bedroom has a double bed, fitted wardrobe and internal mirror.

There is a screened Mediterranean garden by the front door with a majestic olive tree, outdoor furniture and charcoal barbecue. There is also a decked area to the rear.

Please note that there is a fenced pond at this property and children should be supervised at all times.

We require a £100 deposit upon arrival for any large damages - this will be refunded upon departure.

Long Awaited Holiday
We had booked originally for 2010 but postponed the booking due to Covid restrictions. The wait was well worth it. This was the first holiday we had taken in 18 months and we were looking forward to it with great anticipation. We were not disappointed. The property is in an ideal location and was the cleanest we have ever stayed in. The property is well equipped and had everything that we could have wanted. The crowning glory for us was the beautiful garden. It is certainly a labour of love. Penny and Bill were very friendly and helpful. We would hope to return at some point although having told friends and family about it we amy have difficulty in booking.
