The barn sleeps two guests in a king room with private ensuite bathroom. With a fully equipped kitchen, comfortable living room, small dining area and beautiful outdoor space, this lovely barn has everything you could need to enjoy a restful stay in this beautiful part of the world. The Space: Oak Barn offers an open plan living area with underfloor heating throughout and wood effect flooring. In the living room there is a Smart TV, a comfortable sofa, and a coffee table, plus an armchair to relax and enjoy a good book. The living area is also home to doors looking onto the patio. The kitchen is fully equipped and has a coffee pod machine, dishwasher, microwave and washer/dryer. There is an electric oven with a four-ring induction hob and a fridge with a small freezer compartment. A pine dining table with two dining chairs provides ample space for dining in. The bedroom has wood effect flooring, a king size bed with a chest of drawers, hooks for hanging garments, along with bedside tables and lamps. The ensuite shower room is fully tiled and has a walk-in shower with hand basin, WC and heated towel rail. There is plenty of space to sit and enjoy the fresh air or dine outside on your personal patio. There is also a shared lawned area to the side of the driveway with trees and shrubs. A tennis court can be found too, directly behind the barns which is for shared use of the barns. Guest Access: Guests have access to the full property. The keys to Oak Barn are accessed via a key safe box, and full details will be provided prior to your stay. Private on-site parking is available for one vehicle. The Neighborhood: Oak Barn provides a great spot to unwind, play a game of tennis, or take walks along the Saxon Shore Way or the Royal Military Canal which are both an easy 1.5 miles walk from the site. With the village shop and local pub just a ten-minute walk, there are good facilities within easy reach. The village sits on the edge of Romney Marsh, which is a great place to explore as it is atmospheric and filled with history. The village of Bonnington has a vibrant community and all the essentials, with The Walnut Tree pub offering food, a village shop and stores with fresh local produce. Just three miles away is The Farriers Arms at Mersham, a very popular village pub with a good menu. Port Lympne Safari Park is only a seven-minute drive away and the traditional seaside town of Hythe with the delightful miniature steam railway, the Royal Military canal and a wonderful wide esplanade along the seafront is just seven miles away. If you prefer a countryside ramble, the Saxon Shore Way is almost on the doorstep, or just head out to one of the many villages on Romney Marsh and do some exploring - the 14 historic village churches are well worth a visit. If you need some retail therapy look no further than Ashford and the Designer Outlet centre, where you can pick up a bargain and enjoy one of the many cafes and restaurants.
