The farmhouse is a stunning house with beautiful views of the castle and gardens. It could not be more conveniently located if you have come to see the castle and gardens and go hiking through the beautiful countryside. The hosts were very kind and friendly and the breakfast was also nice with a wide selection (although we were surprised that our neighbouring table was offered alternative milk options and sour dough bread) which we did not know were available to my lactose intolerant son. I suppose we were supposed to ask for it? Nevertheless, that aside, the complimentary afternoon cream tea with cake accompaniment was also delightful and very delish! The rooms were very pleasant although as we were on the very top floor, just as something to note, we did not have the pleasure of the high ceilings as in the rest of the house and you do have to go up a flight of stairs if you are disabled. However we did have lovely views and bright rooms. Also the bathroom sink is a bit tiny so you need to throw down the bath mat if you don't want to get the whole floor wet. All in all it was a very nice stay . The best part is the beautiful building and location.
Featuring garden views, Self Contained Garden Studio with stunning views provides accommodation with a garden and a patio, around 20 km from Leeds Castle.
Food was amazing. Lovely bathroom products and lots of personal touches made the stay memorable. Good location for visiting many sights. Main drawback was no overhead ceiling shower due to ceiling height, so shower had to be handheld, which made hair washing tricky.

Nice country pubs and easy to find shops.
Nice country pubs and easy to find shops. Waitrose and Tesco are very helpful and off the main street. Great scenery nearby. Nice people. We drove to Hawkhurst and enjoyed some beautiful spring weather. Feels very rural but with benefits of local services. Would certainly return.
Really great place to stay in Hawkhurst. Good pub, good restaurant, comfortable room and really friendly staff. Came here for our wedding anniversary. Our room was a good size, with a lovely bath in the bedroom. The chocolate brownies in our room to go with tea were a lovely touch. Food in the restaurant was good too which meant you didn't have to go out. Located close to Rye, Hastings, lots of good walks and National Trust properties. Highly recommended.
The breakfast was excellent. Close location for visiting several National Trust properties. Easy to find. Grocery and petrol stations near by on the same street if you need them. We had a Family Room which is all that was available. It was spacious and comfortable. The shower was in the bathtub. The bed and pillows were comfortable. Lots of parking onsite, in front of hotel and pub.
Perfect location for a peaceful retreat and yet only a few minutes to the nearby Hawkhurst where there is a Tesco and Waitrose. Charming, welcoming hosts made me feel completely at home. The barn is well equipped for self-catering and is spotless and well maintained. Ideally placed for visits to Great Dixter and Sissinghurst. I loved my stay here and would definitely return!
The staff was amazingly helpful and friendly. The breakfast was out of this world delicious and nutritious! So we're the evening meals and beer!! The service was outstanding in every aspect! The bed was super comfortable and the room was very clean, complete with coffee, tea and treats. I would come back to Hawkhurst just to stay at The Queens Inn.
It is an old Inn located in a beautiful region. We made small excursions to Bodium Castle, Great Dixter House and Gardens, and smaller villages and their churches nearby. The Pub in the hotel was warm and inviting. Harry Cox and his staff went above and beyond for us. We enjoyed generous meals, fun entertainment, and cozy atmosphere!
The hotel is comfortable and obviously historic. Our evening meal was good, as well as the breakfast. We appreciated that our room ( Room 2 ) was very old and that added to our enjoyment. However, the mattress was not very comfortable and might require replacement? The staff were very pleasant.
This is one of the best places we have ever stayed. The property and its facilities are exceptional. The garden and the setting are beautiful - we could have sat on the terrace looking out over the Kentish Weald all day. Harriet and Oliver are wonderful hosts. An exceptional B&B.
The staff were fantastic but a special mention needs to be said for Zoe who was absolutely amazing and went above and beyond - really is a huge credit to the hotel! Really didn't want to leave as it was such a great stay. Lovely breakfast and the brownies didn't last long
The hotel was originally an inn used by smugglers but had been renovated to modern standards. It had olde worle charm and some sloping floors. The Harveys beer was great. Breakfast was also great - we could order what we wanted.
The large main bedroom had lovely wooden shutters, which kept out the sunshine first thing in the morning, the nice courtyard garden was a sun trap and the cottage was only a few minutes drive to Hawkhurst.
