The Chequers is a 14th-century coaching inn located in the picturesque Kent village of Smarden. Bedrooms feature exposed wooden beams and the candlelit restaurant serves fine British cuisine.

The cosy bar has a real fireplace and a menu that changes with the seasons. Roast dinners are served on Sundays, and there is an outside eating area, which leads to the large garden and duck pond.

The room was lovely. We stayed in the Guinevere room (luxury double room with brass bathtub) which is spacious and has a comfortable bed and large walk in shower. The food is wonderful - all the evening meals we had were delicious. Breakfast was good with plenty of choice. Great location for visiting National Trust properties (lots in the area), as well as Leeds Castle. The village of Smarden is also pretty and worth walking round.

    For a place to stay, our room was well designed and comfortable with a comfortable bed and many plugs and storage. The plugs, some with USB, made charging mobiles etc very easy. There was good hanging for clothing and drawers for clothes. The en-suite had a good shower. The food was excellent both for dinner and breakfast and the staff were all friendly. Although we were not local customers in the bar were friendly. There was very good WiFi which is always a benefit. We would stay there again!

    lovely old Inn with a stunning garden at the back. Olde Worlde en-suite room with lots of charming character. We enjoyed a Sunday roast and breakfast was exactly what we wanted. we had plenty of tea and coffee with fresh fruit, cereals and of course a full English breakfast. Smarden is quiet and very pretty - we enjoyed our stay very much. Parking is at the rear.
