Holiday Cottages in Kent, The Garden of England

Kent is generally referred to as the Garden of England given the abundance of plants and fruit to flourish within the region. The county of Kent is also renowned for its lavish orchards, vineyards and hop farms. The produce that is the subject of such wonderful surroundings must be sampled by anyone who visits the region as is interested in the history and industry of its growth.  A few of the old Oast Houses famous for keeping hops have been transformed into living quarters, so if you’re looking for holiday cottages in Kent, then you must consider such a fantastic  and historic location.  Oast houses are plentiful in Kent, and boast iconic conical roofs and they were initially built for one purpose which was to dry hops for brewing beer and ales.


Holiday cottages in Kent are popular given the history and landscape of the region. Imagine walking from your holiday cottage onto views of the North Kent Downs or into the gardens of somewhere like Knole House, famous for its Deer and wooded landscape.  You might also be interested in taking a look around the brewery of Britain’s oldest brewer, Shepherd Neame which is located within Faversham. These factors are attractions to consider when booking holiday cottages in Kent as you want to be in the vicinity of the charms of Kent that you feel would suit you and your holiday plans.  


The allure of holiday cottages is that they really do offer a haven away from home. You can come and go as you please and are able to fully relax and be totally comfortable knowing you don’t have to adhere to the procedures of a hotel setting. The freedom to cook for you and family or friends is also a great charm, given that places like Kent offer fine food produce, seen at markets like the one at the Hop Farm. You could sample local veil, Kent ciders which are made from the apples from the famous Kent orchards and other great delicacies native to the region. Holidays cottages in Kent are a great way for you to dive straight into another culture or indeed experience some extra traditionally English qualities.


Visiting holiday cottages in Kent would be great within any English summer or indeed winter, for that traditionally English setting.  Kent is full of landscape and architecture, like Chartwell, the former home of Winston Churchill and places like Hever Castle which boasts connections to Henry VIII. Wonderfully historical and educational, these locations are perfect for any family or group of friends looking for something more from their holiday cottage.
