Our location lends much to our appeal. Set amidst the fruit farms and hop fields of the Weald of Kent, between the villages of Marden and Goudhurst, we are an hour from Central London by train (Marden station is only 3 miles away). Gatwick airport is less than an hour away and Eurostar's International Stations at Ashford and Ebbsfleet are even closer.
