Property code: OC-R33958

Tucked away on a family-run working farm in the Kent countryside, this beautifully finished glamping pod gives two people space to switch off without feeling cut off, with Marden village just 1 mile away. Walking routes lead straight from the farm, while the private deck is ready for quiet evenings beneath the stars, a drink in hand and nothing left on the agenda.

Inside, timber-clad walls create a warm, homely feel, while soft green and white accents echo the surrounding fields and bring a little of the outdoors into the space. Everything is contained within one carefully planned studio space, including a comfortable sofa for post-walk cups of tea and a farmhouse-inspired kitchenette for leisurely continental breakfasts or relaxed suppers. Pick up a takeaway in the village and bring it back to the decking, where dinner comes with twittering birdsong and a sky full of stars. After rinsing off in the modern shower room, climb into the king-size bed, positioned so you can watch the Smart TV or look straight out towards the surrounding countryside.

There is no need to drive when you fancy exploring locally, as walking routes begin at the doorstep and lead towards Marden, where you can round off the evening at the village pub. The station also provides direct rail connections for a day in London. For shops, places to eat and leisure facilities, Staplehurst and Maidstone are both within 9 miles, while Scotney Castle, Leeds Castle and Bodiam Castle are all less than 16 miles away. Alternatively, spend the afternoon on the greens at Lamberhurst Golf Club (9.5 miles).

Fantastic, relaxing break away from it all. Hosts were very friendly and helpful, really nice genuine people. It was lovely eating outside on the decking, playing cards and watching the breathtaking sunsets. We would 100% come back for another stay.

Absolutely beautiful. The owners are so lovely, welcoming and so helpful. Would definitely stay again. The pod is so cozy and just what me and my partner needed for a nice chill, peaceful weekend.
