Set within the wildflower meadows and hop gardens of McCann’s Brewery, this thoughtfully designed cabin stay in Kent offers a distinctive escape for two, where countryside calm and Kent's brewing heritage come together in one quietly memorable setting.
Inside, the studio space is compact but beautifully considered, with a king-size bed, a smart shower room, and a comfortable living area centred around a wood-burning stove for slower evenings in. French doors open onto the deck, where your private hot tub looks out across the meadow and hop fields – a view best enjoyed after dinner and before the stars come out.
While there’s no full kitchen here, Ernest is designed to make that feel like part of the appeal. McCann’s Hop House and Kitchen is just up the hill, where you can enjoy long lunches, relaxed dinners, wood-fired pizzas, and a well-poured pint without needing to get back in the car. For everything else, the cabin's fridge, microwave, coffee machine, kettle, and toaster cover the essentials for laid-back mornings and easy snacks between plans.
And for anyone curious about what's growing just outside the window, the brewery's on-site hop and tasting tours offer the chance to follow the journey from field to glass – starting, quite literally, on your doorstep. For a romantic hot tub break in Kent with a little more character than the usual countryside stay, Ernest gets it exactly right.
