Escape to the countryside to The Folly, a charming cottage, nestled down a peaceful, country lane minutes’ from the quintessential Kentish village green of Meopham. From the country lane, electric gates open onto just over 2 acres of paddocks and gardens, of which you can enjoy views over from the cottage.

With hand-picked and crafted pieces, this arts and crafts style home offers the perfect blend of character and style. Seamlessly extended to create a beautifully finished open plan area, the heart of the home, where both families, friends and couples alike will undoubtedly enjoy being together, whether that’s perched at the large kitchen island while dinner is being prepared, or cosied up on the corner sofa watching a family favourite. Come the warmer months, double doors slide open to outside, allowing inside-outside living, with the patio terraces offering the ideal spot for a G&T whilst watching children happily explore the expansive grounds surrounding you. With five inviting bedrooms with tranquil views over the grounds, The Folly promises restful nights and rejuvenating mornings - with the lawn ideal for morning yoga.

Outside, there is plenty of space for all to explore, with the children’s playground and hand-built wooden playhouse sure to be a favourite spot for children, the paddock ideal for competitive garden games, whilst the patio terraces allow relaxing lunches and drinks alfresco.

Experience a glorious slice of Kentish countryside, amidst miles of unspoilt landscape and picturesque walking routes, all just 30 minutes by train from London yet a world away from city life. Embrace village life, with the cottage moments from the village green of Meopham, less than a five minute drive away, complete with a renowned Gastro Pub, a restaurant and vineyard open for tours and tastings, set moments from the green.
