Share an American style break away with your loved ones at this charming property set in the picturesque Kent village of Culverstone. Sleeping eight guests across four bedrooms, it’s the ideal retreat for families and groups of friends planning days of adventure together across the Garden of England. Set off for a morning stroll, with footpaths amongst beautiful ancient woodland in the heart of the North Downs AONB right on the doorstep. Make a beeline for Trosley Country Park (1.5 miles) and enjoy spectacular views over the North Downs and a refreshment in the cafe, or stroll to Meopham Green and watch a game of cricket, visit the windmill, or refuel in the village pub. Grab your clubs and head to West Malling (8 miles) for a round of golf, or explore the town's restaurants, bars and tearooms, or for younger ones, visit the play park and duck pond. Further afield, London can be reached in 20 minutes from Ebbsfleet International Station (9 miles).

Climb the gentle stairs up to the American style deck of this wood-clad, weather-boarded, American inspired cottage and step inside via the stunning, oak porch front door. On entry, be greeted by light and bright accommodation which benefits from an open-plan design. Combining a restful lounge with a chic kitchen and dining area, the elegant living space is perfect for unwinding between your days of adventure. On balmy days, throw open the double french doors and let the fresh country air fill the home. During chillier stays, a statement 360 degrees wood burner sits in the centre of the room and casts a warming glow wherever you need it to be. Head to the lounge space to relax; sink into the soft seating and flick through the 72" Smart TV. When stomachs rumble, find everything needed in the well-appointed kitchen to cook up holiday feasts, which can be enjoyed at the glass dining table or alfresco out on the deck or in the rear garden. The first of four bedrooms sits on the ground floor, offering a king-size room served by a nearby WC, which completes this level. Up on the first floor, take your pick from two splendid double bedrooms, one featuring a double bed and an en-suite shower. The master king-size suite features a custom made four-poster bed, walk-in wardrobe and en-suite shower room. Completing the interior is a stylish, large family bathroom with a double-ended bath with shower over the bath.

Make full use of the generous outdoor space, starting with the picture-postcard American style deck overlooking ancient woodland in complete seclusion. Set to the front of the property, this decked space features Bramblecrest outdoor dining furniture as well as a bar area and 4x3 metre electric awning to keep you cool on hot days. To the rear of the cottage, you’ll also find a garden which is laid to lawn and offers bistro-style breakfast dining furniture. Have a cook-up on the charcoal barbeque and when the evening chills, light up the table top fire-pit to stay chatting with your friends and family well into the night. You’ll benefit from private parking for up to six cars on the driveway, making your arrival and day trips easy.
