Private parking for 4 cars. No smoking. Please note: There is an unfenced deep pond in the grounds. There is a low beam on the first floor. . This delightful detached barn conversion is on a working farm, nestled in the village of Smarden, surrounded by beautiful countryside in Kent. Romden Barn is a large three-bedroom property, perfect for large families and groups to enjoy a relaxing holiday in the countryside. This property is full of character and charm with wooden floors, large spacious rooms, and exposed beams prominent throughout, with a low beam on the first floor. The large living/dining room is perfect for entertaining and has French door access to the garden. The kitchen is well equipped and has a range of appliances and facilities including a cloakroom with a downstairs toilet. Romden Barn is adjacent to the owner’s home and has been lovingly decorated and furnished to a very good standard. A fantastic feature of this property is the large, enclosed lawned garden, complete with a sitting-out area, garden furniture, and a BBQ for the summer months. The option to explore over an acre of land is also available with access to a large unfenced pond where fishing for carp and rainbow trout is available by arrangement with the owner. Smarden was once a village thriving on the wool industry, and is now a sleepy backwater of old England, so classically Kentish that it is sometimes in film sets. In the heart of the village is a cluster of half-timbered houses with Kent peg-tiled roofs. For day trips, Sissinghurst Castle Gardens are well worth a visit, as are the vineyards at Biddenden. Leeds Castle is easily accessible and it closely resembles a fairytale palace, rather than a fortress. The fine aviary and maze are also sure to keep children interested and amused. Golf can be found locally at Chart Hills. One of England’s world heritage cities, Canterbury has much to offer, with many shops, restaurants, and theatres. A former church, now called The Canterbury Tales, has guided tours that lead through galleries and recount Chaucer’s tales. There is easy access to Ashford, from where the Eurotunnel can be taken over to Paris or Brussels. Beach 20 miles. Shop 3 miles, pub 2 miles, and restaurant 10 miles. Free WiFi There are steps to the property. There is open water in the property grounds. There are low ceilings, doors and/or beams within the property.

Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
If you have submitted a review for a holiday rental property, we may also ask that you provide us with proof of your stay to ensure that your review is attached to the correct rental property.
Holiday rental reviews collected via the VRBO website (formerly Homeaway) and syndicated to the Tripadvisor website are not currently subject to Tripadvisor’s standard moderation processes.

A true countryside retreat
A gem ! Tranquil location, beautiful old kent barn, wildlife, hot tub, lovely owners - what more could you ask for ? I left feeling so relaxed after countryside walks, feeding the fish on the lovely pond and early evening hot tubs watching the barn owl swoop by.
