Description

The house, with its Jacobean-style frontage, looks far older than it actually is but is typical of Edwardian eccentricity and grandeur.

Only the finest materials were used in the construction - Bath stone, York stone and knapped flint-work provide the framework whilst marble and oak parquet floors, fine plaster mouldings and panelled walls adorn the interior. It’s believed that the flints were gathered from the crumbling ruins of the Castle and that is how the house acquired its name.

We only use three rooms for guests, each room being light and airy and retaining all the fine features you would expect to find in an Edwardian country house with breathtaking views over the gardens and countryside beyond. Two of the en-suite bathrooms still have huge Edwardian porcelain baths in the centre of the room complete with servant buzzers on the adjoining wall.

Local Attractions

The Local Attractions include:
Leeds Castle - 'the loveliest castle in the world' (hot air ballooning, golf, both pop and classical concerts are just some of the extra attractions here.
The North Downs Way - just behind the house. The views are amazing, not to be missed and our two resident black Labradors will always take you for a walk!
Kent County Showground - various events are held here throughout the year, the major antique fairs and gardening shows have become very popular.
The White Horse Woods - enjoy walks and the remains of Thurnham Castle.
Cobham Manor Riding Stables - internationally renowned riding school.
Numerous National Trust Properties are to be found in Kent.
