The village of Hamstreet lies 6 miles south of Ashford on the A road between Ashford and Hastings. Until the coming of the railway in 1853, Hamstreet was just a hamlet known as ‘Ham’ based around the village centre which contains many buildings in the traditional Kentish weatherboard style. Today, the village is known for offering a selection of independent shops, cafés, a convenience store, a pub and an Indian restaurant. Surrounding the village are two large areas of public woodland, namely Ham Street Woods and Orlestone Forest, which are both regarded as Sites of Special Scientific Interest. Nearby, the villages of Appledore, Ivychurch and Kingsnorth offers a wealth of history and culture, along with some fascinating attractions.

The owner was gracious and helpful. They even provided covers for the setteeâs so your dog Can sit on the settee with you if this is what you want. We loved our stay and have booked again for next year. There was everything you would need, right down to a bottle of water in every room. Milk, eggs, orange juice and a lovely cake for us on arrival.

The grounds were a bonus lots of walks and a canal nearby. Property is well equipped, the kitchen had everything needed for cooking and entertaining our in laws. The lounge had excellent quality sofas and the beds were very comfortable. Our host was very welcoming. The only thing we would suggest is that the sign is not easy to read from the road but this is a minor detail. Church nearby is open and there are secondhand books to buy with an honesty box for payment we bought six.
