North Downs Barn

Arrived and was greeted with a warm welcome the property is amazing, showed to a outstanding room, had a great nights sleep in an amazing bed, breakfast was perfect! nothing was too much trouble. I would highly recommend 100%. Will definitely use again when down on business going forward.

What a fabulous find. Warm welcome and a beautiful place. Anything you needed was provided or could be. The room was massive. Shower great. Towels lovely and soft. Even a mini fridge on the landing to keep your wine chilled!! Beautifully decorated and very comfortable. Breakfast had great choices and was delicious. Definitely recommend.

North Downs Barn is a great property with spacious, comfortable rooms. Alison and Paul are very welcoming, helpful hosts. Breakfasts were excellent. We are so glad we found North Downs Barn and unhesitatingly recommend it to anyone looking for a place to stay in this part of Kent. It is conveniently located in a peaceful area but not far from Rochester and the motorway network.

Beautiful stay in first class accommodation with a faultless breakfast! I travel a Lot with work and this is in my top five, lovely host with immediate rooms which look like brand new! As mentioned quality breakfast, if I’m in the area again I will definitely re visit 😊👍🏼

Not sure where to start really 😊 For me, this was a fabulous nights stay. The large barn-style property is situated in a very quiet rural location, alongside the route of the North Downs Way trail. The entrance, gravel drive and front aspect are very welcoming. I arrived slightly later than planned and was warmly greeted by Paul, one of the proprietors. After some great conversation regarding walking and travel around the North East, he lead me up the fabulous central staircase to my room. A beautiful lobby & upper floor relaxing area. The room was fabulous, with a wonderful king size bed and furnishings of real quality. The little finishes and extras (inc. fresh milk for teas, coffees etc), were really great. Not only a shower room, but also a large whirl pool (…I think that is what they call them. Lol), type bath. From dressing gowns, to nicely bottle water, really made my stay feel special. The bed and the nights sleep was simply 10/10. Nothing more to add. I actually woke to the sound of the birds and thought it was great to hear no passing traffic. Having previously completed my breakfast request form, I went down to the dining room (at the time of my choosing). There was a fabulous selection available, but u could not miss the full English. I was served by Alison (..the boss I think lol) and we had a lovely chat regarding walking and especially regarding my forthcoming trip to Snowdonia. I personally am recovering from a stroke and both Alison and Paul, were extremely welcoming and helpful. Thank you both for helping me with my bag to my car. Overall….a most excellent nights stay! Only wish it had been a 2 night stay. I will be back lol. Highly recommend. A great and fair price 👍

A most beautiful barn conversion, furnished and decorated with exquisite taste, not too far from the motorway, but in such a tranquil setting The hosts were so helpful and friendly and gave us such a warm welcome. We had difficulty with paying for the Dartford Crossing online and Paul very kindly sorted everything out for us. The downside of North Downs Barn is the distance from the Scottish border!!! One wee suggestion, given the distance from the kitchen to the dining room, heated breakfast plates would allow the delicious breakfast to remain warm.
