About this space

Rustic luxurious hideaway with swimming pool close to the Kent village of Horsmonden in an area of outstanding natural beauty with amazing views of the Weald of Kent's orchards and hop gardens

The space

The Pool Shed sits on an old farm within private gardens, fields and woods of around 15 acres. It looks due south over the swimming pool across an area of outstanding natural beauty (AONB) with stunning and distant views of the Weald of Kent and fields of orchards and hops. There is hardly another house in view. It is an amazingly quiet and tranquil location with often the only noise being the birds and animals in the surrounding gardens and woods.

The Pool Shed sits overlooking a heated swimming pool (mid-May to Mid-September weather allowing) which guests can enjoy. There is plenty of seating and umbrellas with tables and chairs and loungers to relax and soak up the view. The Pool is for the exclusive use of the guests during their stay.

The Pool shed offers luxury within a rustic and stylishly designed space.

Entering in through the main oak door you enter a small kitchen area where there is a microwave, air fryer, counter top hot plate/hob, fridge freezer, Nespresso machine, kettle, toaster and dishwasher. Through the kitchen you enter a large space with vaulted ceiling, exposed beams and brick work, which accommodates a super king sized double bed made with duvet and Egyptian linen, sofa, table and chairs with smart TV, which allows access to Freeview and to all the usual streaming services subject to subscriptions, with blue-tooth sound bar, Blu-ray player and wood burner. There are plenty of DVD/blu-rays’s provided and books to enjoy. Double glass doors overlook the pool and terrace with stunning views of the Kent countryside. Wi-Fi (circa 200mbps).

Outside, there is extensive terracing around the pool from which to soak in the view south over orchards and hop gardens, and a Webber Kettle BBQ, chimenea and fire pit for those cooler evenings. There are plenty of sun loungers chairs and outdoor sofa's allowing plenty of choice. The pool has easy access with 4 inbuilt steps in one corner of the shallow end.

The surrounding fields and woods of around 15 acres can be enjoyed by guests.

We can accommodate pets, subject to a surcharge, from the months of May through to September only.

Other things to note

Space to accommodate a small child in a travel cot (not provided) if guests are happy to have their child in their room and given the Pool Shed is in close proximity to a pool. The pool is in an enclosed space behind gates.
