The Orchards is situated in one of the most idyllic counties in England. The beautiful Kent Downs is crisscrossed by many footpaths, bridleways and country lanes which give excellent access to an exquisite landscape of woodland and open country with breath-taking views. For people who love to walk, take in the fresh air and explore, The Orchards is your ideal location.
Faversham is steeped in heritage; the Parish Church spire dominates the town’s skyline and is visible for some distance. Kent’s oldest market is held in the heart of Faversham’s town centre, mentioned in the Doomsday book, and is also home to Shepherd Neame Brewery, the oldest in Britain. It is a beautiful village to explore. On the doorstep is Mount Ephraim Gardens, ten acres of gardens, set in the heart of an 800-acre estate with magnificent views over the Swale and Thames Estuaries.
Chilham is also incredibly close, lying high above the valley of the River Stour in the picturesque Downs, an ancient spot with a wonderful 16th Century Church and the imposing Chilham Castle.
And if you want to explore the beach, Whitstable is like no other town by the sea and is just 7 miles away. A mix of traditional charm, maritime history and a vibrant arts culture complements the modern town.
Home to Kent’s famous Farmers Markets where most food is organic and all stalls are local, visitors can enjoy seasonal celebrations including the Oyster Festival every July or cosy up in one of the many pubs and restaurants and enjoy fresh sea delicacies.
