Criol Oast - Four Bedroom House, Sleeps 8

This historic oast house sits in the charming village of Shadoxhurst within walking distance of a village pub serving great food, and two spas. It is perfect for large families or friends in search of a unique cottage to call home whilst discovering the beauty of the Kent countryside together. Spend days exploring the traditional market towns of Tenterden (8 miles) and Rye (13.5 miles), where you’ll find a whole host of independent shops and cafes, or MacArthur Glen Designer Outlet (5 miles) for some discount designer shopping. For some vitamin sea, head to the rolling dunes of Camber Sands (19 miles), or Dymchurch (14 miles) to stroll along the sand before you hop onto the Romney, Hythe and Dymchurch Railway to enjoy a picturesque steam journey to Dungeness. Or if you have the children with you, they’ll love seeing the animals at the rural Rare Breeds Centre (5 miles) and Port Lympe Safari Park (10 miles).
Park in your private parking spot (there’s room for four cars) and head to this landmark oast house. Step into the hallway and to your left you’ll find an inviting open-plan lounge/dining area with characterful exposed beams and a striking wood burner. Take a little time to enjoy the cosy ambience in the lounge area before you head to the traditional kitchen to cook up a storm for your loved ones. Gather everyone together for a formal dinner at the large dining table or enjoy a casual meal in the breakfast room while you take in the pretty garden views through the large French doors. After dinner, make your way to the snug in the roundel to watch a movie, or head back to the lounge area to enjoy a glass of wine by the wood burner. Head up to the first floor and you’ll find four beautifully styled bedrooms – a master king-size bedroom with an en-suite shower room, a king-size, a double and a twin. Completing the layout, you’ll find a smart family bathroom with a shower over the bath.
Open up the French doors from the breakfast room and step out onto the pretty patio area with views of the neighbouring farmland. Fire up the charcoal BBQ in the fully enclosed garden and indulge in a fun al fresco dinner with your loved ones. For cycle enthusiasts, the national cycle route 18 is virtually on the doorstep.
