A lovely countryside stay. The pub is beautiful, a great mix of an old pub with modern design. Everything feels lovely and clean. Huge beds! I would say though, we stayed on a Sunday and the road out the front on the Monday morning was quite noisy (rush hour, bin men and gas refill right outside the window of our room). I doubt the rooms were full with it being a Sunday, so it would have been good if they put us out the back. If you can, request a room at the back of the building!

Cosy Penshurst hotel.

A fantastic 2 night stay in Penshurst. Hotel is really cosy and tastefully decorated. Open fires in bar area. We ate in the restaurant both breakfast and dinner and both were excellent. Great base for touring the local area which had a lot to offer.

Lovely decor, friendly staff and fantastic food.

My wife and I stayed here recently for an impromptu getaway and we felt like we'd stepped into The Holiday. It was a very cute and quaint village with decor that matched. We could tell a lot of effort had gone into every detail and we'd highly recommend for anybody looking for a relaxing stay.
