The Clarence is a unique hideaway that prides itself on offering small luxuries whilst being immersed in nature. Nestled in wilderness, the hut sits comfortable on the brow a hill with a beautiful valley view.
Located in the heart of the North Downs AONB, we are in arguably the remotest part of Kent with no light pollution or noise. We have a footpath running through the heart of the wild meadow that leads into a beautiful valley taking you to the village of Doddington (30 mins) where there is a terrific pub. Or a longer walk (1.5 hours) in the opposite direction to the village of Stalisfield where The Plough pub always serves the most delicious food.
Many of our guests enjoy day trips to Faversham and Whistable where they can collect some fresh fish for the BBQ, you will also find an award winning butcher in Doddington.
Dreamy night skies from ‘his’ and ‘her’ outdoor baths, cosy fires, BBQs.
Feedback highlights:
“We loved hearing the owl sending us to sleep”
“Having a morning bath watching the morning mist over the valley was very special”

Our hut is a cosy escape. It’s larger than most huts and we try to give a hotel room experience the best we can. Whilst the kitchen has everything you could need please do not expect a huge space for big scale cooking.
The hut has lots of dvds to choose from, some games and books.
We have tried to make it as homely as possible, so please treat it as a home from home .
Guests will arrive at the entrance to the family home and you are welcome to park anywhere in front of the house. The house is red brick at the front and coming from the road you will have seen a flint/ castle looking wall , this is us :)
Please bear in mind we are very remote so using "What Three Words" is essential when finding the location which will be sent to you on booking.
In the winter and when arriving in the dark, please bring a torch (we used to supply these but people kept taking them by accident). The hut is in a field which gets muddy. Wellies will be needed in the winter months.
Other things to note
Please note this is an introductory rate whilst landscaping around the main house/ driveway is completed. The hut itself is secluded from the house and you will have total privacy and the landscaping will not impact your space.
