STAY

Alongside our charming Summerhouse and Holly Hut, we’ve opened the doors to our former family home, now offering six beautifully styled bedrooms in the main house ready for you to book and enjoy.

In collaboration with SGS Designs, The Beacon has transformed its historic family home into six uniquely elegant bedrooms, each blending Arts & Crafts character with contemporary comfort. Just below the house, our seventh retreat — The Summer House — perches on the edge of Happy Valley, offering breathtaking views across the Kent countryside.

Surrounded by Victorian spring fed lakes and landscaped gardens, every room is inspired by the natural beauty of the setting. Thoughtfully designed with vintage charm, modern touches, and a deep sense of place, each space offers a truly memorable stay in one of Kent’s most picturesque locations.
