The Old Post Office, a delightful Grade II listed vacation retreat, exudes a delightful blend of period elegance and rustic charm coupled with a modern touch.

If your aim is to escape the hustle and bustle of daily life and savour the tranquillity of the countryside, then look no further! Portions of this residence date back to the 16th century, and it formerly served as the village post office until 1990 when it was integrated into the main house.

Recently, it has been lovingly renovated into a beautiful holiday abode, boasting cosy bedrooms and ample space for couples and small families. Step outside to unwind in the inviting hot tub or explore the mature gardens with scenic views of the surrounding orchards.

Upon entering, you'll find a welcoming entrance area, complete with seating and a convenient coat-hanging space. This space also provides access to the utility room, which is equipped with essential appliances, including a washing machine, tumble dryer, fridge and sink.

The kitchen, designed in a charming farmhouse style, features an electric range cooker, integrated fridge and freezer, dishwasher, a sink with a view of the gardens, a microwave and a coffee machine for your culinary needs.

The sitting room is a double-aspect area, offering comfortable seating for eight to 10 people. It includes a gas effect wood-burning stove to keep things cosy and a smart TV for your entertainment.

Connected to the sitting room, the dining room boasts a large table with seating for eight to 10 guests. Additionally, a staircase leads to the first floor, making it a convenient and inviting space for meals and gatherings.

Indulge in local delights during your stay. Try Cheesemakers of Canterbury's exquisite cheese, available just a short 15-minute walk from the cottage. For a delightful meal, visit The Dove at Dargate, honoured as 'Best Pub of 2019' by Shepherd Neame. Nearby, you can explore Victory Woods or Blean Woods. Venture further to experience the historic charm of Canterbury, the market town of Faversham, or the coastal allure of Whitstable, all within easy reach for a true taste of Kent.
