This charming property accommodates up to 12 guests in its six well-appointed bedrooms, with the option to add up to two extra guests for a nominal fee. The farmhouse features modern amenities, including four bathrooms, Wi-Fi, and ample parking for six cars. Guests can enjoy an exclusive, full-size heated indoor swimming pool, which ranges from 3ft to 6ft in depth, perfect for relaxation and recreation.

The location of Hop Farm is particularly advantageous, being less than two hours from London by car and just one hour via high-speed train.

The court is open for use daily from 11am to 1pm, though it is closed during the autumn and winter months. Nearby attractions include several dining options such as Coppers Bistro and the Ancho Inn, as well as historic sites like the world-renowned Canterbury Cathedral and the charming town of Sandwich, known for its golf courses, including the prestigious Royal St George's Golf Club.

Families will find plenty of activities in the vicinity, with attractions such as Wingham Wildlife Park, Howletts Zoo, and the beaches of Ramsgate, Margate, and Deal. Dover Castle, one of the largest and most well-preserved castles in England, is a highlight for children and adults alike. When booking a stay at Hop Farm, guests are encouraged to inform the hosts of their reason for visiting and the total number of guests, ensuring a tailored and enjoyable experience in this idyllic countryside retreat.
