“A charming 19th-century retreat just outside Royal Tunbridge Wells. Vintage charm meets quirky modern touches - think velvet drapes alongside playful red mushroom lamps. Guests can indulge in creative cuisine at the Hearth Restaurant. A delightful escape amidst serene gardens and scenic woodland. ”
