Magical family lodge near Canterbury with private indoor pool, games room and acres of gardens just minutes from the city.
Honeywood Lodge is one of those rare finds that feels instantly special. Tucked away in wonderfully private grounds yet only five minutes from the heart of Canterbury, this unique family-friendly lodge comes with its own indoor heated swimming pool, games room and sweeping tree-lined views. Once a secret breakout space for the owners’ children, it is now an exclusive holiday hideaway designed for unforgettable stays.
Step inside and you are greeted by a fun-filled ground floor that sets the tone for relaxed family time. The games area is perfect for friendly competitions, with air hockey and table football, while doors open out onto a decked verandah overlooking the gardens. The indoor pool complex is a real showstopper, flooded with natural light and heated to a comfortable temperature all year round. With poolside seating and views across the grounds, it is easy to spend hours here, whatever the weather.
Upstairs, the lodge opens into a bright and sociable open-plan living space. Sink into the sofas after a swim, gather around the dining table for family meals or keep things simple in the well-equipped kitchenette, which has everything you need for easy self-catering. The bedrooms are spread across the upper floors, offering flexible accommodation for families. There are two inviting double rooms and a cheerful twin, with additional z beds available for children on request, making this a brilliant option for multi-generational stays or groups with younger guests.
Outside, the sense of space continues. Set within two acres of landscaped gardens, there is plenty of room for children to roam, kick a football about in the playing field or enjoy lazy afternoons on the patio and swing seat. Despite the peaceful setting, civilisation is close at hand. Canterbury’s historic streets, cathedral and riverside walks are just moments away, while the seaside charm of Whitstable is within easy reach for beach days, seafood suppers and coastal adventures.
