The Details...

This incredibly stylish little getaway for two used to be a shepherd's hut, but you wouldn't know it now. It's been converted with impeccable taste into a chic and peaceful high-spec rural retreat, with a cosy woodburner, exposed brickwork and huge windows giving views across vineyards and countryside to the Romney Marshes.

The Lookers Retreat is snug and warm, the open-plan living and kitchen room contains a large woodburner, plus a comfy sofa, with double aspect views provided by doors which can open up on warm sunny days to let the beautiful Kent countryside in.

The bedroom is a tranquil little haven and a large picture window gives you amazing views right from the bed. There's no need to worry about being overlooked - this property is quiet and secluded, your nearest neighbours are sheep. A neat bathroom with a walk in shower and clean white tiles adjoins the bedroom.

Outside, the views sweep away across farmland and fields, towards the stunning marshes. You can take in the views from the hot tub, sheltered against the wall of the house. Walking and cycling routes lead to the local inn, the 14th-century Ferry, which serves an excellent seasonal menu.
