Beautiful area

Guests love this home’s scenic location.
Broxhall Farm is a traditional family farm set in some of The Garden of England's finest countryside.
We warmly invite you to enjoy a glamping experience in The Herdsman's Hut.  Unique and  hand built, The Herdsman's Hut is fully equipped with an en-suite bathroom and mini kitchenette, and features beautiful exposed oak beams and a cosy woodburning stove. It's safe to say we're a fan of glamping and smoothing the edges of roughing it. 
We look forward to welcoming you to our farm.

The space
The Herdsman's Hut is a unique one- of- a- kind glamping experience.  Take in the spectacular views of the stunning Kent countryside without meeting anyone except the passing cows peacefully munching the grass nearby. 

​

A cosy, private retreat for 2, the hut features a double bed with sprung mattress, plump pillows and crisp cotton linen. The narrow en-suite shower room has hot running water, an electric shower and a proper toilet, with the small kitchenette featuring an electric hob and mini fridge for rustling up simple meals. Alternatively you can fire up the fire pit and BBQ outside and cook under open skies. Speaking of firing up, the cosy hut is completed with a mini wood burning stove. There is nothing more magical than gathering up the wood and settling down in the cabin, feet up, as the fire burns long into the evening. The hut also has it's own electricity supply, so you don't have to leave any of your home comforts behind. 

​

If you do choose to leave your secluded hideout in search of food, you can walk straight across our rolling fields to The Duck which is a quintessential English country pub and has an excellent reputation. And best of all it's a short stumble home again!
