A tennis court can be found too, directly behind the barns which is for shared use of the barns.
Neighborhood
Oak Barn provides a great spot to unwind, play a game of tennis, or take walks along the Saxon Shore Way or the Royal Military Canal which are both an easy 1.5 miles walk from the site.
With the village shop and local pub just a ten-minute walk, there are good facilities within easy reach. The village sits on the edge of Romney Marsh, which is a great place to explore as it is atmospheric and filled with history.
The village of Bonnington has a vibrant community and all the essentials, with The Walnut Tree pub offering food, a village shop and stores with fresh local produce.
Just three miles away is The Farriers Arms at Mersham, a very popular village pub with a good menu.
Port Lympne Safari Park is only a seven-minute drive away and the traditional seaside town of Hythe with the delightful miniature steam railway, the Royal Military canal and a wonderful wide esplanade along the seafront is just seven miles away.
If you prefer a countryside ramble, the Saxon Shore Way is almost on the doorstep, or just head out to one of the many villages on Romney Marsh and do some exploring - the 14 historic village churches are well worth a visit.
If you need some retail therapy look no further than Ashford and the Designer Outlet centre, where you can pick up a bargain and enjoy one of the many cafes and restaurants.

It's just in the middle of no where, felt like one was imprisoned and quite difficult to locate.<br/>D whole compound or so to speak porch had very dirty surroundings filled with fallen leaves that hasnt seen a broom in ages, it wasnt fair to pay that kind of amount to come into a dirty surrounding. The inside had good facilities, but very tight cottage felt like those cottages in d old story book of the 16th centuries. Honestly not good for young vibrant guests.<br/> You'd be mad at yourselves n feel very isolated like in a far away cave . Transportation is almost non existence bus times r not honored which frm google n passerby happens only once or twice a day and u'd endup just waiting endlessly. Woe beside d person if it begins to rain while at it. Well, without a rented car, you are OYO (on your own). Good for vacation for very old people in their 80s to 100s. Mayb for 1 person certainly not for two bcos you'd practically be bombing into each other to move around in there.... didn't even take any single photo shoot in there bcos i was counting, days , mins hrs and secs to quickly exhaust the stay since it's non refundable<br/><br/>State of the environment was dirty.<br/>felt very isolated like in a far away cave . <br/>Transportation is almost non existence.<br/>No side attractions<br/>No where to go etc<br/>Was not happy that it's total booking value is non refundable its not fair to clients that want to cancel n r willing to pay a fraction of booking fee

The accommodation is lovely, we had a very comfortable stay and would recommend for a quiet rural stay but still pretty central, close to many places in Kent and East Sussex, e.g Dover, Canterbury, Rye.

Great place would stay again. Not sure if it’s mentioned on the page about paying the minimum of £25 for insurance against damages - we were surprised by that one. But all in all very good.

Very modern, cozy and very comfortable! Spotlessly clean with added little extras to make us feel very welcome!<br/><br/>There wasn’t anything we didn’t like about this property, everything was just perfect!

modern clean and in excellent condition.<br/>Host was exceptional and amazing<br/><br/>it was really very nice

The host met us to let us in the 'barn' and was super welcoming & thorough in explaining the layout of the barn - very helpful. <br/>Having a dishwasher and washing machine was fantastic, but also all the other amenities like milk, bread, tea/coffee machine and even (what we assume was their own) Ice Cream sample pots in the freezer was a really nice touch.<br/><br/>Purely a personal preference thing, the bed was too soft for my liking, however the partner loved it! <br/>Whilst there was no 'Live TV' (no aerial) at the time of our stay, having WiFi and ability to cast/screen share to the TV was great.

,Beautiful moderm decoration , cozy home from home feel. The little extras made it extra special, washing power, full kitchen and utensils, fresh milk, butter, eggs and CAKE on arrival. Peaceful countryside.<br/><br/>Be prepared to drive, the local pub is a 15 minute walk up the hill, food was average, noisy locals watching the football. Taxis £25 1 way to Ashford and again to Folkstone.
