Hide in the Downs

4 units · Glamping, Tents12 acres · England
Hide in the Downs is a unique hideaway that prides itself on offering small luxuries whilst being immersed in nature. Both our huts have outdoor bathing to watch the night stars (and listening to the many owls) and our bell tents have beautifully presented private bathing facilities. Located in the heart of the North Downs AONB, we are in arguably the remotest part of Kent with no light pollution or noise. Our sites are positioned at each corner of our property (12 acres) and total privacy is guaranteed. We have a footpath running through the heart of the wild meadow that leads into a beautiful valley taking you to the village of Doddington (30 mins) where there is a terrific pub. Or a longer walk (1.5 hours) in the opposite direction to the village of Stalisfield where The Plough pub always serves the most delicious food. Many of our guests enjoy day trips to Faversham and Whistable where they can collect some fresh fish for the BBQ, you will also find an award winning butcher in Doddington. Hosted by Tom and Charlotte, who take hosting and customer experience very seriously. A lifelong dream of running a hotel as a child, being front of house is when Charlotte is in her element and will go far and beyond to ensure you have a great stay. Tom is on hand to help with any practicalities you may need assistance with. We are passionate about wildlife and believe in leaving nature alone, you will not find a manicured setting at Hide in The Downs, instead the meadow has been left to its own, which only contributes to your hidden experience. Whoever coined "blue and green should never be seen" was blind to nature, therefore you can expect these aesthetics to be seen across all our sites. The bell tents are comfortably furnished (one double and one kingsize) and come with a DVD player and lots of movies to choose from, an oven, a gas bbq and a beautifully presented private bathroom in a converted horse trailer. Whilst the two cosy shepherd's huts boast elegant decor and luxuries required to enjoy your home comforts.
