The ground floor accommodation comprises; entrance porch, dual aspect sitting room, dining room, fitted kitchen and family bathroom. Upstairs are two great sized double bedrooms, one of which has en-suite W.C. The property also boasts a thatched annexe offering kitchen area, bathroom and two double bedrooms. This potentially almost doubles the size of the property. Formal cottage style gardens are considered a particular feature of the property enjoying privacy and seclusion with established shrubs and trees, lawns and shrubbery borders with climbing roses. The gardens are naturally divided into separate areas with trees and attractive fencing. The lawns wind round through arches into more informal garden areas extending on all sides. Immediately to the rear of the cottage is a large paved terrace, perfect for garden furniture. To the far end of the gardens is the block of three stables which have electric and water connected. The access at the rear leads to a circular driveway around a mature pond and offers off street parking for several cars. Beyond the driveway is access to the paddock and a small area of orchard with mixed fruit trees, the paddock is fenced and immediately adjoins farmland and enjoys an attractive backdrop. The property is positioned in the small sought-after village of Womenswold. The village lies within the catchment area for Barham Primary school and has easy access to the nearby villages of Barham and Bridge. The surrounding countryside offers lovely walking and cycling. The A2 is easily accessible, reaching the Cathedral City of Canterbury, Dover and the coastal towns. Canterbury offers comprehensive facilities with a large range of shops, schools and universities. Canterbury West station provides high speed rail services to London St. Pancras with a journey time of approx. 55 mins. Our Time Here When we first saw our home, we thought how idyllic it was. The gardens instantly won us over, flowing from one delightful area to another. Wildlife is diverse, and the gardens have many beautiful shrubs and trees. Wrapping around the whole property, you can always find somewhere sunny in the gardens to enjoy a glass or two! The living spaces in the house have worked well. The lounge has a huge inglenook, matched on the other side in the dining room with a smaller inglenook. They both have log burning stoves, which makes this a very cosy place to be in the winter. An added bonus is that we rarely need to use the gas central heating. The self-contained detached annexe adds to the versatility here. It's ideal for hosting family and friends when they come to stay providing comfortable and private accommodation. The Cottage sits in a rural, peaceful and friendly village. We overlook the surrounding fields and the summer sunset up on the meadow is truly breathtaking. Although in a rural setting, shops, bus stops and a train station are all within a five-minute drive.

There were two members of the public from Ropersole Park who came to express their concerns about the number of lorries parked in the lay by near their property The often took up too much space making it impossible for the residents of Ropersole unable to get out of their gateway. The amount of litter and filth left behind was an eyesore and very unpleasant for the locals to have to put up with. The Chairman explained that it was an on going problem all over Kent and until the promised lorry park was built there was very little that the Parish Council could do to influence things other than to keep complaining to the police if necessary, and to contact their MP. He explained that the Council was as frustrated as the residents were and offered his sympathy. The residents said that they regularly called the police and if they came out it was long after the lorries had gone.

  • Landscape Assessment of Kent 2004
    CHILHAM: STOUR VALLEY Location map: CHILHAMCHARACTER AREA DESCRIPTION North of Bilting, the Stour Valley becomes increasingly enclosed. The rolling sides of the valley support large arable fields in the east, while sweeps of parkland belonging to Godmersham Park and Chilham Castle cover most of the western slopes. On either side of the valley, dense woodland dominate the skyline and a number of substantial shaws and plantations on the lower slopes reflect the importance of game cover in this area. On the valley bottom, the river is picked out in places by waterside alders and occasional willows. The railway line is obscured for much of its length by trees. STOUR VALLEY Chilham lies within the larger character area of the Stour Valley within the Kent Downs AONB. The Great Stour is the most easterly of the three rivers cutting through the Downs. Like the Darent and the Medway, it too provided an early access route into the heart of Kent and formed an ancient focus for settlement. Today the Stour Valley is highly valued for the quality of its landscape, especially by the considerable numbers of walkers who follow the Stour Valley Walk or the North Downs Way National Trail. Despite its proximity to both Canterbury and Ashford, the Stour Valley retains a strong rural identity. Enclosed by steep scarps on both sides, with dense woodlands on the upper slopes, the valley is dominated by intensively farmed arable fields interspersed by broad sweeps of mature parkland. Unusually, there are no electricity pylons cluttering the views across the valley. North of Bilting, the river flows through a narrow, pastoral floodplain, dotted with trees such as willow and alder and drained by small ditches.

Report from County Cllr Michael Northey Cllr Michael Northey attended the meeting and stated that Kent County Council are introducing a plan to preserve Kent’s bees. As part of the council's "Plan Bee", there will be a review on the use of pesticides, grass-cutting schedules and opportunities to "green" buildings to be more pollinator friendly. KCC will also encourage communities to introduce pollinator habitats and educate people on the importance of these tiny residents. All information is available on the website On the 24 Jun 2019 - The Kent Biodiversity Strategy consultation was launched which aims to ensure the county’s natural environment regains and retains good health. Biodiversity is the variety of life on Earth, in all its forms, and the interactions between them – it is the wide range of living things and the habitats they rely on. Biodiversity does not just concern rare or endangered species and habitats, everything, even the most commonplace, has an important role in the wider ecosystem and the processes they support. The abundance of a species is also crucial in maintaining a healthy ecosystem.
