The lodge

Newly built, finished to a high modern standard

Lydden Bell Lodge combines modern interiors with a quiet village setting. You'll find comfortable living spaces, four bedrooms, two bathrooms and an outdoor terrace overlooking the countryside.

It shares its grounds with The Lydden Bell, a grade II listed traditional Kentish inn that has stood here since the 16th century and serves food all day. Guests of the lodge are welcome to use it, and the large beer garden overlooking the valley is a two-minute walk.

Outside

A private hot tub, a sun terrace and the best views in the area

The lodge sits at the top of the village, which means the ground falls away from the terrace into the Lydden valley. There is a private hot tub to soak in, a sun terrace for long afternoons, and an outdoor seating area for guests to enjoy.
