Farmstay vacation rentals in Maidstone District

What a hidden gem of a place! We feel so lucky to have found Stable Oak Cottages and to have spent New Year there with our family celebrating our sons 18th. The place was gorgeous and the hot tub such a treat! The alpacas were great entertainment and the luxurious little touches from bath robes and sliders, to home baked bread and muffins were just wonderful. Highly recommend.

Spacious accommodation with nice views. We were given clear instructions and met on arrival. The fireplace Waa an added bonus. Not far from the Spa Valley railway and other attractions. Recommend for a weekend away or even a longer stay.

Lovely location, situated far enough away from the hustle and bustle of the towns but not too far to be completely cut off. Views from the top lounge were spectacular. Host was very friendly and informative about the area.

Jenny & Lisa both responded really quickly to messages and proactively sent really useful extra info on how to get there so we arrived stress free! Lovely barn conversion in beautiful countryside. Very clean & tidy throughout & as described. Perfect base for us to explore nearby attractions. Excellent local & wider recommendations in the info book with OS Map for walks if needed. Already recommended ‘The Old Barn’ to a friend! Thank you 😊

This get away for me & my best friend was amazing due to the beautiful location we chose. Honestly worth every penny & second that was spent here & I would do it all over again! Lovely place honestly & very well equipped with dishes & glasses & all sorts.

We had the most beautiful stay here. The place is full of charm, the decor, the gardens, the dogs, the donkeys and the lasagne supper! Alexis was such a welcoming host and local guide. The Oasthouse is so comfortable and has everything you need. Our son (5) absolutely loved it and we will absolutely be returning. Our walk to Bodiam Castle was fantastic too. Thank you very much!

We came from NZ, stayed for a month whilst visiting family nearby. We were very impressed with this cottage, it’s very comfortable and spacious. Having two double beds was great. Appreciated the travel cot and baby gate at top of stairs. The kitchen is large and well equipped, had everything we needed for the nights we wanted to cook. Easy off street parking right outside the house. The hosts were really accomodating and easy to deal with. It’s a beautiful place to stay and we hope to return again.

Another perfect stay! This time we stayed with our children and Alison had everything prepared for us including stair gates and a cot. The place was immaculate, we had everything we needed and we also really appreciated the pieces for breakfast! Hope to be back again soon.

My 5 year old daughter and I spent a night here and it was absolutely blissful. She woke up and immediately wanted to see the lambs and spend time with a dog wandering around. We will be back as both she and I enjoyed it so much. Charlotte was so kind and even gave me some toothpaste I'd forgotten. Book if you can!

This was our second time staying at James place, and it was as good as we remember. We had such a relaxing stay, the views are wonderful and the place was just so calm and peaceful. Jane was the perfect host, and nothing was too much of an ask. Jane made us feel welcome and at home. We will definitely be back in the summer. Can’t recommend enough.

WOW! I would move in tomorrow. Melanie's place was absolutely beautiful. Although on a main road, once your inside you would never know. So peaceful and views were beautiful. I wished we stayed longer. Will definitely recommend and be back. Dovecoat pub just down the road is very welcoming and friendly if you fancy going out.

Was an amazing stay. Incredibly peaceful, with lots of great walks. The Shepard’s hut and hot tub were amazing.

We had a perfect weekend stay whilst attending a wedding at Cliffe Church and Cooling Castle. The accommodation was a 5 minute walk to the church and 5 minute drive to Cooling Castle, which was extremely convenient with two small children. The accommodation was beautiful, surprisingly spacious and clean. The parking facilities were great and the accommodation was very easy to find. We would definitely stay again when visiting the local area. Thanks Gabrielle 😊

Amazing Vistas. Spotless bathroom. Nicely designed place. Very private. Warm and cosy :) Favourite thing was watching the Hythe - Dymchurch steam train go past, about a mile away across the horizon. Can also see Port Lympne safari park to the north. Really appreciated the shampoos, nice coffee, recommended walks and maps, and things for our baby. Some of the businesses in the house guide seem to be no more (Honeychild farm shop, one of the Indian restaurants and Dockers bakery) so come prepared, although you can get food delivered, and there are shops in driving distance.

Amazing place would definitely stay again

Absolutely magical! Myself, Vicki, and our cockapoo Roly had the most incredible 4-day stay at Toby and Kate’s beautiful pool shed in Kent. This is our third time there! From the moment we arrived, we felt completely at home — the space is stunning, peaceful, and filled with thoughtful touches that made our stay extra special again. The pool shed really is a hidden gem — beautifully designed, cozy yet spacious, and surrounded by the most tranquil countryside. The pool itself was a total dream, and Roly had the best time exploring the garden and surrounding land (and occasionally stealing the spotlight himself!). Toby and Kate are the perfect hosts: warm, welcoming, and full of local tips. They’ve truly created something magical here — a perfect blend of comfort, charm, and a touch of luxury. We didn’t want to leave, and we’re already planning our return! Five stars just isn’t enough. Thank you for everything Toby and Kate. We look forward to seeing you again soon! Kindest regards xxx

We had such a brilliant stay. Chris and Erick are lovely hosts and are there to help but leave you to very much enjoy your stay. The flat was gorgeous and really had everything we needed, it was spotless and very warm and cosy, the view is amazing too. The leisure facilities were incredible, hands down the best we’ve ever had in the UK (and we’ve stayed in lots or air bnbs). The pool is just perfect and gym, hot tub and steam room were wonderful too. The local area is great, loads to do, plus you’re in a country park so you can literally go on gorgeous walks right out of the front door.

The cottage is clean and very comfortable, full of character, and the garden was a massive bonus - much larger than I was expecting. Ann & Bob were wonderful hosts, interested, friendly and very helpful in recommending places to visit, as well as being incredibly kind and warm to our young children. It felt more like visiting family than a standard air bnb ❤️ Great location for visiting all sorts of places - forest, beach, farm, river, castles & historical buildings all easily reachable.

I stayed at the Coach House Flat for a month whilst on a work placement and it was the perfect place to go back to and switch off. It had everything we needed and the surrounding areas were beautiful!

This is a lovely place to stay. The cabin is clean, well equipped and spacious. We all enjoyed relaxing by the wood fire. Communication with Sarissa and check-in was straightforward. We appreciated the folder full of information about the local area and things to do/places to eat.

A real gem in a very peaceful, private, rural location, within easy distance of Rye and many local places of interest. Bridget has created a very special place to stay. Welcoming and beautifully decorated, very clean, well thought through with everything you need to enjoy feeling 'at home' in the Cottage. Very well appointed. Very comfortable bed, large bedroom, wonderful shower, and great kitchen. Wonderful walks for miles from the doorstep with our 2 collies, along public footpaths and through the family farm, with glorious views of the countryside all around. Lots of wildlife and birdsong to enjoy. Highly recommend. We'll be back!

We were a party of ten adults and one child staying at Martin’s home for the weekend. The property was superb, wonderfully decorated and fully equipped with everything we could possibly need. The gardens were beautiful. We were lucky to be blessed with fabulous weather and made the most of it. We were also lucky to be visiting during lambing season. Watching lambs being born was quite an experience. I would highly recommend this property and hope to revisit again one day

Really great stay. The cottage was perfectly situated for a weekend exploring the Kent countryside. Christopher and his family were good hosts and gave us some great recommendations. The cottage was really cute and well appointed. Thanks again!

Lovely little barn, with beautiful views. Vivienne let us book very last minute and yet she still bought all lovely goodies for breakfast. Vivienne is one of the nicest hosts we have met. Our Labrador loved it. There’s a lovely walk to the local pub. Only 20 mins drive from Rye. Will definitely return.
