Lovely girls weekend

Had a great stay, group of girls and dogs. Alan was a great host and we found the property to be well equipped. We did struggle with the super soft beds ending in back ache but apart from that everything was perfect.

A lovely stay in a Kent Oast House

Our family gathered to celebrate a big birthday at The Oast for a few days. The whole process, from booking with Bloom Stays to arriving and meeting the very friendly and helpful owner was smooth and seamless. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and the house has everything you need. Four bedrooms, accommodating 8 people were comfortable and equipped with everything you need. One en suite and two other bathrooms were adequate. In March we couldn't enjoy the outdoor facilities but have no doubt in good weather it would be a very pleasant place to eat and sit outside with a view over the fields and super sunsets, Lots to do and see nearby and an excellent pub next door (literally!) and other eats places in Tenterden and Rye.

We had an amazing stay and Christmas we had within this lovely Oast house. The host Alan was so accommodating from arriving to departure - Alan you’re the best! There is an amazing pub right next door called the White Hart, we ate there and the food was first class - the landlord was very friendly too. There is a Morrisons and Tesco within ten minutes up the road and wonderful country walks. Christmas itself was like being in the movie ‘The Holiday’ - we will definitely return and to also meet up with Alan again.Many thanks Alan Mark, Sharon and family

Beautiful building in great location

We really enjoyed our stay with our family group in the Oast. It is a very special place to stay, with lovely circular rooms in the oast and some of the original machinery still in place in the staircase. There is plenty of space for eight. Some nice touches e.g. coffee machine, board games, towels for the dog (if you are bringing one), cosy wood burner in the lounge. The location is beautiful and well placed for visiting west Kent. The owner, Alan, was super-helpful, especially on our arrival.

Fantastic venue

I hired The Oast for my 60th birthday celebrations. The venue is fantastic for hosting a party. I managed to hire a jacuzzi, which made the week even more special. Alan the owner is a very good host and will do what he can to make your stay a enjoyable as possible.

Very lovely

We had a lovely family weekend at The Oast. The owner was extremely accommodating of our elderly mum's needs, and everything was as we expected it to be. It's a beautiful property, in a fantastic location near the pub, a cafe and a riverside tearoom. Highly recommended.

Eight people in the Oast for a weeks stay

There were 4x couples staying in the Oast comprising me and my 3 cousins & partners. The Oast provided good accommodation for 8 people, has a good kitchen and is well stocked with plates, glasses etc for so many people+. Newenden is well located for exploring Kent and the many attractions around the area.

Very enjoyable property

Nice property to stay in for a family. Nice instruction booklet with information as well as lits of leaflets for activities to do around local area. Unfortunately the pub next door had gardening at 8am with strimmers and lawnmowers going. Overall the area is beautiful and can be quite despite being next to the main road. We enjoyed our stay :)

Lovely stay in charming oast

Our family stay (5 adults) in this quirky and sympathetically renovated oast was lovely. The oast was very comfortable and well equipped. We had fantastic weather so were able to make great use of the outdoor space and BBQ and enjoy the views over the fields (though the oast also offered a large kitchen/diner and lounge area for less good weather). There are many nearby gardens, beaches, and other things to visit and we had a fantastic Indian takeaway from the restaurant a couple of minutes down the road - thanks for the recommendation Alan!

The Oast at Newenden

The property was very well equipped and there is even an electric car charging point. The location is excellent with Hastings (fish market, beach and the old town); Battle Abbey (excellent and enjoyed by the smaller and larger people); Rye (one of the Cinque ports, Waterworks brewery); and the Kent and East Sussex Railway (to Bodium Castle). Alan, our host, was very helpful. Highly recommended!

The Oast is breathtaking

Gorgeous stay at The Oast. There were eight of us (including a 7 and 3 year old) Beautiful home. Kitchen fairly well equipped - it’s an Induction hob so if you bring your own pans they will need to be induction ones. Alan the owner is such a lovely sweet man who was very helpful. We had full privacy of the beautiful house and gorgeous grounds and it was a wonderful family break.
