STAY AT THE FARM
Stay a little longer
Tucked into the Kent countryside, Shepherds Close offers two ways to settle into life here. Wisteria Lodge is our secluded countryside retreat, surrounded by gardens and the rhythms of the farm. Our new glamping hideaway, coming 2027, offers something wilder — a beautifully crafted space set within the landscape, designed for slow mornings, long evenings and sleeping close to nature.
Two different stays. One farm rhythm.
Glamping Pod
COMING 2027Steam-bent wood creates a glamping experience like none other. Wake up in a field of wildflowers to the sound of birds and the pitter patter of rabbits running riot. Enjoy sweeping views down the valley of apple orchards.
