Local Country Pubs

Lots of lovely local pubs with great food to explore.
Definitely recommend a trip to the Three Chimneys pub in Biddenden. Delicious food and wine and good selection of beers and ales. Lots of outside space, lovely dining area inside. Walk across the fields or hop in the car and it’s less than 5 mins away. Definitely good idea to book ahead.

Such a great vineyard to visit - tours and tastings along with sharing platters as sourdough pizzas. Friendly welcome, delicious wines … even the red is nice! They hold special events so check them out before you come to see what is on. Booking is recommended. The art is beautiful there too and is available to buy!
