One-street Tudor village featuring half-timbered buildings, a historic pub & a quaint tea room.
Beautiful little one street village. Despite living just a few miles away, I had never visited before so glad I got the opportunity to do so. Parking in the village is free, although on busier days it may be better to park at the castle. A nice cosy tearoom hides down one alley (they make great cake), and a lovely country pub is by the pedestrian entrance to the castle. The buildings themselves are gorgeous, the sort of buildings you would imagine an English village to look like. There's also a church you can visit, we were lucky enough to be the only people inside so it was very serene. Make sure you check out the village's namesake, tucked away down an alley so it's easy to miss! The view from the top is beautiful and looks put over fields. If you're as lucky as we were you'll also catch birds of prey flying overhead.
A wonderful small village built 1400. One short high street with free parking. Great pub, village shop and post office tea rooms all open. A beautiful church open to visit and a short walk to the Chid stone. Large private home/castle open to visit for PS11. With lovely tea rooms and a vintage shop. All well worth a visit.
A delightful tiny village but obviously popular. All old grey stone typically English. Would recommend the tea room where we ate sausage rolls with salad for a late lunch followed by an afternoon tea of delicious cakes. The gift shop was also worth a visit. We chatted to the proprietor, one of the village's 12 permanent residents.
Pretty quaint little village with wonderful Castle and church. Lovely tea room in middle of village too with great food! Nice afternoon wander.
We hiked from Hever to Leigh. It was approximately a 4-5 hours hike with mostly beautiful farm landscapes. There are also a lot of pretty English villages along the way. The hike was mostly flat, along footpaths, and suitable for families. Will definitely recommend.
Beautiful quiet place. Very friendly locals.
