This page: The stunning grounds are the perfect place to relax and dine; Tucked away outside in the converted garage there’s a games room packed with all the entertainment that a teenager might need was so important to get good mattresses – in fact people have asked where the mattresses came from. We got them from ’Tasha Interiors on the Goudhurst Road. They offer a really personal service and the mattresses are all British made.” It can be tricky to make a large space feel cosy, but the underfloor heating in the bathrooms and kitchen help. The oast sitting room has a welcoming feel, there’s a snug at the other end of the house and although the open plan kitchen is huge, the magnificent Aga at one end brings a homely feel. “The Aga is on all the time,” explains Tricia, “but it stays cool in the summer as the downstairs is so airy. We can also open the windows here at this end and then get airflow and a cool breeze, so it’s not stuffy. “We’ve had to pick furniture and things to fit in with the schemes, but sometimes quirky pieces really work. The oversized chair was bought for my own house, but when you buy things online it’s so hard to judge the scale of them. So when this arrived it was far too large, totally out of scale, but I knew exactly where it would fit here.” Outside there’s a large and comfortable terrace surrounded by immaculate rose beds edged with nepeta and herbaceous perennials. A beautiful little summerhouse looks out over a large striped lawn and in the converted garage there’s a games room packed with all the entertainment that a teenager might need. As we step outside from the serene, organised blues of the house interior into the greens of the landscape it’s easy to see how Tricia and her family fell in love with their holiday home. Horses graze in the next field and beyond them is the deep wooded calm of the Pinetum. There’s no traffic noise, no real hint of human activity – just the sound of birds singing and the rustle of the leaves in the trees. Tricia has given much thought and care to ensure that visitors to the oast are able to experience a relaxing slice of all this and enjoy a luxuriously comfortable stay in a fabulous icon of the Kent countryside.
