Kitty's Loft

Type: Self-Catering

Kitty’s Loft, which received a Highly Commended Award in the Tourism South East ExSEllence Awards 2006, is part of a hamlet of seven privately owned converted barns and is set in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The original dwellings are believed to date back to Domesday times, 1086. Conversion of the farm buildings, to very high specifications, began in 1980.
