A personal comment from the owner.'We have loved living at Hillside. It is a privilege to have a home that is steeped in 300 years of history and that has likely been at various points a turkey farm and a cider brewery! Believed to be one of the oldest houses in Great Kingshill, its unique character has been added to over the years making it a series of special and spacious social areas. From the kitchen-living-diner with beautiful beams (some thought to be medieval); the Victorian dining room with its double aspect windows flooding the room with light through to sunset; and the cozy sitting room with its log burner - we love the variety and the freedom the house affords. Similarly the cottage garden is a series of separate spaces that can be used at different times of the year and the day, as the sun moves around the house from dawn to sunset, when we have enjoyed, often with lots of family and friends, shaded lunches and evening drinks basking in the late sun. And there is so much literally on the doorstep, as you cross the road and through the kissing gate opposite, where we are a short, safe walk through ancient woods to Peterley Manor Farm and The Polecat, all without seeing or crossing a road. We will leave Hillside with the fondest of memories as it continues its 300 years and counting of memories.'\r
