Farmstay vacation rentals in River Medway

What a hidden gem of a place! We feel so lucky to have found Stable Oak Cottages and to have spent New Year there with our family celebrating our sons 18th. The place was gorgeous and the hot tub such a treat! The alpacas were great entertainment and the luxurious little touches from bath robes and sliders, to home baked bread and muffins were just wonderful. Highly recommend.

Spacious accommodation with nice views. We were given clear instructions and met on arrival. The fireplace Waa an added bonus. Not far from the Spa Valley railway and other attractions. Recommend for a weekend away or even a longer stay.

Beautiful location! Really enjoyed the stay at the barn - it’s a gorgeous space with beautiful hot tub. It has everything you need for a relaxing break and it is very close to the coast. Would def recommend

Jenny & Lisa both responded really quickly to messages and proactively sent really useful extra info on how to get there so we arrived stress free! Lovely barn conversion in beautiful countryside. Very clean & tidy throughout & as described. Perfect base for us to explore nearby attractions. Excellent local & wider recommendations in the info book with OS Map for walks if needed. Already recommended ‘The Old Barn’ to a friend! Thank you 😊

Our family enjoyed a three night stay and there was so much to do and see. The accommodation was excellent with very high standards. Our host was very welcoming. We would definitely stay again. Thank you Hilary.

Such a beautiful building and lovely surroundings. Was greeted by the friendly dogs on arrival and managed to get in earlier . The two downstairs bedrooms and bathrooms were amazing . Quirky furniture all around , well equipped kitchen . The bedroom up on the platform was lovely although a bit difficult to get to up the steep ladder. The bathroom up there was amazing. Just best used by the younger fitter adults . Had fun feeding the donkeys and watching the others use the zip line. Information available for local walks which was lovely and was recommend where to go for a beach day where it would not be so crowded. All in all had a lovely few days break there .

We had the most wonderful stay at Alice and Alan's cozy cowshed! The space was incredibly warm and inviting, providing a perfect retreat for both of us. Alice and Alan were exceptional hosts, always available to offer assistance and making sure we had everything we needed. They even allowed us to use their beautiful garden, which was such a lovely bonus. One of the highlights was when Alice and Alan kindly offered to drop us into town, saving us the hassle of getting a taxi. They also gave us great recommendations for cabs to get home later on. The stay was extremely nice, and we absolutely loved every moment. We would 100% go back and highly recommend this wonderful spot to anyone looking for a cozy, relaxing getaway!

We came from NZ, stayed for a month whilst visiting family nearby. We were very impressed with this cottage, it’s very comfortable and spacious. Having two double beds was great. Appreciated the travel cot and baby gate at top of stairs. The kitchen is large and well equipped, had everything we needed for the nights we wanted to cook. Easy off street parking right outside the house. The hosts were really accomodating and easy to deal with. It’s a beautiful place to stay and we hope to return again.

My 5 year old daughter and I spent a night here and it was absolutely blissful. She woke up and immediately wanted to see the lambs and spend time with a dog wandering around. We will be back as both she and I enjoyed it so much. Charlotte was so kind and even gave me some toothpaste I'd forgotten. Book if you can!

The stay was wonderful, our host was very welcoming there is nothing to be complained about. A lovely environment and lovely home.

Absolutely amazing, possibly the nicest host I've ever had. The place was fantastic, placed in a gorgeous location, had everything we could have wanted and close enough to town we could get in and do everything we wanted, we'll be keeping an eye out next time we're staying in the area.

Was an amazing stay. Incredibly peaceful, with lots of great walks. The Shepard’s hut and hot tub were amazing.

This is the BEST Airbnb we have ever stayed in and it was well worth the price we paid. It’s a totally private and unique experience and EVERY single detail has been considered for your enjoyment. The whole place is fantastic from the pod itself to the hot tub and bathroom. Our expectations were far exceeded, providing an airfryer, full sized fridge, coffee machine, projector even provided fresh eggs from their onsite hen’s. The bed was the most comfortable bed we have ever had I wanted to take that home with us. Listening to the horses gallop and a visit from Reggie the cat was just a bonus. Waking up to the sunrise, we didn’t shut the curtains for that reason. Charlotte lit the hot tub before our arrival and gave us a late check out as we arrived a little late. I would love to spend a week here. I cannot recommend it enough. Thank you so much we will definitely be returning!

We had a perfect weekend stay whilst attending a wedding at Cliffe Church and Cooling Castle. The accommodation was a 5 minute walk to the church and 5 minute drive to Cooling Castle, which was extremely convenient with two small children. The accommodation was beautiful, surprisingly spacious and clean. The parking facilities were great and the accommodation was very easy to find. We would definitely stay again when visiting the local area. Thanks Gabrielle 😊

Second time staying here and another amazing experience. Would go back again

Absolutely magical! Myself, Vicki, and our cockapoo Roly had the most incredible 4-day stay at Toby and Kate’s beautiful pool shed in Kent. This is our third time there! From the moment we arrived, we felt completely at home — the space is stunning, peaceful, and filled with thoughtful touches that made our stay extra special again. The pool shed really is a hidden gem — beautifully designed, cozy yet spacious, and surrounded by the most tranquil countryside. The pool itself was a total dream, and Roly had the best time exploring the garden and surrounding land (and occasionally stealing the spotlight himself!). Toby and Kate are the perfect hosts: warm, welcoming, and full of local tips. They’ve truly created something magical here — a perfect blend of comfort, charm, and a touch of luxury. We didn’t want to leave, and we’re already planning our return! Five stars just isn’t enough. Thank you for everything Toby and Kate. We look forward to seeing you again soon! Kindest regards xxx

A wonderful place. Chris was very helpful and knowledgeable. Spa facilities were a great way to relax at the end of a day exploring, or a great start to the morning. The kitchen had everything that was needed. The gardens were beautiful. We had a lovely sea view from the balcony, the sunrise was spectacular. Many thanks Chris for a peaceful stay, just what we needed.

We had a couple of problems with our reservations and payment but Ann was super helpful and flexible and we managed to book the cottage in the end. We arrived quite late which wasn’t a problem and the house was easy to find. We had a great stay and can’t say anything negative, really. Very nice recommendations for activities and Ann and Bob were very welcoming! The kids loved the garden and the animals. Thank you for everything! If we are going to be in the area in the future we will stay again.

I stayed at the Coach House Flat for a month whilst on a work placement and it was the perfect place to go back to and switch off. It had everything we needed and the surrounding areas were beautiful!

This is a lovely place to stay. The cabin is clean, well equipped and spacious. We all enjoyed relaxing by the wood fire. Communication with Sarissa and check-in was straightforward. We appreciated the folder full of information about the local area and things to do/places to eat.

A real gem in a very peaceful, private, rural location, within easy distance of Rye and many local places of interest. Bridget has created a very special place to stay. Welcoming and beautifully decorated, very clean, well thought through with everything you need to enjoy feeling 'at home' in the Cottage. Very well appointed. Very comfortable bed, large bedroom, wonderful shower, and great kitchen. Wonderful walks for miles from the doorstep with our 2 collies, along public footpaths and through the family farm, with glorious views of the countryside all around. Lots of wildlife and birdsong to enjoy. Highly recommend. We'll be back!

Really great stay. The cottage was perfectly situated for a weekend exploring the Kent countryside. Christopher and his family were good hosts and gave us some great recommendations. The cottage was really cute and well appointed. Thanks again!

Lovely little barn, with beautiful views. Vivienne let us book very last minute and yet she still bought all lovely goodies for breakfast. Vivienne is one of the nicest hosts we have met. Our Labrador loved it. There’s a lovely walk to the local pub. Only 20 mins drive from Rye. Will definitely return.

Thankyou for having us We enjoyed our stop over for the night and would highly recommend
