Photos and Description of the Kent vacation house rental

Maryland is a substantial (5,000sq ft) 1930's residence situated on the edge of a small village. Owned and managed by the team behind The Old Neptune (Prop No. 9479), it has been specifically set up for an extended family or groups of families to gather and enjoy each other's company and is available from Christmas and NY 2008. Featuring fabulous contemporary interiors and an acre of family friendly landscaped gardens, Maryland offers a quiet retreat for stressed out urbanites to re-charge and spend time with loved ones. Herne is on the North Kent Coast just 45 mins from the M25 with Whitstable an easy 10 minute drive and Canterbury 15 mins away...and Ocado deliver! There is an outdoor pool heated April-September, a children's play area, lawn and gated driveway for the little ones to enjoy in safety, with a spectacular vaulted conservatory dining room for the adults to eat, drink and be merry. A games room & SkyHD make it ideal for wet play days and keeping the older kids happy.
