Rumwold was a perfect escape and getaway from the heat of the city during summer – we’ll definitely be back!
We stayed in Rumwold during one of the July heatwaves and found it to be a brilliant antidote to London’s heat and intensity. The farm is such a peaceful place to spend time, and waking up and spending time around the friendly sheep was a wonderfully relaxing experience. We loved being able to buy Romney wool, and were exceptionally grateful to Kristina who allowed us to spend time with some of the bottle feeding lambs too!
The hut was beautifully appointed and really well equipped. We found a brilliant range of products ready for our use, and loved the range of things that were available – we could easily have stayed for much longer and still had all we needed. Perhaps the only thing that we’d benefit from is figuring out some way to get a little shade to the outdoor space – just so we could make the most of the views all day. The west-facing field allowed us to capture some wonderful sunsets, and the peace and quiet was just what we needed.
And what a wonderful location! With Dymchurch only a 5-10 mins drive down the road, a nearby Tesco Express and plenty of good food options including fabulous take away fish & chips and the Ocean Inn, this was a perfect base for us to explore bits of the Kent Coast.
Thoroughly enjoyed our visit, and can’t wait to return in different seasons!
