Please note that you need to reserve a table if you would like dinner. Children under 10 years are not allowed in the restaurant after 20:00.
The reception for guests is open Monday to Friday 7am to 8pm, Saturday 8am to 6pm and Sunday 8am to 12pm. When the reception is closed the keys can be collected from the pub/restaurant.
Breakfast is served Monday to Friday 07:00 to 09:30, and Saturday and Sunday 08:00 to 10:00.
If arriving by car, be careful when using satellite navigation. After M20 junction 7, as you come into the A249, most sat-nav systems will send you the wrong side of the Pilgrims Way. Please ensure you turn right into Detling Village, NOT left towards Boxley Village.
Check-in outside of the check-in times is not possible.

Guest Reviews
Location,
Amazing for a traditional Kentish feel with its narrow country lanes and being set into the countryside.
The food and beverage,
Very nice menu, but not a huge choice. It is a little above average on price, there is a big BUT!
So the slightly higher price keeps the selection local and fresh with the food quality being 5 star.
The room,
When you stay here and chat with the proprietor and staff, you understand the history and the work to look after this amazing property, so we understand the room was a little dated and in need of some investment, but its clean, comfy and due to the grounds and main pub, you will love staying.
Not so much we did not like, just suggestions for improvements,
A mini fridge would have been the only room convenience that was missing.
TV, small for accommodation these days, if you like to watch some late night TV in bed.
Great location, large room in the grounds, beautiful old traditional pub with excellent food.
overbath shower is very average and heater in bathroom didn't work
Lovely and helpful staff.
We have been coming here for 20 years and it’s always excellent service and amazing quality.
All the food is locally sourced and prepared and served to a high standard.
Would most definitely recommend, I’m looking forward to our next stay 😊
Nothing
Attached pub was lovely, food super and staff accommodating. Good parking, felt safe.
Room and bathroom was tired and worn. Furniture was dated and cold on arrival. Storage heaters not turned on. Pillows and duvet not comfortable.
We had a lovely time here. The room was beautiful and well-maintained. A huge thanks to the staff, who were very friendly and made us feel welcome from the moment we arrived.
food was great
Good atmosphere in pub. Great cooked-to-order breakfast
Bathroom tired. Hooks missing so insufficient towel hanging and washbasin plug difficult to manage (Mistletoe room)
Great place, excellent friendly staff, really good breakfast.
Excellent friendly inn right on the pilgrims way and also very dog friendly.. comfortable chalet style accomodation and a lovely traditional bar restaurant
The heater doesn't seem to be adjustable in the room so it's either really hot or off .. maybe I wasn't using it correctly
Sehr saubere gemütliche Zimmer und auch unsere 3 Hunde waren willkommen. Wir waren schon mehrmals dort. Vielen Dank.
room was clean and comfortable and dinner in the evening was lovely didnt stay for breakfast because of leaving early but imagine would of been lovely if the food we had in the evening was anything to go by really nice stay and lovely pub would definitely stay again.
no negative remarks at all
