The Belmont is a beautiful single level cottage situated in the village of Godmersham, just 8 miles from the historical City of Canterbury and 6 miles from Ashford with 40min fast trains into London St Pancreas.
On your doorstep is Godmersham Park, the inspiration for Jane Austin novels and depicted on the new bank of England £10 note.
The surrounding area of the North Kent Downs has great walks, and the neighbouring village of Wye has award winning pubs, and an array of different shops to meet your holiday needs.

There are 3 spacious bedrooms. One of the bedrooms can sleep a family with the advantage of a chairbed and travel cot. The study includes a sofabed and a large conservatory includes a daybed and trundle bed to accommodate further guests.
We are able to provide a travel cot and highchair. The study provides an area for working or reading with a large variety of books and sofa bed.
The conservatory is a light tranquil space idyllic for meditation and yoga, and includes a day bed with additional trundel bed.
The Kitchen/Dinner has the capacity to host large dinner parties. With a long table to seat 8 and a large breakfast bar to seat a further 4.
The dining room leads to a gorgeous, spacious garden with comfortable outdoor seating and logburner just outside the kitchen diner, study and conservatory.
Further into the garden there's a hammock to relax in the warmer months. Through the secret garden style leafy tunnel you walk out into a children's play area.
There is also a summer house, and a short climb up and you will be on the tree deck, a vantage point to sit and enjoy the beautiful views of the area of outstanding natural beauty.

Magic Christmas time!🎄🎁🎅
That are not enough words to describe the time we had Everything was marvellous!!! The Belmont place is clean,cozy everything you want is at the rich of your hand. We were welcomed by a gorgeous Christmas tree in the living room, a nice card and goodie basket and the best is the fire place in the living room where you can sit by the fire with a hot cup of mulled wine. The outdoor is also very nice with a big garden,fish pond,swing and a fire pit where you can sit by the fire even when the weather is not on its best. Nicola was very helpful and easy to communicate with, did her best to make sure we’ll have the most enjoyable stay. We definitely recommend The Belmont, book in and you won’t regret it.

Amazing stay!!!
I had the most amazing stay at The Belmont! I got in around 4pm just as it got dark and was in complete awe of the house and the garden areas, pictures really do not do it justice!! My friends and I really enjoyed using the kitchen area and living room specifically for our stay and everything that you would want at your own home was at your fingertips. We had the fireplaces going so the house stayed a nice toasty level of warm throughout the day and night. The beds were definitely so comfortable to sleep in that I didn’t even want to get out of mine! Chandra has done an amazing job and created an amazing home! Nicole the property manager is also so easy to communicate with and so welcoming! I can’t wait until the summer to hopefully book again and use the outside spaces more.

Welcome to The Belmont. Im Chandra the owner. Nikki is my property manager. We both feel that the Belmont has so much to offer with its wonderful garden and beautiful home. Its a real honour to share this with our guests.

Why they chose this property

The area is set in the Kent downs with amazing hiking trails that takes you through a country side filled with history. My family have enjoyed many days exploring what nature gives to us freely. Its a wonderful place to destress and reset for whatever lies ahead.
