The Quaives estate covers 19 acres of prime Kent countryside so if you don’t feel inclined to venture very far, you’ll find plenty of space among the grounds to sit and read, stroll around our kitchen garden, do a bit of sunbathing (here’s hoping) or tuck into a freshly prepared picnic. Our tennis court will be available for idle knockabouts/highly competitive matches on a (literal) first come, first serve basis, and you’ll find a host of lawn games to play, too. Up at the Patio, we’ll be serving lunch and drinks throughout the afternoon and into the evening when we’ll also light up the fire pit.
