Roughlands is a comfortable country bungalow with its own large garden, surrounded by open fields and woodland on the edge of Romney Marsh. Set back from a quiet country lane between Appledore and Woodchurch, the bungalow overlooks a tranquil pasture field that’s often home to our grazing sheep — a beautiful view to wake up to.
Ideal for couples, families, or small groups, Roughlands offers a peaceful base to unwind, reconnect with nature, and enjoy everything this unique part of the Kent countryside has to offer. With walking routes on your doorstep, fishing lakes just next door, and Roughlands Wood behind, it’s a lovely rural escape - especially for those looking for a little more space and privacy.
Roughlands is just next door to our fishing lakes and can be accessed in a few minutes by driving to the Lodges carpark or walking.
