Fully carpeted in 100% wool berber-style carpets, all the bedrooms at The Cleves have their own, unique appeal. Most enjoy truly spectacular outlooks over the garden and trees to the south, across the Holmesdale valley and onto the Greensand Ridge beyond.

The Cleves has a very special character, with a mix of impressive period formality and natural rustic charm. The grounds, extending to well over an acre, are entered through grand, automatic, wrought iron gates; and are sheltered from the North by vast mature beech trees. To the south, each house opens onto a generous private patio, paved in natural, Indian stone, planted with herbaceous borders and with mellow brick walls forming a division between the private and open space. Wicket gates lead to the shared garden; a large area of formal and landscaped lawns which is surrounded by areas of informal garden with rough grass giving seasonal displays of daffodils, bluebells and primroses.

To the east of the grounds a path leads through a narrow woodland shaw and opens onto Kemsing’s superb “Common Field,” about 25 acres of mown grass with a well-equipped child’s play area and tennis club with three courts and a pretty pavilion. To the west, a path leads through a wooded part of the garden to the public footpath which goes up the Downs to The Pilgrims Way, the ancient pathway from London to Canterbury which follows along the southern scarp of the Downs for most of the way.
