SITUATION
The property is located in a rural position overlooking farmland and a golf course, between the popular villages of Offham and St Mary's Platt. It is set just off Seven Mile Lane, which conveniently provides a link to nearby towns and the motorway network to the North.
The area is known locally as "Comp" which was once a 700 acre estate surrounding Great Comp, a 17th Century manor house that still stands today and is best known for its gardens, which are a popular Kent attraction, just down the road from this property.
The more widely known "St Mary's Platt" (1.2 miles) has a beautiful Victorian Anglican Church and well regarded Blue Anchor pub . Offham village is 1.2 miles to the East with a another well regarded pub and farm shop. 1.5 miles to the south on Seven Mile Lane is The Moody Mare pub and Wrotham Heath Golf Club is a third of a mile up Seven Mile Lane, which the cottage has a fine view over.
The M26 (Jct 2a) is accessible just 2 miles to the North and the M20 (Jct 2) is just another mile beyond that, both linking to the M25 (junctions 5 and 3 respectively) and Folkestone.
West Malling and Borough Green (both about 2.8 miles) offer a good selection of shops, cafes, and other facilities. Maidstone (11 miles), Tunbridge Wells (14.5 miles) and Bluewater (18 miles) are also within reasonable driving distance.
West Malling (3.3 miles) and Borough Green stations (3 miles) offer rail services to London Victoria and Cannon Street (Borough Green to Victoria in about 50 minutes; London Bridge from around 37 minutes).
St Mary's Platt (Good) and Offham (Outstanding) have primary schools. Wrotham and Kings Hill both have secondary schools. Tonbridge, Sevenoaks and Otford offer a good selection of preparatory schools. Tonbridge, Tunbridge Wells and Maidstone all have grammar schools. Sevenoaks and Tonbridge public schools.
All mileages/times are approximate.

Continue through the village, passing the Church on your left. Continue onto Comp Lane. Follow the lane for just over a mile, passing Great Comp Garden.
