At Farmstead there’s a strong focus on protecting the stunning natural environment within which we live.

Residents at Farmstead can walk within almost five acres of protected habitats before reaching the open countryside, where you can ramble or embark on a nature trail. You’ll find conservation initiatives all around this development, with bespoke bat barns, hedgerows and brand-new ponds created to protect local birds and wildlife.

Existing woodlands, such as Turnden Woodland, are actively preserved and have sustainable planting strategies in place - with 42 new trees added so far.

Things to Do in Cranbrook

Whether you enjoy eating out or exploring historical landmarks, there’s something for everyone to enjoy in Cranbrook.

The Union Windmill is probably Cranbrook’s most famous attraction. Standing 22 metres tall, the mill towers over the market town and is often referred to as one of the oldest and finest-looking mills in the UK. For day trips, the 14th-century Scotney Castle and Sissinghurst Castle are just a short drive away and provide the perfect place to learn more about the history of the local area.

If you’re looking to stay active, there are plenty of sports facilities nearby. The Weald Sports Centre has a swimming pool, gym, and tennis, basketball, and badminton courts. There’s also the Hemstead Forest Equestrian Centre for keen riders, and for anglers, there’s the popular Hartley Lands Fishery. If you enjoy eating out, Cranbrook is home to the popular Hartley Coffee House and Farm Shop, where you can stock up on local produce while having a coffee and snack in the café. For traditional pub food, head to The George Hotel. Famous for hosting several monarchs, King Edward I and Queen Elizabeth I, today it’s known for its delicious home-cooked meals.

If you enjoy fine dining, visit The Small Holding Farm & Kitchen.  This award-winning restaurant serves food that has been farmed within a one-acre small holding. The menu is seasonal and often changes daily. Young families will also enjoy the range of parkland and wildlife nearby. If your kids love animals, head to Hop Farm at Paddock Wood, where they’ll meet llamas, mini-cows, ponies, goats, and rabbits.
