2 LOCATION: This cottage is just a short walk to the delightful village centre around the village green where one can find historic and award winning amenities. Although the word Horsmonden is derived from the Anglo-Saxon hors bunna denne or the horse farmer valley, it is mostly believed that the village predominantly grew around the gun-making factories on Horsmonden Heath. The Furnace Pond is one of the largest artificial lakes, made to provide water for the works. The central hub of the community is the large village green which plays hosts to numerous events; summer fetes, charity events, jubilee celebrations, and notably its well-established farmers market selling good local fayre including a good selection of meats, cheeses, eggs, game, fruit and veg, pies to name but a few. Horsmonden s popularity is partly due to its sporting lifestyle choices with the tennis court and club, football club, sports field and cricket club. Golf courses abound locally and the recently remodelled and relaunched Bewl Water reservoir nearby provides further sporting and leisure activities. The 16 th C, National Trust owned Spriver s Mansion a secluded Georgian country house set in 100 acres of grounds is an idyllic walking spot. For those who do not know this delightful village may we list a few points of interest and convenience. Heath Stores was voted Britain s best village shop in 2015 and is open 7 days a week selling top quality locally sourced fresh meat, fish, vegetables, cheeses, home cooked bread, groceries, an off licence, newspapers and magazines, the landmark Gun and Spitroast village pub and restaurant, a pharmacy, a doctors surgery, an MOT centre and garage, a hairdresser, a secluded yet glorious church, a wood-fired pizza van every Thursday, and a fish-and-chip van on Wednesdays. Villagers are particularly proud of the Kindergarten as well as the good Primary School. For schooling in the private sector one has a wide choice all within a reasonable driving distance. The nearest main line railway station (4.5 miles) is at Paddock Wood (with an adjacent Waitrose) providing fast and frequent services to London Bridge, Charing Cross/Cannon Street, Gatwick, Heathrow, and Ashford International with its excellent services to Europe.
