Tillingham
Tillingham is set amongst 70 acres of rolling hills and woodlands with far reaching views along the Tillingham River valley, across the fortified hilltop town of Rye to the Romney salt marshes and the distant sea. A mixed farm dating from the 13th century, Tillingham is home to vineyards, fruit trees, ancient woodland and livestock. The recently renovated farmstead provides a place for visitors to stay and enjoy the produce of the farm and the local area.
