Summer Fete - 40th Birthday Celebrations Sat 27 Aug · 11am · FREE
There is nothing that says community quite like a good old fashioned English country fete! Bring the whole family and expect all your favourites taking over the Trinity gardens – bouncy castles, face painting, a coconut shy, a tombola, a slime stall, hook-a-duck, corn hole and so much cake! There’ll be food offerings from local independent businesses and musical entertainment from up-and-coming artists & community groups.

Ceilidh /’keili’ / – a social event with Celtic folk music, traditional dancing, and storytelling. If you have never done a ceilidh, you have been missing out one of life’s great pleasures. A good celtic band will have you forgetting your inhibitions whilst dancing like a gleeful lunatic. So, whether you’re a beginner or a seasoned barn dancer, join us for lappings of summer drinks, too much BBQ food and an unforgettable highland fling this bank holiday weekend.
The Good Ship Comedy Club With: Nathan Caton, Matt Stellingwerf & Cally Beaton · Sat 20 Aug · 8pm · £13 (£20 Meal Ticket)
Nathan Caton’s charismatic and laidback style of stand-up has seen him quickly establish himself on the comedy circuit. Matt is a slacker comic who remembered to pay attention at school, a super-cool tatooed rocker with a nerdy streak running all the way through him. Cally Beaton is a natural storyteller full of intelligent, distinctive, and punchlinerich material. A rollercoaster ride of anecdotes, observations, and stuff even your best mate wouldn’t admit to.




WELL-CONNECTED RURAL HOMES
Berkeley homes tick all the boxes
The enduring appeal of ‘connected countryside living’ has become truly established as a top priority for buyers over the last few years and looks like it is here to stay. With Kent well known for its well-connected quintessentially English towns and villages, it comes as no surprise that the county has become increasingly popular with buyers.
Local developer, Berkeley, has a range of developments across the county dubbed the Garden of England, each situated in rural countryside settings yet all benefit from swift connections into London and beyond. Suitable for a range of buyers, Berkeley homes effortlessly blend traditional architecture with modern touches perfect for everyday living.
Foal Hurst Green in Paddock Wood has recently launched its latest phase, Meadow Quarter. This comprises a collection of three, four and five-bedroom homes set in the heart of the neighbourhood between Foal Hurst Wood nature reserve and a picturesque duck pond and bandstand – ideal for those wanting a true rural escape. For commuters, the train station is just 1.1 miles from the development which affords speedy, direct rail links to London Bridge in only 41 minutes, providing the perfect balance of country and city living. Prices start from £495,000* for a three-bedroom house.
A short drive away you’ll find Royal Tunbridge Wells a characterful, historic commuter town with extensive amenities including a popular high street and shopping centre. Situated on the outskirts of the town is Hollyfields a well-established community offering a range of apartments, houses, and coach houses. Boasting beautiful landscaping, play areas and on-site school St Peters CofE Primary School, Hollyfields also boasts its very own dedicated residents’ shuttle bus to and from the train station, which can be found a mere 1.2 miles away. Prices start from £350,000 for a onebedroom apartment.
Berkeley’s latest development, launching later this year, is Farmstead which will deliver an exclusive gated collection of 28 three- and four-bedroom houses and a five-bedroom farmhouse situated near the stunning rural town of Cranbrook. Prices will start from circa £630,000*.
