The nearest "Quality" bed and breakfast to the Channel Tunnel

Need the Channel Tunnel but don't want to stay in a noisy motorway Hotel? Stay in the countryside but yet be within very easy access for your journey to and from the Channel Tunnel.

Tucked away in the countryside, hidden at the foot of the beautiful North Downs is the tiny hamlet of Peene near Folkestone. Old Barn Cottage has a pretty garden and is situated in the heart of the hamlet and offers high quality B&B accommodation. It is an ideal base for a quiet retreat in the countryside or a stop over for the Channel Tunnel which is only 5 minutes away with the main line station to London 10 minutes away.

Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty
Walkers, cyclists, artists, horse riders and photographers alike all enjoy the scenery, wildlife and birds that this area offers. The chalk grassland hills is a site of special scientific interest. The area is a candidate for "Special Area for Conservation Designation" for the rare plants and animals it contains. Also within easy reach is the quaint old harbour of Folkestone, overlooking the channel to France (23 miles away). It is a maze of old pubs, restaurants and individual shops. The old high street within the creative quarter is a must for all tourists with art, music and restaurants alive with visitors throughout the year.

The towns of Dover and Deal with their historic castles are within easy reach as is the beautiful city of Canterbury with its stunning cathedral. A day trip to France either by Euro Tunnel or ferry is a brilliant day out so don't forget your passports.
