New Langley Farmhouse sits at the northern end of the farm and is built in a traditional style, with brick and weatherboard elevations under a claytiled roof.

Situation
New Langley Farm is situated in an accessible rural location nestled between the villages of Smarden and Bethersden in the heart of Kent. Both villages are well served, with butchers, village Post Offices and pubs, a farm shop, a village hall and a parish church, as well as a primary school. The well-regarded and nearby town of Tenterden offers a wealth of shops, supermarkets, amenities, and leisure facilities, whilst even more extensive retail and leisure activities are situated at Ashford which also benefits from mainline railway station with access to HS1.
Sporting and recreation
There is an abundance of sporting and recreational facilities including golf at Charts Hill Golf Club and Tenterden Golf Club, National Trust properties such as Sissinghurst and a profusion of walks, including Dering Woods and the beach at Camber.
Schools
Nearby schools include those in Ashford (outstanding-rated Highworth Grammar School and the independent Ashford School). The King’s School and others found in Canterbury are easy to access, Benenden; the trains from Pluckley also allow children to attend school in Tonbridge, Sevenoaks and elsewhere if desired.
History
During WW2 the farm formed part of RAF High Halden, a former RAF advanced landing ground which was used by the US Air Force during the run up to the D-Day. It was closed in September 1944 and returned to agricultural land. The position of the runway can still be seen and it is understood that the current buildings at New Langley Farm are positioned on the site of those buildings which may have been used by the US Air Force during this time.
