A personal comment from the owner.'Robin Cottage dates back to the origins of Great Kingshill, being one of a few farmhouses scattered around the central common in the early 1800s. It has been our lovely home for the past 12 years and has given us many special memories in that time. It is a spacious family home, full of authentic character, with the kitchen, and its Aga, forming the heart of the living space. There is an adjoining breakfast room which is used for informal meals and a snug for everyday living, with its cozy woodburner for the winter.The large dining room and the drawing room come into their own for entertaining. In the summer, the large garden with its different lawn spaces, gives us various places to enjoy an outdoor drink or a meal and has been a welcome haven for the grandchildren to play in when growing up.There is considerable bedroom accommodation, which is ideal for friends and family visits, plus the extended garage has plenty of space for cars, garden furniture and tools. We will be very sad to leave Robin Cottage but know it is time for the next generation to love it as much as we have.
