Overview
Description
This stunning converted barn offers generous, stylish group accommodation in Kent – designed with both comfort and character in mind. Its striking double-storey windows and traditional barn door shutters make for a dramatic welcome.Inside, a large open-plan kitchen, lounge and dining area forms the heart of the home. The showstopper is the 18-seat dining table set beneath a soaring ceiling, with picture windows framing wide views of the surrounding countryside. It’s a sociable, light-filled space that brings people together, whether you’re cooking, relaxing or celebrating.
While this luxury barn holiday rental is impressive in scale, it retains plenty of rustic charm – stone-flagged floors, warm woods and exposed beams all nod to the building’s heritage. Six ensuite bedrooms offer comfort and privacy for larger groups, while the cosy lounge area with its U-shaped sofa and flatscreen TV invites relaxed evenings in.
The well-equipped kitchen has everything you need for a seamless self-catering stay, including a large American-style fridge freezer and dishwasher.
Beyond the front door, guests can enjoy shared access to a games room and a two-acre dog exercise paddock*. A short walk away, The Ferry House offers award-winning dining and waterside views. Just a short stroll from the cottage, our 2AA Rosette restaurant, The Ferry House, serves breakfast, lunch and dinner with views over the Swale estuary. It’s dog-friendly, with private dining available for groups. Pre-booking is essential, as opening hours may vary due to private events.
In-cottage catering is also available, including heat-and-serve traybakes, grazing boards and brunch platters.
From April 2026, The Ferry House will open only for special dining events, with private dining and events, and in-cottage catering continuing.
For those seeking space, style and peace in the Kent countryside, The Saltings is a holiday home that delivers on every front.

Leave ReviewAlways a wonderful time at Mockett's Farm
By Pamela F on 30-Jun-2025Always a wonderful time at Mockett's Farm I stayed here recently with my family and our dogs - it was our first time staying here with all the family but it was me and my husbands 6 times staying! We stayed in the Saltings and the house is beautifully decorated and we loved the massive kitchen and dining table. We were lucky with good weather while we were there so we made good use of the long outdoor table. It was extremely peaceful being outside during the day and the location was perfect for bird-watching. Our only "complaints" would be that the stairgates they had on the stairs were not easy to use and there was no shade in the garden in the evening. We're already planning our stay for next year :)
