Location
Brenchley village is one of the most sought after and picturesque villages in this part of Kent with many fine examples of buildings which are of architectural interest. Windmill Hill rises up from the village centre and from the very top of the hill are rural views for miles around. Within Brenchley is a post office/general store, butchers, GP surgery, dentist, public house, All Saints parish church and a popular primary school. The nearby town of Paddock Wood is less than three miles and offers an excellent range of shops including Waitrose, Tesco, Barsleys department store, four banks, a post office, chemist, medical centre, library and well regarded schools for all age groups.
