What the Owner says:
We moved here in 2017 and thought it would be our ‘forever' family home so we installed a new kitchen and bathrooms but circumstances have changed. Saltwood is the archetypal Kentish village centred around the village green with a church on one side and a pleasant pub opposite. It includes a convenience store, a cricket club and a village hall providing a number of activities as well as a Michelin Star restaurant. There is Brockhill Park, Brockhill Performing Arts College and a primary school rated Good by Ofsted.
