Former stables have been meticulously transformed into a veritable retreat, complete with a kitchen, laundry room, cinema room, poolside bathroom complete with walk in shower and a studio style bedroom with a kitchen and en-suite bathroom.

The outdoor dining room and entertaining space, complete with a fireplace and barbeque kitchen, provide an inviting setting for al fresco gatherings and soirées amidst the serene natural woodland surroundings. A walled private garden, with a lush lawn and rose garden, offers a secluded sanctuary for moments of tranquillity. Convenient features such as electric security gates, integrated smart house system with CCTV and fire alarms, ample parking space for numerous vehicles, ensure both security and convenience, while a circular driveway in front of the principal house further enhances the property's grandeur and accessibility.

The beach at St. Margaret's Bay, just a three-minute drive from Oxney Court, is famous for being the closest point to France and is consequently where most Channel swimmers begin their marathon 21-mile swim.

Communications links are excellent with the nearby A2 providing access to the M2 and the A20 at Dover links to the M20. Martin Mill railway station is on the same line as the HS1 high-speed service to London St Pancras, also just a short drive away from the estate grounds.
