The Black Horse Inn is a relaxed and unpretentious, rural, family run Inn set in the Kentish countryside. Its three main offerings: food, drink and bed and breakfast rooms make it a unique and quite frankly stunning bed and breakfast.
In addition to the bed and breakfast, the restaurant and bar are renowned throughout Kent for providing an excellent range of dishes, prepared from fresh, local produce by a brigade of talented chefs.

If someone said take me to a proper English Pub I would take them here! Lovely old pub atmosphere with dried hops hanging from the ceiling and a log fire. Friendly staff, excellent food/ales and nice simple accommodation in the adjacent buildings. Also some good walking around with fantastic views from the North downs
Once seated, the service was great, however an acknowledgement of some sort, whilst waiting at the bar, would enhance the overall experience. Surprised, after naming 2 local butchers, that a French pork chop was served, which was tough and lacked flavour, the sprouts appeared all but raw, the croquettes were lovely. The biggest surprise, was the sign on the dog bin outside, asking for just customers waste, can't think why, that would be so important. The hops could do with changing.
Had a meal with friends and the staff were so warm, welcoming and efficient, nothing was too much trouble. The bar and restaurant area where we sat and ate was intimate, warm and relaxed. The food was good, and we all enjoyed our meals and the relaxed atmosphere. Will definitely return as it's a really special place.
We stayed one night here on the way from Kent to the West since it's close (5 minutes) to the M20. The 20 or so chalets are spread out from the main pub building but there is lots of parking close to each chalet. The room was warm, good beds, tv, shower, there is even an umbrella in the room (which had to use!). We had a drink in the pub, it's a super authentic English pub, locals sitting at the bar, friendly place, several local ales. Food looked very good (we only had ice cream), probably a good idea to book a table in the restaurant at busy times. Breakfast was a very nice full English served by the owner who had many stories to tell. Overall if you are looking for good value and something memorable from a visit to Kent/England then this place is perfect.
Stayed here whilst working away on more than one occasion. The food is fantastic, beer also. Rooms clean and well equipped. Plenty of parking ideal for big vans. Very quiet area too. The staff are very attentive. Beware though, the food is a bit pricey! On one occasion, we got charged £18 (2 of us!) for broccoli and cabbage as a side x2.
