"PRETTY AS A PICTURE" Brabourne by whitecliff62

Brabourne Travel Guide: 11 reviews and 10 photos

VILLAGE BEAUTY

This is Brabourne, a most beautiful village tucked away in the south east corner of Kent. My main reason for making these small pages is to show what a fantastic old English village pub and restaurant they have, which you will see on my pages. Its only a tiny village and only a speck on the map, but its sure worth the effort to come here. The best time to visit is in the summer months where you can sitt in the village pub gardens looking out to the beauty of the Kent countryside while sipping warm British beer and decent food. So come on v.ters, if your ever in the south east of Kent then hunt down Brabourne and have a great sunday lunch at the 5 Bells%c*

Pros and Cons

Pros:OUTSTANDING NATURAL COUNTRYSIDE
Cons:NO PUBLIC TRANSPORT
In a nutshell:IF YOU LIKE THE OUTDOORS, IT GETS NO BETTER THAN THIS

That pub sounds great! Seems like a good place for a VT meet with good old Cliffie - maybe one day, how about it? ;-)

Brabourne sounds nice, except for lack of accommodations. So what do you do if you get really drunk at the Five Bells?

Blimey Old Riley Six tips on the same pub! The restaurant will move even further up market as the new owner is a highly renowned chef......

Sounds like a splendid little off the beaten track spot! Sometimes places that are a little hard to get to (no public transport) are quite delightful.
