About The Grove Ferry Inn hotel

Set amid Stodmarsh Reserve, this hotel is centrally located next to a picnic site and a nature reserve, providing an excellent base for walkers, fishers and cyclists.

Situated close to the cathedral city of Canterbury and the nearby coastal towns, the property is easily accessible from the ports and from the Channel Tunnel. You can visit many interesting places and attractions in the surrounding area.

The inn has 6 tastefully furnished, spacious bedrooms, including a family room. Originally a coaching house dating back to 1831, the inn took its name from a hand-drawn ferry which took people across the River Stour.
