Book a TableA beautiful barn weddings and events venue, overlooking the Swale estuary.
Barn Wedding VenueEleven individually-styled, bed & breakfast rooms in our hideaway corner of Kent.
Overnight StaysWe call Harty ‘home’. Not only is it where you’ll find The Ferry House, but the Burden family has farmed the land for years, cultivating the crops, cattle and landscape. Hidden-away on the Isle of Sheppey in Kent, yet just 60 minutes from London, you’ll find us set between two wetland bird reserves, the estuary and rolling countryside. So whether you’re seeking out restaurants in Kent that are truly unique, a back-to-nature country escape or a beautiful barn wedding venue, you’ve come to the right place.
“The winner is Kent to its core, local everything from cider to the cows grazing in the surrounding land, served with top end personal service by staff whose knowledge of the local area was as if they were born and raised there. “Quite simply the best all round experience shouting Kent”
The building itself is stunning, with beautiful views of the estuary and the nearby town of Conyer. The service is truly 5-star, with friendly and professional staff. The on-site restaurant serves exquisite food, paired with a great selection of beers, wines, and spirits.
We had an amazing New Year’s celebration, complete with a spectacular fireworks display and fantastic music.
We went for dinner and the pub itself is beautiful. The menu had a nice range of options. The food was delicious. You could tell high quality ingredients were used. The server was attentive and the atmosphere was lovely. It isn’t cheap but worth spending that bit extra.
We loved our stay at the Ferry House. There was a wedding there while we stayed but it didn't spoil it for us. The hotel is lovely we always managed to get a seat right by the open fire and the staff were really friendly. We liked that it was really remote so saw no one around on our walks and even managed to see an owl just sitting on the tree. The breakfast was lovely on both mornings.
