Vacation Home Taylour House
69 High Street, Edenbridge, TN8 5AL, United Kingdom – Great location - show map
Our hosts were excellent in providing detailed information for our stay. Loved the history of the house, the character and the location. It's a five-ten minute walk to Edenbridge Town station, which gets you into London within 40 minutes. The leisure centre is a ten minute walk away, and a nice river walk five minutes away. Plenty of choice for supermarkets, and a couple of good pubs and coffee shops.

We recently got into letting our house to travelers, because we feel its simply stunning and one should share beautiful things with other people. Come and visit a house full of history. A stunning and quirky - meaning a little wonky in places - medieval timber framed home, originally build in 1468 for Sir Wyllyam Taylor, then Sheriff of London (later Lord Mayor of London). It is said the house had the proportions and ceiling heights (12 foot) of a 'fine London house'. The building also has Jacobean wall paintings which were re-discovered in the 1960s. For a long time it was used as an inn called 'The Griffin' until it became an antiques furniture sales room. The settings are certainly right for that. However recently it turned back to be a home with a bit of 'character'!
Edenbridge has all amenities needed - supermarkets, pubs, banks, a park and even two railway stations going into London in less than an hour or all across Kent and Surrey. Gatwick Airport is easily accessible by rail. Attractions nearby are Hever Castle, Winston Churchills home Chartwell House, Chiddingstone National Trust village and castle, Penshurst Place, Royal Tunbridge Wells, Lingfield Park Racecourse, Knole Park in Sevenoaks and there are many others. There are nice country walks all around the area and fishing in the local river Eden. Our favourite pub is called 'Queens Arms' on the main road going south towards Cowden.
