Discover the beauty of the Isle of Sheppey in Kent during a stay at the comfortable Kingshill Farmhouse Hotel

A wild paradise on the doorstep of London: Experience the stunning beauty of Kent's Isle of Sheppey on a stay at a cozy farmhouse hotel (with Kentinental breakfast) Sarah Hartley checks into Kingshill Farmhouse in Elmley Nature Preserve go birdwatching, she reveals READ MORE: Inside the Florida hotel known as the 'Birthplace of NASCAR'

As far as the eye can see, the blue sky stretches to the horizon. Below, flat farmland stumbles over salt marshes: such breathtaking beauty evokes life before civilization.

Yet the nature reserve of Elmley, which occupies 3,300 acres, is only 40 miles from London. Family owned, it is run with absolute dedication to preserving the site's ecology while attracting visitors with wildlife, photography opportunities and 4x4 tours.

The England Coast Path passes through Elmley, attracting walkers and young families. You know it's a serious reservation when armies of twitchers with cameras gather along the single-lane road, grab a coffee at the Cowshed Cafe, and head for one of four bird skins. p>

However, you won't feel busy as you traverse windswept trails for miles.

Kingshill Farmhouse, now a cozy retreat to sleep 16. With wooden floors and fireplaces throughout, the impactful décor blends modern rustic with quirky art. A standout piece is the yellow bedroom (no less than ten years old) where the walls have a splash of juicy color, and a sliding barn door behind the super king bed reveals a huge soaking tub.
