The Royal Oak

The Royal Oak, Brookland is located on the beautiful Romney Marshes. This wonderful village inn is steeped in history and for well over 270 years it has afforded shelter and sustenance to locals, travellers passing through and to those visiting the area. Today it continues to offer as warm a welcome to visitors as ever in its long history. The location of The Royal Oak is attractive to those who seek a quiet spot, away from the hustle and bustle of modern day life, or for those keen to explore the area. The inn, although ancient, has recently been sympathetically renovated and re-furnished. Here in a corner of Kent is a peaceful old village, enveloped in quietude and restfulness, tucked away in the middle of the beautiful and mysterious Romney Marsh, with its sleepy winding lanes, one of the few remaining unspoilt areas of south east England. Surrounding the village is open farmland offering an atmosphere of rare tranquility. Rich meadowland dotted with flocks of sheep, for which Romney Marsh is synonymous, is interspersed with remote lying arable farms.
