The Space x

Elmley is a 3,300 acre family estate and national nature reserve on an island off Kent, just 40 miles from London. 

A vast wilderness. The spectacular landscape, soul stirring skies and breath-taking wildlife provide a truly inspirational escape.

We provide an extraordinary setting for off-sites, weddings, retreats and short breaks or simply to immerse yourself in nature. 

We have a range of spaces to use: 

Kingshill Barn - an amazing rustic cathedral like space with amazing views and large outdoor area for events, parties, weddings, and meetings.

Kingshill farmhouse is a wonderfully restored Georgian house in a stunning setting sleeping 12 in six bedrooms with en-suites.

Elmley Cottage is a modern, open plan scandi-haus sleeping 10 with panoramic views of the Reserve.

We also offer six cabin and shepherds huts each sleep two with kingsize beds, en-suites, fire pits and stunning views. 

The Reserve - 3000 acres of wetland wilderness, flower rich meadows and abundant wildlife.
