The New Inn, Etchinghill

Tucked away in the ancient leafy village of Etchinghill (the Saxon name for 'the hill with the babbling brook'), The New Inn is a cosy, timber-framed, pub & restaurant dating back to the 17th century. These days the inn has a fine reputation for superb cuisine, serving gourmet food, real ale, bar snacks, coffees and traditional pub grub.

Featuring a lovely beer garden for the summer months, The New Inn is within putting-distance of Pentland golf club, a few minutes from the Channel Tunnel terminal and Folkestone Rugby Club, a 10-minute drive from Ashford International rail terminal, and 20-minutes from the Dover ferry ports.

With dedicated staff and attentive service, we strive to make this corner of Kent feel like a home-from-home. The atmosphere is welcoming, the cuisine mouth-watering, and the traditional ale thirst-quenching. The two large fireplaces make for a relaxing dinner on a chilly evening.
