Hello all,

I would like to visit England in April (and hopefully in September with a friend, too) and I need some help

how do I get from London (I`ll arrive by bus from Germany) to Chiddingstone.

My first idea was to travel by train to Cowden. 

If anyone has a better idea, please post.

Thank in advance

Simone

Hi Simone! I am not sure if I've welcomed you to the site yet! 

I am afraid I can't help you with your question, but there are many here who can and no doubt will as soon as they have a chance.Smile

Hi Simone and welcome. Chiddington Castle recommends Charing Cross station to Hildenborough ( just before Tonbridge) then presumably taxi.

Hallo Paul, thank you very much for your posting.

I`ll check this. Just one question.Hildenborough is a railway stop?

I want to stay at Hoath House, it`s located in Chiddingstone Hoath. The web site of Hoath House says, the best way would be from London to Cowden station.

Hooh, I need a good map to look at.

Thank you again and have a nice evening.

In which case you may well be right Simone as there are a few stations encircling the area, approaching Chiddingstone from different directions.
