What an absolutely fantastic country pub. We dined (table of 5) and couldn't find fault with any of the food. The greedy badger (myself 🤣) even had two deserts as couldn't decide as they all sounded good. Really nice to see local produce on the menu and behind the bar. We will definitely return and highly recommend 👍👍🦡

Our Story

If you’re looking for a friendly independent pub restaurant in the picturesque Faversham area, then look no further. Local beers, wines & ciders and a choice from the constantly changing selection of unique homemade dishes from our blackboard come as standard in our family-run country pub.
Tucked away in an area of outstanding natural beauty between the historical towns of Maidstone, Ashford and Faversham, The Plough inhabits a unique space amongst Kent’s rolling hills and lush farmland. Our unspoilt surroundings in ‘The Garden of England’ create the perfect setting for enjoying the fresh, locally-sourced meals we serve here. Just come and see for yourself.
There’s plenty to see and do nearby, and we’re a great stop-off for walkers and cyclists alike. A short drive from Faversham is medieval Leeds Castle, the home of Catherine of Aragon in the sixteenth century, with parts dating back to the early 1100’s. We also enjoy stunning views out to Herne Bay, a popular Victorian seaside town known for its pier, pretty shingle beach and pastel-coloured huts along the seafront. Other local attractions are Farming World in Faversham for a day of family fun, and some of Kent’s leading vineyards for those who are young at heart.
Whether you’re looking for somewhere to enjoy a warm and lazy afternoon taking in the stunning views from our gardens or seeking the unbeatable cosiness of an open log fire in the winter, we look forward to welcoming you to The Plough Inn.

Just added to our beautiful pub are our equally beautiful bedrooms situated in a barn building in the back garden. The rooms which are split level with bedrooms and bathroom downstairs and lounge area upstairs, boast views across the countryside out to the Kent coast what better place to relax and unwind.
