Booked 1 time today
Nestling in the heart of the beautiful Kentish Weald-the Garden of England, the Star and Eagle Hotel is located in the village of Goudhurst. Standing over 400ft above sea level, there are outstanding views of the surrounding orchards and hop gardens for which the area is renowned. Dating back to the 14th century, the Star and Eagle has played a significant role in the local history, and was once reputed to have been an ancient monastery. Relics of the vaulted stonework of the period are still visible in some parts of the building. During the 18th century the Inn became the headquarters of the "Hawkhurst Gang", who robbed and terrorised the surrounding district, and planned smuggling raids. Today, behind its attractive timbered gables, the Star and Eagle offers all the comfort and facilities of a 20th century hotel with the charm and atmosphere of a bygone era. Open throughout the year, the Star and Eagle is less than three miles off the main A21 road with easy access.

    Reassuringly good as usual. The smoked salmon starter melted in my mouth. My duck curry was good but I didn’t enjoy it as much as a prawn curry I’ve had there in the past. Always lovely ambience and wonderful service.

    Wow! We went to The Poet for the first time last night to celebrate a significant birthday and it was fantastic. From the moment we entered the building we were made to feel very special. The food was amazing and the staff very friendly and attentive. We enjoyed every bit of the evening. I would highly recommend The Poet to anyone wanting to experience top quality restaurant food and wine.

    Outstanding experience. Visited Sunday between Xmas and New Year, excellent food, perfectly served. Charming service, genuinely friendly and kind from the lady with the ponytail and boots. Bit pricey but fair for the quality. Tables are not crowded and nice to have the choice of the vibrant bar area or the calmer dining rooms. Hoping for a dry sherry option next time and would love more choice of real ales on draught, but after all, one good one is enough! We will be back!

    We arrived for Sunday lunch early and the venue was very quiet. We were seated and served in a good time. The menu had great choices and wasn't too overwhelming. The food was fantastic, you couldn't fault it. One improvement would be ro turn heating on in the toilets - it was freezing in there!! All in all, a fabulous place with great atmosphere, staff and food!
