The Saltings is a striking barn conversion set in peaceful Harty on the Isle of Sheppey, where countryside calm meets stylish comfort. Sleeping 12+ guests in six ensuite bedrooms, it’s ideal for big family get-togethers, special celebrations or a few days of downtime with friends. Surrounded by open skies and marshland, it’s a place where you can truly unwind - yet it’s just an hour from London.
Inside, the space is light-filled and contemporary, with original beams, generous communal areas, and thoughtful touches throughout. Whether you’re cooking up a feast in the open-plan kitchen, gathering around the table for a long dinner, or relaxing in the garden with the sound of birdsong, The Saltings makes it easy to switch off and reconnect.
Step outside and you’re already on the Isle of Harty Trail - a scenic, mostly flat loop ideal for walkers, cyclists and even little legs. You’ll find miles of traffic-free exploring, two national nature reserves full of birds and wildlife, and quiet beaches nearby for paddling, picnicking and ice cream by the sea.
Fancy a pub lunch or special dinner? Just a short stroll away is the award-winning Ferry House - our family-run 2AA Rosette pub and restaurant, known for its warm welcome and homegrown produce.
Please note, The Ferry House will close for regular dining from April 2026, reopening on select dates for special events. Private dining for larger groups may be offered, subject to availability – please contact us for further details. In-cottage catering will still be available.
Dog friendly and family friendly, The Saltings has a fully-fenced, dog-safe garden and access to a dedicated dog exercise paddock, free to all guests. Travel cots and camp beds are available too, so everyone can be included - two-legged and four.
As part of the Mocketts Farm collection, The Saltings can also be booked with the other four cottages to sleep up to 53 guests across 23 bedrooms. Perfect for weddings, reunions, or large group stays where you want to be together but still enjoy your own space.
Available year-round with flexible rates for multi-night stays, last-minute breaks and midweek getaways - The Saltings is a special spot to slow down and make lasting memories.
