The Dirty Habit is nestled in the heart of the picturesque village of Hollingbourne. Dating to the 11th century, the inn once welcomed pilgrims travelling to Canterbury and today blends its historic features with contemporary comfort. Exposed beams, roaring fires, and welcoming interiors create an inviting atmosphere, while its location on the Pilgrims’ Way makes it a popular choice for walking holidays, business stopovers, and countryside escapes. Just a short drive from Leeds Castle and within easy reach of Maidstone and the M20, it is an excellent choice for anyone seeking comfortable accommodation in the North Downs.
