The Bowl Inn is in Charing, Ashford, at Egg Hill Road, and the building is a former farmhouse dating from 1512. The stay is better understood as a pub-with-rooms rather than a large hotel, with the bar and restaurant forming a central part of the building. The setting also includes gardens and a heated sun terrace, so the property has outdoor space as well as the indoor pub areas.

Rooms at The Bowl Inn have en suite bathrooms, free Wi-Fi, TVs, and tea and coffee-making facilities. Room details vary: some rooms have beamed ceilings, one room has a four-poster bed, and a ground-floor garden room has direct access to a private garden. Rooms also have countryside views, which gives the accommodation a more rural feel than a town-centre hotel.

The stay works well for travelers who want food and drink in the same building. Breakfast is available in the bar, and the property also has a restaurant and bar with a classic pub menu. Inside, the pub includes a log fireplace and a hexagonal rotating pool table, adding more character than a standard overnight stop.

Dogs carry a £10 charge, so guests bringing a dog should factor that specific extra cost into the stay.
