Press: A recent article in the Guardian lauds Tenterden (5 minutes away from Pump Cottage) as currently one of the most sought-after market towns in England, it being the unofficial capital of the burgeoning English Wine Industry with the Chapel Down Winery on the door step. On the 6th April 2018, Tom Dyckhoff in the 'Let's Move To Section' enthuses in the Guardian on line, "Centuries ago, Tenterden was a port, the estuarine tentacles of the sea creeping up the squelchy Rother valley with the tides from Rye to Small Hythe. These days the town is beached in the gentle hills and high hedges of Kent's High Weald - though you never know, climate change may in time resurrect its long-dead shipbuilding industry. For now, at least, there is not a whiff of ozone in the spring air. Instead, Tenterden is all budding hop trellises and grapevines: Much of the UK's booming wine industry is nearby - climate change again. It's a monied, country casuals kind of place, with a pretty townscape of verges, trees and a who's who of architectural styles, mostly ignored by coach parties thanks to its relative isolation off the beaten track - high on retirees (see below) and prep schools, low on thrills. Though I have been known to utter a yelp when the steam trains on the Kent & East Sussex Railway brake too abruptly".
