The Chequers Inn nestles in the award-winning village of Smarden.
One of the most picturesque and atmospheric of all Kent villages.
As a family run pub, we would love you to come and enjoy a delicious dining experience and a relaxing stay in their historic building and garden. Every corner is full of charm; from the warm, inviting dining areas and bar to the individually designed bedrooms. The mature garden overlooks the village church and offers a peaceful setting next to a large pond.​
