Surrounded by parkland, yet just 17 miles by road from the City of London, Thistle Brands Hatch overlooks the world-famous race circuit. The perfect base for out-of-town business events, a weekend escape, or exploring the Garden of England.
If you were asked to name Britain’s top places for weekend breaks, Dartford probably wouldn’t be first on your list. Unless, of course, you’re a motor-racing fan. Because on the doorstep is Brands Hatch, spiritual home to British petrol-heads since the glory days of Clark, Cooper, Brabham and Hill.
Surrounded by 500 acres of parkland in the glorious Kent countryside, you’d never guess that Thistle Brands Hatch is just 17 miles by road from the City of London. Close to the M25 and M20, it’s also within easy reach of Heathrow and Gatwick airports, the Channel Tunnel and the new Eurostar terminal at Ebbsfleet.
We have 121 bedrooms, including Executive rooms, and purpose-built conference facilities with 15 meeting rooms, the largest seating 270 people theatre style.
We also have 180 free on-site parking spaces. And with our Otium Health & Leisure Club, it’s perfect for a weekend break, or as a base from which to explore the Garden of England, as well as out-of-town business events.
