Broome Park, English country house in Barham, England

The mansion house contains 22 individual suites distributed across three floors, with views extending over the Kent countryside and golf course grounds.

Built between 1635 and 1638 for Sir Basil Dixwell, the estate later became the residence of Lord Kitchener until his death at sea in 1916.

The architecture represents distinct Jacobean period elements, with formal gardens and a carriage approach that reflect 17th-century English estate design principles.

The property now functions as a hotel with 22 mansion suites and 14 woodland lodges, offering activities such as golf, tennis, and squash courts.

The estate features a golf course designed by Donald Steel in 1981, integrating modern recreational facilities within a Grade I listed historical property.
