Parties in Pollhill: homes, halls and local tips
Pollhill is about 6 miles east of Maidstone, in Kent. People in Pollhill book us for all sorts of reasons, but the plan is always the same: a level spot for the van, a time to eat and food fried to order. We take the van to all 922 towns and villages across Kent, from the larger towns to small villages. Our bookings stretch from Pollhill to Canterbury (about 18 miles away).
Within reach of Pollhill are historic houses such as Leeds Castle (1.6 miles north-west) and Stoneacre (3.8 miles west).
