insideKENT DISCOVERS A TRADITIONAL FAMILY
FRIENDLY SUNDAY LUNCH AT
FRASERS,
EGERTON
IN THE HEART OF RURAL KENTISH COUNTRYSIDE, THROUGH WINDING COUNTRY LANES,
AND BEAUTIFUL COUNTRYSIDE VIEWS, SOMEWHERE BETWEEN ASHFORD AND MAIDSTONE,
LIES THE TINY ENCLAVE OF EGERTON, AND THE SOME, 300 ACRE, COLDHARBOUR FARM
HOME OF FRASERS. BY SAMANTHA READY
With genuine passion and relentless drive, namesake wife and husband team
Lisa-Jane and Adam Fraser, demonstrate how, seemingly effortlessly, a unique
working farm can become a fine dining restaurant with rooms concept. An award
winning concept in fact; offering intricate 2AA Rosette 7 course taster menus
within the contemporary yet traditional barn-converted vaulted ceiling restaurant,
a unique and secluded 5* wedding and events venue; complete with a beautiful
countryside marquee in the summer months; and bespoke contemporary and
secluded rooms with the added addition of a soon to open beautifully created
addition of the converted barn space which will offer an additional four country-

contemporary bedrooms, private dining space and corporate team working space,
all with panoramic countryside views and stunning copper, wood and natural
stone finishes.
But this was Sunday, and on Sundays Frasers not only offers its justifiably popular
afternoon teas (with some of the largest and tastiest homemade scones known
to man) but, and in my opinion, more importantly, their sharing Sunday Roasts
which on the first Sunday of the month includes the added side-dish of live music
from jazz to our own afternoon of acoustic movie soundtracks.
