Once an 18th-century coaching inn, this peaceful hotel is a short walk from Sevenoaks town centre and offers free parking and excellent access to central London and Gatwick Airport. The Royal Oak is just minutes from the M25 and M23 motorways and just a few minutes’ walk from Sevenoaks railway station (trains run to London in just 32 minutes). There are also regular trains to Ashford International railway station, for Eurostar connections. The Royal Oak a rich history.
