The south approach is a steep descent down a narrow track to a farm gate (make sure you close behind you). This shallow valley, fields on either side enclosed by woods higher up, feels like miles from anywhere. The road continues along Covet lane to the north. So peaceful.

Ethelburga, daughter of King Ethelbert and Queen Bertha of Kent, married Edwin, King of Northumbria in 625. By her influence he was converted and baptised at the place where York Minster now stands. But he was killed in battle against “the heathen” in 633, and Queen Ethelburga fled for safety to Kent. Her brother, now King Eadbald, gave her a royal property in Lyminge. Queen Ethelburga founded here a double minster or convent for men and women, becoming the first Abbess. When Ethelburga died in 647, she was regarded as a Saint and her remains were placed in the northern porticus of her church, which made the place a pilgrimage shrine.

Excellent cafe with great locally sourced food. Open 08:30 to 15:00, closed Sunday and Mondays. Good bike stop on busy cycle route. Limited outdoor seating. Recommend bacon sarnies, cakes and coffee.
