Whilst we gather up all of the amazing photos from our Family Fun Day and get ready to say a huge thank you to everyone, we wanted to share some exciting news about another event we have coming up!

After the first one was such a success, we’ve organised our 2nd Golf Day at London Beach in Tenterden!

For just £45 you can enjoy a bacon roll and a hot drink before heading out for 18 holes on London Beach’s brilliant course!

If the food and golf hadn’t quite convinced you, hopefully the fact that all of the money spent comes back to our amazing Football Club will! Through the London Beach Scheme, we get 100% of the money raised given back to the club!

Whether you’re an avid golfer or up for trying something new, please get in touch to book your place now!

UP THE DENS!!! 🔵⚪️🔵

🍩✨The excitement just keeps rolling in… and this time it’s SWEET!✨🍩

🍩 DOUGHNUTS ARE COMING TO BIDDENDEN ON SATURDAYS! 🍩

Starting this Saturday, we’re launching our very own doughnut takeaway bakery.🎉

Think freshly made, perfectly fluffy, filled-to-the-brim doughnuts in a whole range of delicious flavours.

Krispy krème who? 😏

But be quick…
⏰ When they’re gone, they’re gone!

And don’t worry… if there are any left (which we highly doubt 👀), they definitely won’t go to waste!

📍 Starting TOMORROW (Saturday) and every Saturday from now on. You will be able to pre-order like you do with our sour dough loaves. 🍞

BIG NEWS for The Bakehouse & Biddenden! 🌟

Our Emma is the true heart of our village community — and we’re so excited to share that she’s stepping into a brand new role as Chair of Biddenden Tractorfest from 2026 🚜

Emma, Caroline and Jane have built The Bakehouse into more than just a café — it’s a hub for connection, support, and community spirit. From organising litter picks to supporting local schools and small businesses, they’ve always been passionate about giving back.🫶

Having supported Tractorfest for years, Emma is now taking the reins to help continue its incredible growth and success. With such strong local roots and genuine love for the village, she’s perfectly placed to carry this fantastic event forward.🚜

A huge thank you to Vikki Eames for her amazing work as Chair 👏— and best of luck to Emma in her new role (not that she’ll need it!) 💚

Big up to The Bakehouse for organising another litter pick in Biddenden.

It was a record haul of rubbish this year - see their fantastic post.

Appart from the usual tedious mix of cider cans, vapes and vodka bottles which make up the majority of the rubbish, we also found four 'magnetic' L Plates, which suggests that they are not as magnetic as they claim.

I was sorry to miss the litter pick in Rolvenden the dat before, but I was pleased to hear that fully 50 volunteers (!) swept through the village with great effect.
