Our specialist pathway offers an open acute admissions service (Knole Ward), and a pre-discharge wing (Littleoaks) to allow for a smooth transition for patients returning home to their families.

The hospital is situated in the beautiful countryside of the Kent Weald, near Sevenoaks. Its location, in over an acre of its own grounds, helps the hospital provide a calm and therapeutic environment.
Our multi-disciplinary teams are led by a consultant psychiatrist and include psychologists, social workers, occupational therapists and specialist mental health nurses, all of whom are fully trained and accredited. We incorporate many proven models of treatment, as well as services aimed at helping individuals cope with particular circumstances, such as relationship and family therapy.
The Knole Development Centre is located in the beautiful rural setting of Cygnet Hospital Godden Green in the Kent Weald.
