It has an array of facilities and sights, in total there are three public houses, three National Trust properties, a church, Rochester & Cobham golf course, a quintessentially Victorian primary school and Cobham Hall for Girls. Jeskyns is a park near Cobham, a former farm and was reopened as a large open-space recreational area in 2007, with areas being developed as new wildlife habitats.
