Whitstable, which in the early 19th century, played an important role for travellers who came by coach from Canterbury to embark upon their sea journey to London. Then in 1830, the world's first passenger train took over this route: you can see its locomotive (Robert Stephenson's "Invicta") in Canterbury.
In the last century Whitstable has prospered as a seaside resort. It still has rows of black and white weather boarded fishermen's cottages which give it an olde world charm and character. Approximately 15 minutes Eastward lies the Victorian town of Herne Bay and The Twin Norman Towers of Reculver within the remains of a great Roman fort.
Canterbury has the most important Cathedral in the land and it sits in one of the most attractive corners of rural Kent and has been welcoming visitors for over 2000 years. St Augustine’s Abbey in Canterbury (1597) was the first official burial site for many English Kings and Archbishops, long before the Cathedral was even built.
The city is within easy reach by road or rail. With part of the city designated by UNESCO as a World Heritage site; Canterbury today is a delightful mixture of architecture, history, arts and culture, museums of every description, visitor attractions and good quality restaurants and pubs. The cobbled streets and modern department stores make Canterbury a must for shoppers and antique lovers alike.
North of us just six miles is the little known town of Faversham home of Kents oldest brewery Shepherd Neame which is open to visitors. With street after street of medieval houses and its waterway out into the Swale marshes which are home to many rare and beautiful birds.
London being only 50 miles away is easily reached by train or car.
