SITUATION

In a prime location, situated directly on the unspoilt and pedestrianised seafront of this ancient Cinque Ports Town, with its long stretches of shingle beaches and on a level approach to the Royal Military Canal. Beyond this is the bustling High Street which enjoys a variety of independent shops, boutiques, cafes, bars and restaurants. In addition, the town is well served by 4 supermarkets (including Waitrose). There is also a selection of sports and leisure facilities in the vicinity including tennis, bowls, cricket, squash and sailing clubs as well as water sports facilities. The larger town of Folkestone is around 5 miles and the Cathedral City of Canterbury is approximately 18 miles distant.

The area is fortunate in having particularly good communications with a mainline railway station in Saltwood (Sandling - 3 miles) and access to the M20 (Junction 11 - 4 miles). The High Speed Link rail service to Stratford and St Pancras is available from Folkestone West (4 miles) and Ashford International (10 miles), with journey times of 53 and 37 minutes respectively. Eurostar trains to Paris and Brussels also depart from the latter.

The Channel Tunnel Terminal is only 4 miles away and the ferry port of Dover is 13 miles away. (All distances are approximate.)
