Local Area

The house is located just 5 minutes walk from the historic town of Hythe in Kent featuring the Royal Military Canal and the south-east coast is a 15 minute walk. It's an area rich in history, with castles, very old churches, and scenic walks. Hythe is very close to the town of Folkestone with an artistic quarter and fishing harbour. Folkestone also benefits from high speed train links to links to London [52 mins] and the channel tunnel across to France.

About We have enjoyed some travel world wide and as more time becomes available at this time of life, we plan to enjoy further adventures. We enjoy meeting people and particularly like to experience the feel and atmosphere of a local community. Being independent is also important as we tend to avoid crowds and like exploring by ourselves. We are both professional, though operate in different fields. Luckily we don't have full-time work commitments and can be flexible when we take time off. In our spare time we enjoy walking, dining out, good wine, and cultural activities. We're not into sport hugely but enjoy watching a good rugby game. Some gentle sailing is also favoured!
