and explore. There are frequent buses to the historic city centre, with its plethora of shops, tourists, buskers, museums, river cruises and many other attractions.
The quaint, fashionable
port of Whitstable is just 10 minutes drive away, with its friendly local shops, vibrant harbour, fresh fish market, good sea food restaurants and fine
coastal walks. Slightly further afield
is the cinque-port of Faversham with old sailing barges, ex-gunpowder works, the oldest brewery in England and many other delights. A little further are Broadstairs and the port of Sandwich, host of the 2011 Open Golf Championship.
Central London is 60
miles away via the M2 and 56 minutes by rail.
Stratford International (the Olympics station) is 49 minutes by
rail. Day trips to France are
