Location
Eadhelm Court is perfectly located in the heart of Edenbridge, the Doctors Surgery, Dentist and Leisure Centre are situated just across the road and the town centre and train station is a short stroll.

Edenbridge is a traditional small market town set in the stunningly beautiful Eden Valley countryside on the Kent/Surrey boarder by the River Medway and close to the River Eden tributary from which its name is derived.

Edenbridge benefits from two mainline train stations with good links to central London. The M25 is a short drive and Gatwick airport can be reached in 25 minutes. Edenbridge offers residents a relaxed and peaceful way of life, and with Brighton being less than an hour away its perfect for beach lovers and anyone looking to enjoy a more diverse cultural experience.

Edenbridge has a great range of shops, restaurants and supermarkets, as well as a host of traditional town and country pubs which are dotted in and around the town and local villages. A market is also held every Thursday in the town in Market Yard, where you can purchase a wide selection of locally grown produce from this English garden of Eden.
