Situation
Etchinghill is a village near the towns of Folkestone and Hythe and is part of the Shepway district. It lies near the North Downs, offering picturesque views and beautiful undulating countryside. Like many villages in Kent, Etchinghill retains a rural charm with its green fields, farms, and country lanes. It provides a peaceful atmosphere away from the hustle and bustle of larger towns and cities. One notable feature of Etchinghill is the presence of the popular Etchinghill Golf Club, with a driving range, three courses and bar/restaurant and shop. While primarily rural, Etchinghill benefits from good transport links. It's close to major roads such as the M20, providing convenient access to nearby towns like Folkestone, Ashford, and Canterbury. Additionally, Folkestone West railway station is within easy reach, as is Sandling Station, offering connections to London and other destinations.
