Description
Situated in the West end of Folkestone, the town centre is within a short level walking distance and offers a good selection of shops and supermarkets. The Leas Cliff Hall attracts a good selection of bands and comedy and the Band Stand regularly hosts music and carnivals. The Old High Street has an eclectic range of shops and restaurants, such as the legendary Folkestone Wine Company, which has received glowing reviews in both the Guardian and the Telegraph. This leads in turn to the harbour area, which has had substantial investment in recent years. You will find the award-winning Rocksalt restaurant overlooking the Harbour, the sandy beach and refurbished old railway bridge across the marina, which leads to the Harbour Arm with its range of pop-up restaurants and bars, including a champagne bar in the old lighthouse. There is also an outside screen which regularly hosts films. The boardwalk across the beach leads to the coastal park which is beautifully planted and has an amazing wooden play area for children. Other attractions include the Quarterhouse Arts Centre - a key part of the town's literary and art festivals - and F51, a world-leading climbing and skateboarding venue. Folkestone Central railway station is within level walking distance and offers fast services to London St Pancras in just over fifty minutes. The M20 Motorway, Channel Tunnel Terminal and Port of Dover are also easily accessed by car. Folkestone also boasts a sports centre with various courts, pools, gym and even a dry ski slope. The historic city of Canterbury can be accessed in just over half an hour by car. The Cinque Port town of Hythe with its range of independent shops and the all-important Waitrose is approximately ten minutes by car.
