For a spot of retail therapy, visit McArthurGlen designer outlet which is also only a 10-minute drive.

Port Lympne Wildlife Park will transport you to the plains of Africa and Asia, and you can enjoy a safari experience and see Kent’s only giraffes! Canterbury with its magnificent cathedral and boat trips on the River Stour is also a great day out.

Visit Dover Castle and the wartime tunnels, or for a sandy beach head to St Mary’s Bay. Experience the unique vast expanse of shingle beach, technically referred to as a desert, at Dungeness and see the film director Derek Jarman’s ’Prospect Cottage’ with its driftwood garden. For something different, take the Romney Hythe and Dymchurch Light Railway which runs from Hythe to Dungeness. Beach 11½ miles. Shop, pub and restaurant 1 mile.
