Discover the joys of the Weald of Kent
The Weald of Kent truly typifies the Garden of England with glorious rolling countryside, amongst which nestle pretty villages and market towns offering the perfect blend of relaxed Kentish living, with excellent transport links, especially to London and Europe via Gatwick airport and Eurostar trains.
For families, the Weald of Kent is overflowing with riches to enhance life. Magical castles, secret forests, and wonderful beaches are all on your doorstep. There are many top schools to choose from both state and independent, with the added benefit of grammar schools too (see Links page for further information).
If you are hoping to improve your work/life balance then the Weald of Kent is the place for you.
From most mainline train stations the journey time to London is an hour or less and the road links ensure that the motorway network is easily accessible.
During your spare time you will be spoilt for choice with the many attractions to explore. Perhaps unwinding whilst walking through lavender fields, or sampling the produce of your local vineyard or even finding yourself within the walls of a magnificent historic house will fill your time.
The array of farmers´ markets and farm shops enable you to buy local produce directly from the grower, ranging from organic meat to freshly cut asparagus and sun kissed strawberries. If you don’t feel like cooking then all types of restaurant/cafe are represented offering you hospitality and delicious food/drink in abundance. Shopping wise, there is an unenviable choice of both small boutique shops and the familiar high street stores, including Fenwick Department Store in Tunbridge Wells and several Waitrose supermarkets.
For all the reasons highlighted above, house prices within the Weald of Kent have shown a sustained growth, ensuring an excellent return on your investment. However, once you have moved to the Weald of Kent, you will never want to leave.
