FOLKESTONE, KENT
the perfect base
for coastal living
The cobbled streets of the Creative Quarter and the carefully restored Folkestone Harbour are the beating hearts of the town, home to a wide range of independent shops, galleries, restaurants and cafes. The Leas and the ‘West End’ bring a touch of Edwardian glamour to life in Folkestone whilst the Lower Leas Country Park and the Warrens ensure that nature is just a stroll away.
With excellent transport links to both the capital and the continent, Folkestone is the perfect base for coastal living.
