Known as the “Garden of England,” Kent is a gem of a county offering a picturesque coastline, stunning countryside and a wealth of historic country estates and castles.With its milder climate compared to other counties in the UK, it invites visitors to enjoy scenic strolls along the beach, walks along the coast with their furry friend or a pub meal with the whole family.

Scenic coastal towns, like Whitstable and Margate, offer the above and so much more. History fanatics will love spending in Kent, with stunning landmarks like Canterbury Cathedral, a UNESCO World Heritage site with roots dating back to 597 AD, and Dover Castle, often called the “Key to England” for its strategic importance, this base also played a key role in World War Two.

Head along to Dungeness, this small little hamlet, close to the town of Lydd in Romney Marsh is technically Britain’s only desert, this large shingle landscape offers stunning views around the coast, on a good day you can see the stunning white cliffs of Dover standing tall.

For something for the whole family, why not take a ride on the Romney, Hythe & Dymchurch Railway, this railway has one-third full-size steam & diesel locomotives that head along 13½ miles of track from Hythe to Dungeness. Known as “Kent’s Mainline in Miniature” this is a must when looking at what to do in Kent.
