The house is very conveniently located as we are easily accessible to the M20/M25 and A26/A21 but at the same time we are not far from the countryside and the river for walks with the dog. We are equally close to the historic Tonbridge town centre with its Norman castle built in the 13th century on the banks of the River Medway. This adjoins Tonbridge Park with its swimming pool, tennis courts, miniature railway, putting green and children’s play area as well as pitches for football, baseball and cricket. There is a mainline station that is a junction for two railway lines so it is easy to take a train to places in Sussex, Kent and London where trains to London Bridge take about half an hour or 42 minutes to Charing Cross while the house sits centrally between two bus routes which go to schools in Tunbridge Wells, Sevenoaks and Hadlow as well as Tonbridge so children can safely go to school independently. The vibrant town includes a plethora of independent shops, hair and beauty salons together with numerous bars, restaurants and cafes plus retail outlets on the outskirts of the town. There are excellent educational facilities with a number of primary schools, several Outstanding grammar schools with specialist status including performing arts, maths and ICT, music and sports. Tonbridge Angels (a team in the national league south) have their football stadium a 10 minute walk away at Longmead Stadium so it's easy to spend a Saturday/Sunday afternoons watching matches as a family. Junior cricket and football teams train nearby at Longmead Stadium and is a great way for children to participate in sporting activities locally . There is also the North Kent College of further education and a small University of Kent campus as well as the famous independent Tonbridge School founded in 1553. This provides a leisure club with extremely good facilities available to external club members including a swimming pool, gymnasium, athletics track and tennis courts while the town itself has golf, football, rugby, tennis, bowls and cricket clubs. Golfing aficionados can practice their game at the Tonbridge Golf Centre and play at the nearby Poult Wood golf club, horsey enthusiasts can enjoy their sport at the Riding Farm Equestrian Centre and there is boating and angling on the River Medway and surrounding lakes.
