We originally chose this house because of its location, the views and access to good schools. We are on a bus route so is convenient for kids to go to school and have a level of independence but, because the house is high and set well back from the road, it is very quiet. We can easily walk into the centre of the charming Cinque Port seaside town of Hythe with its independent shops, bars, restaurants and pavement cafes as well as Waitrose and other supermarkets. There is also the historic and picturesque Military Canal where you can walk the dog along the towpath and the excellent Hotel Imperial with its golf course and leisure centre. The town also has cricket, squash, tennis and sailing clubs and the Henry Cotton designed Sene Valley golf course. There are good primary schools in Hythe and excellent grammar schools in Folkestone, Dover and Canterbury with some rated Outstanding by Ofsted and top class private schools in Ashford, Canterbury and Dover. Transport links are very good with Sandling station nearby and it is less than an hour to London on the high speed train from Folkestone West or about 36 minutes if you drive to Ashford International and we are only a short drive to the M20 for London or the Channel Tunnel if you want a trip to the Continent. At the other end of our road you will find the archetypal Kentish village of Saltwood. It is centred around the village green with a church on one side and a traditional village pub opposite. Not to mention an 11th century castle and some stunning nearby gardens – both sometimes open to the public. The village includes a convenience store, a cricket club and a village hall providing a number of activities as well as a Michelin Star restaurant. There is also Brockhill Park where you can also take the dog for delightful walks as well as the specialist Brockhill Performing Arts College.
