The location is ideal with uninterrupted views across the clifftops and the sea and only a three minute walk to Palm Bay beach. At the same time we can walk into Northdown Road where you will find Tescos and the wonderful International shop for unusual ingredients. It is not far to the centre of Margate with its famous Main Sands, Dreamland Amusement Park and the Turner Contemporary art gallery, while the fascinating Old Town offers interesting bars and restaurants and quirky individual shops. There are also hotels in the town while for sporting enthusiasts there is a well-supported football club, a cricket and a popular tennis club and golfing aficionados can enjoy their game at the North Foreland or Birching and Westgate golf clubs. A little further afield is the Westwood Cross Shopping Centre and leisure complex with its high street stores, restaurants, Vue cinema and casino. The main road offers easy access to the Thanet Way for London and Canterbury, while trains from Margate station can whisk you to St Pancras on the fast train in under an hour and a half. With regard to education there are a variety of good primary schools in the vicinity, while secondary education is available in Margate and Westgate with grammar and private schools in Broadstairs and Ramsgate. Note: The Art Deco movement was also called ‘style modern.’ This decorative arts and architecture style originated in the 1920s and became particularly popular in the 1930s in Western Europe and the United States. Its name was derived from the ‘Exposition Internationale des Arts Decoratifs et Industriels Modernes held in Paris in 1925 when the style was first exhibited and the intention was to create a sleek and anti-traditional elegance that symbolised wealth and sophistication.
