Filled with creativity and colour, Hythe, Folkestone and Sandgate are the artistic pilgrimage of the Kent coast. With a direct train from St Pancras in under an hour, Sandgate is a perfectly quaint seaside town filled with cobbled streets and independent galleries, and of course, the perfect sea views.
Sandgate is a historic coastal village near Folkestone, once a key defensive point along England’s south coast and later a fashionable Victorian seaside retreat. With links to smuggling, military history and Martello towers, it retains its character through elegant seafront architecture, independent shops and sweeping Channel views.
