Dungeness

Welcome

...to the breath-taking beauty, stunning shoreline and creative communities of this corner of Kent. There’s simply no other place like it, whether you choose to explore the eerie wilderness at Dungeness, take in the views from the Downs or stroll the cobbled streets of Folkestone's Creative Quarter.

You’ll find plenty to discover, whatever your interests and budget. Enjoy a great family day out riding the miniature trains on the Romney, Hythe and Dymchurch Railway or experience an African safari right here in Kent at the award-winning Port Lympne Reserve. Visit the fascinating collection of more than 1,000 skulls in the ossuary at St Leonard’s Church in Hythe or see the imposing Martello Towers constructed to defend our coast during the Napoleonic war.

You can stay in a cosy cottage, a four-star hotel or a holiday park with a full entertainment programme, and indulge in a Kentish cream tea, Ploughman’s lunch or gourmet meal at a top restaurant. And with great transport connections via road, rail or sea, getting here is easier than you think. There’s so much waiting for you, so what are you waiting for?
