Sightseeing

From my house you can walk along the coastal path, along the foot of the cliffs all the way to the nature reserve at Samphire Hoe- you can see it in the distance in this foto. Then after a snack at the cafe you can climb up to the top of the cliffs and walk back along the cliff top to my house and Folkestone. Takes about 4 hours. It’s an amazing walk

Possibly the largest collection of bent, burnt and twisted pieces of aircraft aluminium that I have seen. But seriously, it’s fascinating and worth a half day 😊

The jewel in Folkestone’s crown. Bars, food, champagne, views, live music. What a place ! We all know it as ‘The Harbour Arm’

Do not leave FK without visiting this amazing wild beach. No cafe, toilets, amusements. Just 25 minute walk to this really interesting seascape with a wonderful beach. Go early and catch the sunrise over the white cliffs - or even better go at dusk and catch moonrise to the east. Take a picnic, bbq or just go and chill - and watch out for the confusing time change when your phone flicks to French time🙄

Best Nepalese I’ve ever been to. Loads of Gurkhas in FK due to the barracks - this is the best resto. Take away not so good as eating in. A must visit if you like salt 😳

Mark Sargeant’s restaurant - right in the harbour with a gorgeous terrace and fab upstairs bar that also does snack food. If you really want to eat here you need to plan as it is generally booked up weeks ahead. I have had ‘mixed’ experiences here - some inspired but some a bit, well, mehhh. On balance I would say ‘go’ though. It’s a nice environment, the staff are so professional and any issues we had were dealt with speedily and satisfactorily.

Brilliant place - lovely atmosphere surrounded by books, that are for sale as well. The coffee is wonderful - and the cakes are out of this world ! Proper cakes made on the premises - not bought in factory offerings.

My very favourite trad pub. No pretensions. Really friendly and laid back. Good selection of beers - I like the taster of 3 different ones for the price of a pint. Food is good but fairly standard pub fayre.
