The Deal / West Studdal area

The Squire is in truly lovely Kent countryside with lots to see and do. The trendy seaside town of Deal is close by with its pier, eclectic boutiques, renowned cupcake shop and fresh fish direct from the beach.

Kent has more castles than any other county so there are lots to explore with the newly refurbished Dover Castle a must – not only does it have one of the largest keeps in the country but the fascinating second world war rooms built into the white cliffs make this a ‘must do’ attraction. For an altogether more homely feel why not visit the beautiful Walmer Castle and Gardens, the home of the Queen Mother for many years. The wonderful gardens of Goodnestone House are within a few miles, renowned for its parkland setting and stunning walled flower garden – a plantsmans dream!

For golfers, there are several excellent links courses, including Royal St Georges at Sandwich and Royal Cinque Ports at Deal, both of which are close by.

The nature reserve at Pegwell Bay, famous for its wildlife is also worth a visit with the lovely sandy beaches of Botany, Westbrook and Joss Bays (all blue flag beaches) are great for a family day out.

For shopping, the outlet centre at de Bradleigh Wharf in Dover Marina is well worth a visit.
