Historic Interest
Walmer Castle and Gardens are a wonderful English Heritage gem, and fascinating for visitors of all ages. The interior is beautiful and packed with local history. Once you've explored the house and gardens, you can picnic in the grounds or eat at the cafe. We have even enjoyed sheltering under the trees in the pouring rain! It's entertaining, lovely, and highly recommended

This is such an interesting castle, and only a short walk from the house. It is billed by English Heritage as 'one of the finest artillery castles in England'. Henry VIII ordered it to be built as a defence when he was concerned about the security of his realm. There is masses to look at!

The Grade II listed Deal Timeball Tower was built in 1820. It has recently been renovated. It is programmed to drop at 13:00 every day, and it's so exciting to see it in action and to think of its history. The time signal allowed ships in the area to check the accuracy of their chronometers in order that they could navigate accurately. Do visit this lovely Tower. You can tie it into a trip to The Pier Kitchen!

Dover Castle is dazzling! There are over 80 acres of castle grounds to explore, and this magnificent, ancient fortress has secret wartime tunnels, film footage, and special effects. There is so much to look at that you may need to set aside a day. They have even recreated a WWI Signalling Station. It is well worth a visit

The Grange was build by Augustus Pugin in 1845. It is set in its own private garden, and Pugin designed it for his family to live in. The interiors are jewel like and fascinating, and this is a very peaceful space. Pugin also built St Augustine's Church, in the shadow of The Presbytery next door. This is a real treat.

The Grotto is a Grade I listed winding, subterranean passageway, and is utterly awe inspiring. The walls and roof are covered in about 4.6 million seashells. No one knows whether it is a Pagan grotto or a Regency Folly, so its origins remain a mystery. It is quite dark in places, with uneven floors and ceilings.
