SEA PURSE , ST MARGARET ’ S BAY
A combination of vast , lush countryside , wide open coastline , and very individual towns and cities that pulse with diversity and excitement , seek and you will find whatever floats your summer staycation boat in Kent – better still , apply a little bit of planning to your staycation and mix coast , countryside and city living across one brilliant break .
With a 19-mile-long coastline that wraps around Margate , Broadstairs and Ramsgate , Thanet is undoubtedly the jewel in Kent ’ s coastal crown while Folkestone ’ s creative scene is thriving , and raffish Deal has an edgy charm about it anchored down by a truly beautiful seafront . Swap coast for country with a jaunt along the 153-mile long North Downs Way , following in the footsteps of pilgrims past over hills and grassland , through valleys and ancient woodland and along Kent ’ s iconic White Cliffs .
Then finally , when you ’ ve had your fill of fresh air and tranquility , why not dip into the astonishing history of Canterbury , or the quaint cobbled streets of Sandwich and Tunbridge Wells that pave the way to a booming social scene . The possibilities for a hugely fulfilling staycation exploring Kent ’ s varied characteristics are seemingly endless … which is as exciting as the holiday you ’ ll have .
