We have always loved this cottage and, if we could take it with us on our move to Northern Ireland, we would. It is an incredibly special place with a wonderful character and, whether it is ‘dressed overall’ for Christmas or bathed in summer sunshine, the place is a home for all seasons. We love the fact you can wander up to the Glen for an interesting walk or enjoy a day on the beach with family and friends.Walmer has some local shops, bars and restaurants as well as the bandstand and Downs Sailing Clubhouse along the Strand. The fast train from Walmer station can whisk you to London in under an hour and 20 minutes while it is not far only a short drive to Dover and Folkestone for trips to the Continent. Deal is close by with its plethora of quaint streets, period properties, excellent restaurants including the Dining Club, The Blue Pelican and Little Harriet’s tea rooms. There are also a raft of attractive independent shops as well as the Saturday market and the seafront with its historic pier.Golfing enthusiasts can enjoy their game at the Kingsdown and Walmer and the Royal Cinque Ports golf clubs and if you want to go slightly further afield there are also the championship courses at Sandwich. As far as education is concerned there are very good primary schools in the area, including Warden House, rated Outstanding by Ofsted, while a wide variety of excellent grammar and private schools are available in the nearby towns. *The Glen is a former chalk quarry in the grounds of Walmer Castle and was originally created by William Pitt the Younger and his niece Lady Hester Stanhope between 1802 and 1806 and was resurrected in 2019 and includes woodland walks, interesting plants and bird wood carvings.
