The popular village of Wingham is nearby with its busy high street and offers everyday facilities such as general stores, post office, a good selection of public houses and restaurants.

The historical cathedral city of Canterbury is around 9 miles away and offers an excellent shopping centre, many cultural interests, a good choice of schools both in the state and private sectors along with boys’ and girls’ grammar schools. Leisure facilities in and around the area include sports centres and swimming pools, championship cricket, excellent choice of golf courses including Princes at Deal and the Royal St Georges at Sandwich. Fishing and water sports can be found along the coast.
Connections are also good with the A2 linking M2/M20 and M25 motorway networks. The high-speed trains operate from Canterbury West, Sandwich and Dover into London St Pancras. The Port of Dover and the channel tunnel terminal at Cheriton both operate services to the continent.
