Folkestone’s biggest selling points
Folkestone has a lot going for it, and it’s easy to see why it’s become a popular place for homeowners and investors. This includes professionals who are keen to swap the hustle and bustle of London for somewhere more relaxing, but who still need to commute into work. With easy access to Ashford, Maidstone, London and the rest of Kent, Folkestone’s location is hard to beat. It’s also extremely close to the Channel Tunnel and Port of Dover, with easy links to Europe.
In Folkestone, you’ll find a vibrant Creative Quarter with independent galleries, studios and cafés, and a growing food and drink scene. There’s also seafront walks, beaches and coastal paths, all of which are surrounded by a mix of terraces, seafront apartments and newer developments.
