Our Town

The historic town of Hythe has plenty to offer. One of the original Cinque Ports it has a longstanding association with the military and was for many years the home of the army's School of Musketry, although that has now gone (and been replaced by a large supermarket) the ranges are still in regular use. The house in which the flat is situated was built in 1820 to accommodate officers.

The town centre is a short flat walk away where you can enjoy a shopping in the unique, independent shops that line the high street. There is a wide range of pubs, coffee shops an restaurants for all tastes and pockets - all within walking distance of the flat.

Overlooking the town is the ancient St Leonards Church which dates back to the 10th Century and is unique in having a skull-packed ossuary in the crypt. (with some notice we can often arrange access).

Central to the town (and less than a minute from the property) is the Napoleonic-era Royal Military Canal, with cycle and walking routes. Built as a defence it is now a Scheduled Ancient monument - during the summer season, you can hire a rowing boat or enjoy a leisurely trip on an electric cruiser.

Just a five minute walk is the Hythe Terminus of the world famous Romney, Hythe & Dymchurch Railway; built in 1927 and known as “Kent’s Mainline in Miniature” it runs a regular year-round service along the 13½ miles of track from Hythe, terminating in Dungeness; a National Nature Reserve.
