Getting Around

Eurostar, Ashford

Ashford - Best Placed

Ashford and Tenterden are perfectly placed.  London in 38 minutes, Paris and Brussels are close enough for a continental day out.  The rest of Kent is within easy reach too.

Please note Eurostar has announced a temporary suspension of services to and from Ashford due to Covid-19 until 2022.

Getting to Ashford and Tenterden is a speedy affair with superb motorway, road and rail connections.  The town's position makes it a springboard for some of Kent's best sights. Canterbury, Leeds Castle, Dover and Sissinghurst Castle Gardens are all close by.  And while you're here make sure you don't miss anything, take a tour with a friendly and knowledgable tour guide who can tailor a visit to your interests.

High Speed 1 services mean Ashford is a mere 38 minutes from London whilst charismatic steam trains puff out of Tenterden and beside Romney Marsh.

And it's just a 20 minute drive to the Eurotunnel terminal near Folkestone - 35 minutes later you and your car can be in France.
