Folkestone

Folkestone, situated in Kent County close to Dover, is one of England's most elegant Edwardian resorts that takes advantage from the close location to the Channel Tunnel. The resort town boasts sandy beaches, colourful gardens and charming people. Children will enjoy Toll Road Playground and the Rotunda amusement park. In Folkestone there are several excellent examples of the Napoleonic Martello Towers, gun towers designed specifically for beach defence. The town played an important role in the Second World War, when nearby Hawkinge Airfield was a front-line fighter station during the Battle of Britain. Nearby you can admire the Leeds Castle, a faithfully restored national treasure that is home to a fine collection of medieval furnishings, paintings and tapestries
