What the Owner says:
We moved here 36 years ago and it will be a wrench to move but we feel it is time to downsize. We love the peace and the wonderful countryside and it is a great spot if you enjoy walking and cycling and there are bridle paths for riding with an equestrian centre nearby. It is only a minute's drive to the village of Alkham that provides a pleasant social life and includes a cricket club and the well-known Marquis of Granby restaurant.

There is an excellent primary school in River that is rated Outstanding by Ofsted and grammar schools in Folkestone and Dover as well as private schools in Dover, Canterbury and Ashford. The location is extremely convenient as we are only a short distance to the M20. If we want to go to London we could be at Folkestone West station in under 10 minutes for the high speed train to St Pancras, while it is simple to get to the Eurotunnel or Dover Docks for a day trip to France. For golfing enthusiasts there is the Etchinghill Golf Club or the Walmer and Kingdown Club near Deal and for water sports and sailing addicts there is the Royal Cinque Ports Yacht Club in Dover.
