Travel Guide

Walking sort of North from Ramsgate Harbour near the Granville Theatre. 

Pano obviously!!
Walking sort of North from Ramsgate Harbour near the Granville Theatre. 

Pano obviously!!
Dumpton Gap, just south of Broadstairs in North East Kent, England is a quiet and long flat sandy beach that attracts dog walkers and those looking to get away from the main beach.

Very picturesque and great for those who love to beachcombe where crabs and shells can be found amongst the seaweed.
Another one of the Broadstairs beaches in Kent, Viking Bay has a long stretch of sand and a long coastal walk leading to the other beaches.
A castle on one end and this beautiful natural formation on the other.

The white cliffs in all of their glory with an arched side and loads of hidden caves when the tide is low.

Stayed in the "accessible" room and it was not to a great standard. It's a shame as it seemed it was the only room of this standard and if a complaint were to be made there will be no other options. It has opened my eyes on what shoukd be addressed.
