Lympne Castle
Wedding venue
πŸ‘πŸ‘ On Monday 8th May 2023, my family and I visited the castle for the Medieval event, hosted by the new owners. It was such a lovely day, and we all had a wonderful time.

Folkestone East Cliff and Warren Country Park.
Park
πŸ‘πŸ‘ Probably the best beach in Kent. The more you walk under the cliffs the better it gets. Its secluded, hardly visited, miles of sandy beaches that gradually slip into the sea. Clean clear water and perfect swimming

Port Lympne Dinosaur Forest
Park
πŸ‘ Littl'un loves the dino forest. Some of them are looking a bit dated now - one has lost its whole bum/tail section. And some areas are so grown now that it is difficult to see the ones in the back. The little gift shop has now gone i noticed too, and been replaced by some seating for the food area.

πŸ‘πŸ‘ After being in the old lighthouse I had some questions for the new one. Such as 1, Is there a lift in the new lighthouse? 2, Does the lighthouse still use bulbs or now a days is it LEDs? 3, How is the lighthouse operated via internet connectivity? Anyway I think there should be more information aro...

Folkestone Harbour Train Station
Museum
πŸ‘πŸ‘ I adore what has been done with this old station - respecting its history but regenerating the area with artwork and restaurant/bars. The branch and station closed to regular passenger train services in 2001 although they were used by the Venice-Simplon Orient Express (VSOE) and railtours until 200...
