Nature Walks & Magnificent Meals in Kent

Food scene

An incredible restaurant inside an active gin distillery. Enjoy a tour of the gin or sit on the terrace of the historic dockyard and enjoy the incredibly high calibre food. A beautiful spot for a treat-yourself dinner! Chatham dockyard is where they film Call The Midwife too :D

Sightseeing

Perhaps the most well-known of British pilgrimages was famously ‘re-discovered’ by Hillaire Belloc at the turn of the last century who wrote an excellent book The Old Road. Walking the ridge, you get a sense of human interaction with the landscape over time; the route follows the ‘spring line’ on the southern side of the chalk ridge, where water springs feed picturesque villages, and thus churches and pubs too, perfect for pilgrimage! Beautiful in spring and summer, serene in autumn / winter too!
