Location Summary
Faversham is one of England’s most historic and charming towns, nestled between the Kent Downs and the austere beauty of its coastal wetlands. This picturesque market town is steeped in history with nearly 500 listed buildings, the famous Shepherd Neame Brewery, Britain’s oldest which was founded in 1698 and a thriving Town Centre which was nominated as a Rising Star in the Great British High Street Awards in October 2015.
Hosting markets every Tuesday, Friday and Saturday, the ‘Best of Faversham’ market is on the first and third Saturday of each month, with Antiques and Vintage on the first Sunday. Faversham dates from pre-Roman times, is mentioned in the Domesday Book and is a bustling place with a fine range of independent shops. It has a good selection of primary schools and two secondary schools, one of which is the renowned Queen Elizabeth Grammar School.
Faversham has some of the best walking in England, with way-marked routes through stunning Kent countryside with cycle route 1 passing through. The town also offers excellent leisure facilities with an indoor and outdoor swimming pool, a cinema, a large park and recreation ground, a museum and numerous pubs and restaurants. Two minutes from the M2 and just over an hour from London by mainline train as well as the High Speed Rail Link, Faversham is easily accessible and is an excellent base for exploring local leisure activities and places of interest from country houses and gardens to the national fruit collection to internationally important nature reserves.
