Folkestown is a port town on the English Channel in Kent. The town is on the southern edge of the North Downs and lies in a valley between two cliffs. This beautiful part of the Kent coastline offers visitors and those who live in the area the opportunity to embrace a charming English town that has plenty of coastal beauty, history, and a thriving community feel. With a sweet harbour, sandy beach, and plenty of boutique shops, Folkestone is well worth your visit. The creative quarter is home to hundreds of artists and makers, with galleries, bars, independent shops, studios, eateries, and exhibitions. If you find yourself in Folkestone, make sure to make a trip to the beach. It's beautiful all year round, but especially in the hot weather with a bucket and spade and ice cream from the van.
