4 Bedroom Detached House For Sale In Hythe

This property was our parents’ pride and joy and for more than four decades they revelled in the space, the history, the character and the location along a quiet no through road. Having direct access to the Military Canal footpath allows you to walk into Hythe in one direction or taking the country route the other way and even having the opportunity to spot some of the animals in the Port Lympne Animal Park. It is close to the dog friendly Unit 1 pub and craft centre and not far to Botolph’s Bridge pub restaurant. It is also a wonderful area for families with the sandy beach at Dymchurch not far away and plenty of places to go for walks and for anyone who enjoys fishing the canal offers good sport. With regard to education there are good local primary schools including Lympne and Dymchurch, excellent grammar schools in Ashford, Folkestone and Canterbury and first class private schools in Canterbury and Ashford.

At the top of the hill is Lympne, most famous for Port Lympne Animal Park but also for its impressive castle that is now a fairytale wedding and events venue as well as having a Medieval Pub open most days and the Naughty Dog which is a very dog friendly restaurant. There is also the County Members pub and a restaurant and overnight accommodation at Port Lympne and the village also includes a convenience store and post office. However Hythe is only about five minute drive with its array of individual shops, restaurants and pavement cafés as well as a range of supermarkets including Waitrose and Sainsbury’s and the world famous Romney Hythe and District miniature railway as well as a plethora of sports clubs including the Sene Valley Golf Club. You can take a train from Westenhanger station but it is only about 20 minutes to Ashford for the high speed train and shorter journey times and it is not far to the M20 and Channel Tunnel for a trip to the Continent.
