Discover Folkestone

Discover Folkestone

For a real change, discover Folkestone, Hythe and Romney Marsh in the scenic south east corner of the Garden of England county of Kent.

It's a great place for a few days' break, for a day out to blow the cobwebs away or to pause awhile on journeys to or from the Continent.

Folkestone and its neighbouring coastal towns and countryside are attractive and upbeat places to live and work - and offer interesting opportunities to businesses which are keen to develop the potential of markets on both sides of the Channel.
