Area Information
Perhaps most famed for the striking White Cliffs which take its name, Dover is a thriving town on the South Eastern coast of England. A port town with regular ferries crossing the Straits of Dover to Calais in France, the majority of Britons will have passed through Dover at one time or another. Dover has plenty of local amenities for residents, including supermarkets, banks, a shopping centre, restaurants and takeaways, and an expansive local park. Connaught Park is a naturalistic open space, with mature trees and open grassy spaces. There are plenty of historic attractions and landmarks in Dover, which has been the site of many invasions and battles during England’s history. The iconic Dover Castle is the town’s most popular attraction, featuring a Military museum, medieval underground works, and a labyrinth of war-time tunnels. Fort Burgoyne, Priory Gate and the Western Heights of Dover are also popular historic attractions in the town.
Elkington House is conveniently located close to the town centre and its amenities. It’s just 0.7 miles to Dover Priory train station, which takes from just over an hour to connect to London St. Pancras International. The nearest beach is Dover Beach, just 1 mile away. The area surrounding Dover features some of the most stunning coastline England has to offer, including the White Cliffs of Dover, the South Foreland Heritage Coast, and the Dover-Folkstone Heritage Coast. Kent Downs AONB also stretches to the fringes of Dover, meaning there’s plenty of natural beauty to be seen when you retire to this charming town.
