SITUATION:

Conyer is a quiet hamlet, equidistant between Faversham and Sittingbourne, which both provide high street shopping, supermarkets and award winning schools. Teynham is also close by, with its village shops and train station providing direct access to London for the commuter. The area is famed for its Saxon Shore Way and marina and is popular with twitchers and walkers alike, along with those who enjoy outdoor pursuits, all of which relish its rural setting along the Swale River and Conyer Creek. The Ship Inn public house and restaurant is close at hand as is Conyer Cruising Club.

Faversham has a wide choice of supermarkets, restaurants, individual shops and leisure facilities. There are three markets a week in the cobbled town square beside the ancient Guildhall. Community attractions include the famous annual Hop Festival (the town boasts the oldest brewery in the country) and a magnificent weekend-long classic car show. On the outskirts of the town, Brogdale 'The Home of the National Fruit Collection' stages regular events celebrating Kent as the fruit producing Garden of England.

Both Faversham and Sittingbourne boast high-achieving grammar schools. The cathedral city of Canterbury; Margate, home of its Turner Gallery; and trendy Whitstable, renowned for its oysters and interesting mix of shops, are short journeys away. Thanks to Eurostar, the 'Shuttle' and cross- Channel ferries, the Continent is virtually on your doorstep.
