Surrounding Area
Despite Wye's rural location it is easily accessible from London and ideally situated close to the M20 and Ashford International Station. Its proximity to the ferry port at Dover and the Eurotunnel terminal at Folkestone make it the perfect stop-off en route to or from the continent.
Locally, there is plenty in the area to keep you entertained: the 250-acre Wye National Nature Reserve and the North Downs Way. Views over Romney Marsh and the Weald of Kent are spectacular. Look out for the aptly named Devil's Kneading Trough, and Wye's famous chalk Crown. Visit Wye Farmer's Market, Leeds Castle, Lympne Wildlife Park and National Trust properties at Scotney and Sissinghurst.
The ancient city of Canterbury is 15 miles north-east of Wye. Its cathedral, castle, Chaucer museum and boutique shops are all worth a visit.
