Thread: Tell me about Kent

Actually Medway has very good links to London, the fast London (Victoria) service runs from Gillingham/Chatham, it only makes a couple of stops.

I would definitely recommend Tunbridge Wells. There are trains direct to London (approx 40mins on train) and it is a really nice town. Getting to the medway area from there is also easy - about 30mins in car, but trains are also easy.
Alternatively Tonbridge is good, the town isn't as nice, but the transport links are perfect for London and Medway.
Both Tunbridge Wells and Tonbridge are relatively small towns, and are surrounded by lovely countryside, but they do have good shops and bars if you fancy staying local. (T.wells is better for shops/bars).

Tunbridge Wells is pretty cool

As I'm originally from Ashford all I can say is don't stop too long at the traffic lights. The back end of your car might get jacked up.

Only kidding, they're all armed around there and just open your car door

One of the worst memories I had of my hometown was looking out the window and seeing someone firing a gun into the air. (Complete with flash and bang)

Lol very mixed opinions about Kent! Not that alarmed by anti-social behaviour, after ten years in the south of Manchester it kind of makes me feel at home lol
