Whitstable Holidays

Your low-cost UK holidays in Whitstable throw up some interesting facts. This is where deep-sea diving was developed. It's also quite unlike much of the British coast, being almost devoid of fairgrounds, amusements and deckchairs. On the harbour, you'll find the Whitstable Brewery Bar with its excellent seafood and views across the bay. On the High Street, there's a small museum, galleries, a thriving theatre and an Arts Centre. Take a trip to 18th-century Whitstable Castle, recently the subject of a £2m restoration programme. From the gardens, there's a great view of the yachts and dinghies in the bay. Visit Mount Ephraim Gardens on your Whitstable holidays, an 800-acre estate that includes a grand house, gardens and fruit farm. The mansion and gardens offer fine views over the parkland and the Swale and Thames estuary. Whitstable has also long been associated with oysters, and the Oyster Festival is an unmissable event on your cheap UK holiday in Whitstable.

 

Low-cost UK family holidays in Whitstable promise seaside fun. But Kent is the garden of England, and castles, stately homes and impressive gardens are plentiful. There's Hever Castle, Anne Boleyn's childhood home. Penshurst Place also offers a nice trip out and comes with a spectacular medieval manor house. History buffs will also be keen to visit Chartwell; home of Sir Winston Churchill including displays of memorabilia from his life. Leeds Castle, too, offers a great family day out and is often described as 'the loveliest castle in England', with its lake and Capability Brown-landscaped grounds. Knole Castle is also stunning and a home to deer, which roam its 1000 acres. Wine lovers might like to try tastings at Chapel Down Winery or Lamberhurst Vineyard.

On your UK holiday in Whitstable, why not consider staying in coastal caravans? A coastal caravan holiday has come on in leaps and bounds from those you may recall from your childhood. Leaky roofs and dodgy electrics are a distant memory and today's coastal caravans are plush affairs, with fitted furniture, satellite TV and even hot tubs. So take your cheap UK holidays in Whitstable and enjoy a stay in one of the many coastal caravans sites that make UK seaside holidays so special.
