LOCATION:

Ealham Close is a desirable cul-de-sac, enjoying a prime location in South Canterbury, close to both the Chaucer Hospital and Kent & Canterbury Hospital. It is an area popular amongst families due to the close proximity of both Langton Grammar Schools and St. Anselms. The area offers quick access into the City Centre but enjoys a quieter residential feel, with easy access to the beautiful countryside and villages surrounding Canterbury, with nearby villages including Bridge and Bekesbourne.

It is quick to get onto the A2 commuter route from here, and there is a bus stop a short walk away, where you can catch buses into the City Centre and the coastal market town of Hythe. Canterbury has two mainline train stations, with the West Station offering the high-speed service to London St. Pancras.

For the cricket fans amongst you, the famous Spitfire Cricket Ground is within walking distance. Come and support the Kent cricket team or enjoy one of the fantastic outdoor concerts in the summer months. The grounds are also home to a Sainsbury's Local, a physio clinic and a wonderful café offering fresh cakes, pastries and healthy lunches
