The English Seaside
Location And Convenience
Situated in a Conservation Zone and residential area in Cliftonville, Margate, Walpole House grandly sits just minutes from the sea, with 200 yards step-free access to the beach and the tidal pool at Walpole Bay.
Quirky and trendy Northdown Road is on your doorstep. A 15-minute walk will take you into the heart of the buzzing and creative coastal hub of Margate Old Town, with the Turner Gallery, independent shops, cafés and restaurants to be explored and sampled, as well as art galleries and music venues.
For those arriving by car, on street parking is free of charge outside of the house, whilst if you are jumping on the train, Margate station lies just a 5-minute taxi ride or 25minute walk away with high-speed trains taking you into London in an hour and a half.
Hiring a big place for multiple families often has one overlooked consideration: the designated drivers. Imagine, everything on your doorstep and only a short walk. Park the car and leave it. That is Walpole House.
