Royal Tunbridge Wells

The health-giving waters of the spring still flow and the Pantiles, the famous colonnaded walkway, where the aristocracy once promenaded, is now home to a wonderful selection of high quality boutiques, antiques shops, bars and cafés. Visitors still come to admire the fine architecture, stroll along the Pantiles and experience this charming historic spa town. The village atmosphere of the old high street and Chapel Place, full of shops selling designer clothes, jewellery, interior design specialists, galleries, gift shops and fine restaurants, adds to the town’s reputation as one of the most desirable destinations in the South East. Royal Tunbridge Wells lies in beautiful rural, picturesque countryside. Oast houses, rolling green hills, orchards and hop gardens all feature prominently. A paradise for history, and especially garden lovers, this corner of Kent has more castles, stately homes and gardens open to the public concentrated in it than any other area of the UK.

  • Big Ben- the United Kingdom’s favourite landmark(49.1 km)
    Big Ben, rising majestically over the River Thames at the northern end of the Houses of Parliament, is one of London’s best known landmarks. Originally the name ‘Big Ben’ referred specifically to the largest of the five bells in the clock tower. This is the bell which strikes the hour, while the other four bells strike the quarters. However, the term ‘Big Ben’ is now generally used for the clock itself and the clock tower.
  • St Paul's Cathedral(49.4 km)
    For many people in the UK, St Paul's stands as a testament to all that is British: our history, our independence, our pageantry, our willingness to accept others, and our sense of nationhood. As a structure that survived the very worst ravages of the blitz, while many of the buildings around it were destroyed, St Paul's has an affectionate place in the hearts of many of the UK's citizens, who see it more as a national monument than an ecclesiastical building.
