Things to do
Kent...is
a very English county with gently rolling countryside, idyllic rural villages,
stately homes and castles. Despite its being one of the UK’s most
populated counties, the wildlife of Kent is one of the richest in the
UK. Its location close to mainland Europe gives it a relatively warm,
dry, climate and there is coastline on three sides. This gives rise to
a great variety of habitats ranging from chalk downlands, ancient woodlands
and river valleys to marshes, coastal estuaries and rocky cliffs
