Tunbridge Wells is the only spa town in the Southeast of England, with elegant architecture and a variety of cultural, entertainment and shopping attractions, including the historic Pantiles, known for its charming Georgian colonnade, summer Jazz festivals, regular food and craft markets and Chalybeate Spring; there are two theatres locally, an abundance of cafés and restaurants and a mixture of national multiple retailers and independent shops.

The Manor is found within a gated development on the eastern edge of the town, enjoying a tucked-away, yet conveniently positioned, location just off the A264, providing access to the town centre, mainline station and the A21. The town centre lies about 1.6 miles to the west and Knights Park (about 2.4 miles via the A21) has a multi-screen cinema, health and fitness club, restaurant and a bowling alley.
