Situation
Number 26 forms one of several Victorian and Edwardian seaside villas which line the beach facing the seafront and built to maximise their view of the sea. Walmer seafront, with its two-mile pebble shore line, extends from Deal Castle to Walmer’s southern boundary, where it is overshadowed by the White Cliffs. A well-used promenade, cycle path and green separates these properties from the steeply shelved pebble beach where a multitude of informal recreational activities are enjoyed, not least with Downs Sailing Club nearby. Deal town centre to the north has a range of specialist shops and restaurants along with a growing cafe culture, the seafront pier, Castle and historic quarter. Rail services are well catered for with a high speed link to St Pancras International from Deal and Walmer along with access to the Cathedral city of Canterbury, approximately 16 mile distance, and links to the national motorway network.

The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:
Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
