Birchington is a village located on the north Thanet coastline, offering a mixture of properties, varying in era from Victorian to the present day. There are a range of shops, cafes and restaurants within the Village servicing day-to-day shopping needs. There are excellent transport links to the surrounding seaside towns by bus, rail and road and with its mainline link to London, the commuters are well serviced. Should shopping at the easily accessible Westwood Cross and Canterbury retail centres not be a preference for your days off, then miles of sandy beaches are frequently used by locals for a stroll or bike ride. The golf course may also occupy your time and the ever-popular Quex Park is on hand for a bite to eat and relaxation. Birchington C of E Primary School well prepares the younger children for life at King Ethelbert School or a choice of comprehensive or grammar schools in Thanet. Birchington is a popular choice for a wide variety of people looking for village life by the sea.

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
