Location
The 'Village’ area of Tunbridge Wells is a highly desirable network of roads, brick-paved paths and cobbled passageways set on a hill above the High Street and close to the famous Pantiles. Its whitewashed and tile-hung buildings comprise the original commercial hub of the town, ranging from artisans cottages and former shops to grander residences. Mostly residential today, this convenient location offers proximity to shops, the Common, several of Tunbridge Wells’ green spaces and the station, with the Royal Victoria Place shopping centre is approx a mile on foot at the top end of town.
The historic spa town of Royal Tunbridge Wells exists thanks to the discovery of the natural Chalybeate Spring in 1606 by well-travelled English nobleman Dudley Lord North, and is conveniently located approximately 30 miles south of London, surrounded by countryside and offering a popular base for City commuters. The town offers excellent cultural, leisure and shopping attractions including cafés, restaurants and two theatres locally at The Assembly Halls and Trinity Theatre, together with the newly rejuvenated civic centre, The Amelia Scott.
The High Street is within a stones throw away (approx. 0.1 miles) and offers many restaurants including The Ivy and The Warren, and so many choices for delicious cakes, fresh bread and coffee; including Juliet's, Fine Grind, Gails and the Italian delicatessen Arte Bianca. Fresh fish and seafood is available at Sankey's fishmongers, with numerous shops and independent boutiques offering so much more. The High Street is linked by the delightful Chapel Place walkway to the historic Pantiles, known for its charming Georgian colonnade and summer Jazz festivals, together with regular craft and food markets.
