We fell in love with Beckets, blown away by the history of the house and have enjoyed making discoveries and careful improvements over our twenty years here. We have carefully preserved the numerous historical features as well as being custodians of the caves but feel that now is the right time to entrust Beckets to new enthusiastic owners.
We live in a Conservation area in Eastry, which includes a variety of local shops, a post office, the village pub, a village hall offering various activities and a good primary school. The Sir Roger Manwood Grammar School in Sandwich is very well respected while there are several very good private and state secondary schools in other surrounding towns.
Sandwich is nearby with its fascinating medieval properties, individual shops, restaurants and bars as well as a mainline station with the high speed trains to London taking under an hour and a half. For golfers there are the championship courses at Royal St Georges and Princes Golf Club while watersport aficionados can join the Sandwich Bay Sailing and Motorboat Club or the Sailing and Water Ski club.
