What the Owner says:
This has been a wonderful family home for some 32 years in a superb quiet and peaceful location within a charming and friendly village environment. Wickhambreaux is a quintessential English village and includes a 13th century church, a village green and the excellent Rose Inn. There is also a primary school rated Outstanding by Ofsted and a children's playing field. The adjacent village of Ickham includes the renowned Duke William pub/restaurant and the Tor Spa retreat, while nearby Littlebourne has a primary school, post office, convenience shop and pub.

The historic city of Canterbury is not far away with its unesco heritage buildings, high street stores, individual shops, theatres, three universities and restaurants. There are two train stations, Canterbury West where the high speed train can whisk you to St Pancras in under an hour and Canterbury East with services to Victoria. Very good grammar schools are available in Canterbury and Sandwich and there are excellent private schools in Dover and Canterbury. A regular bus service can take you to the city as well as to the golf club and the Polo Sports club or to the Thanet towns for a day on the beach.
