SITUATION:

The Old Chapel enjoys a wonderful position, just of the main high street and moments from the village square in the picturesque village of Elham, which can be found deep in the heart of the North Downs and within the Kent Downs area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.

Whilst much of the countryside surrounding the village is arable farmland there are still patches of grassland where wildlife is allowed to flourish such as Baldock Downs and Hall Downs. For much of its history, Elham was a small market town, and it retains many of the fine buildings of its late medieval and Tudor heyday. The Square or old marketplace of Elham adjoins the churchyard of the Grade I listed church of St. Mary, on the north side and dates from 1251. The village is served by several fine pubs, a tearoom, a village stores and a village hall which hosts numerous clubs and societies. The village also benefits from a doctor's surgery and a Church of England primary school.

The bustling cathedral city of Canterbury is just nine miles away, whilst the coastal town of Folkestone is approximately five miles away and offers a good selection of amenities.
Canterbury is a vibrant and cosmopolitan city, with a thriving city centre offering a wide array of High Street brands alongside a diverse mix of independent retailers, cafes, and international restaurants. The city also offers a fine selection of sporting, leisure, and recreational amenities, including the refurbished Marlowe Theatre.

The city has an excellent choice of educational amenities, ranging from Grammar schools to well-regarded private schools and three universities. Canterbury offers a regular rail service to London Victoria, Charing Cross and Cannon Street and the high-speed rail link connects with London's St Pancras from Canterbury West station in just under one hour.

Ashford International Station (approx. 15 miles) and the Channel Tunnel at Folkestone (approx. 6 miles) both provide regular Eurostar and shuttle services to the continent, whilst the A2/M2 motorway provides good access to both London and the Channel port of Dover.
