Welcome to St.Margaret's, Kent

Basking in the first light of the day, this isolated 'island' in the midst of the White Cliffs has at its heart the lovely seaside village of St. Margaret's-at-Cliffe and secluded cove at St. Margaret's Bay.

Experience "First Light" at the South Foreland Lighthouse. Breathe in history at the ancient church of St. Margaret of Antioch before following the valley down to the Bay and the Pines Visitor Centre and Museum.The surrounding countryside is spectacular at all times of the year, offering an inspiring backdrop to a range of activities.

With a great variety of places to stay, eat and drink ranging from luxurious 4 star country house hotel accommodation to great Kentish pubs serving locally sourced beers, wines and dishes, there really is something for everyone.
