#underratedspots Day trips from London are plenty but today I share some underrated spots in Kent perfect for a day trip from London. Save this for a slower weekend. 📍 Rochester 🚆 St Pancras → around 35 mins 💷 Castle: £9.50 adults 🏰 Rochester Castle + Cathedral + tiny Dickens-inspired streets 🍴 Amore - Italian/pizza, highly rated 💡 Fun fact: the castle survived a huge siege in 1215. 📍 Faversham 🚆 St Pancras → around 1 hour 💷 Market + creek walk: free 🛍️ Medieval streets + Faversham Creek + local markets 🍴 Mum’s Thai Faversham - currently 4.9/5 💡 Britain’s oldest brewer, Shepherd Neame, has been brewing here for 850+ years. 📍 Sandwich 🚆 St Pancras → around 1h30 💷 St Peter’s Church: free | tower: £5 🚶 Medieval town trail + Guildhall + St Peter’s tower 🍴 The George & Dragon for a historic pub lunch 💡 Sandwich was once one of England’s most important medieval ports. 📍 Deal 🚆 St Pancras → around 1h30 💷 Beach + pier: free 🌊 Deal Castle + colourful high street + seafront walk 🍴 Little Harriettes for tea & cake 💡 Deal Pier stretches over 1,000ft into the Channel. 📍 Tenterden 🚆 London → around 1h30–2h 💷 Town walks: free 🌳 High Street + countryside + vineyards 🍴 Montalbano or Peggotty’s Tea Shoppe 💡 September/October is gorgeous for autumn countryside. 📌 Tip: September is a lovely time for Kent - cooler walks, fewer crowds and coastal spots still feel lively.
