Ashford sits in the heart of Kent and is one of those towns that's managed to hold onto a bit of everything—rural charm, rapid development, and strong connections. It's got a foot in the past with its market town roots, and the other firmly in the future thanks to fast links and shiny new developments. Whether you're passing through or putting down roots, it's a place that's got plenty going on without feeling too hectic.
The town's history stretches back to Roman times, but it really started to grow during the medieval period. Ashford was once a thriving market town, and that spirit still lingers in its layout and character. The arrival of the railways in the 19th century gave it a serious boost, turning it into a transport hub, and more recently, Eurostar links and major redevelopment projects have pushed it onto the map for commuters and businesses alike.
In terms of things to do, Ashford delivers a decent mix. There's the Ashford Designer Outlet for bargain hunters, Singleton Environment Centre for a bit of nature and fresh air, and the Curious Brewery if you fancy something local and well-poured. Families are well catered for with parks, soft play centres and cinemas, while the town centre mixes chain stores with independents, plus plenty of places to grab a bite or sit down for a pint. And if you like a bit of culture, there's Revelation Ashford and local galleries bringing in music, art and community events.
When you want to branch out, Kent's got more than enough to offer. Canterbury's not far, packed with history, charm and a cracking cathedral. Then you've got places like Folkestone, Hythe and Dymchurch along the coast, or Headcorn and Tenterden for that proper countryside feel. Castles, vineyards, walking routes—it's all just a short drive away and well worth exploring if you're after a change of scenery.
Transport's a big part of Ashford's appeal. Ashford International Station gets you into London in under 40 minutes or straight into Paris or Brussels if you're feeling continental. There are strong road connections via the M20 and A20, making it easy to reach Dover, Maidstone or even the coast. The nearest airport is London Gatwick, just over an hour by road, and there's a decent local bus network covering the town and nearby villages.
Kent's often called the Garden of England, and it's not hard to see why. It's a county full of contrast—peaceful villages, historic towns, lively seaside spots, and miles of green countryside. From rolling hills to hop gardens, castles to chalk cliffs, it's a part of the country that's easy to fall in love with. There's something comfortably familiar about Kent, but it still manages to surprise you when you least expect it.
