Latest Bekesbourne Review

Bekesbourne is a lovely and charming little village not too far from Canterbury. I do find, however, that the village is somewhat overlooked by the thousands of visitors who go to the nearby zoo and the city of Canterbury itself with its wealth of attractions. This is a shame as the village has a nice church, welcoming pubs and restaurants and a number of excellent footpaths out into the Kentish countryside to explore.
