3 Top Coach Destinations To Travel To From Dartford

Sometimes it can be nice to get away. If you have that itch to escape Dartford, why not get some friends together and explore one of these fantastic destinations?

Isle of Sheppey – 36 Miles Away From Dartford

The beautiful Isle of Sheppey lies off the East coast of Kent. Separated from the mainland by a channel of water called The Swale, the island is a gorgeous change of pace to Dartford. From Viking attacks to dutch occupation, Sheppey is steeped in both maritime and natural history.

If it’s exploration you’re after, then there’s plenty to explore around the coastline, or the edenesque Elmley or Swale nature reserves. Alternatively, you can visit the bustling sea-side town of Sheerness, where there’s a plethora of restaurants, shops and bars to satisfy an array of tests. If you’re looking for a mixture between the two, then head to the quaint village of Warden for a quieter experience.

If you’d like to escape Dartford for the day, you can see the sights of Sheppey with Guideline’s executive or mini-coaches .

Canterbury Cathedral – 50 Miles Away From Dartford

Canterbury Cathedral is one of Britain’s most iconic buildings. Having originated in 597AD (and completely rebuilt in the mid 1000s), the cathedral is an awe-inspiring piece of architecture that is phenomenal to behold. The building makes up part of the world heritage site and marks the capital of the Church of England.

Whether you’re religious, interested in history or just curious, Canterbury Cathedral is well worth the visit. Guided and non guided tours are available, taking you through the sublime belly of the cathedral and through the picturesque grounds. Remarkable stain-glass windows, impressive masonry and a wealth of knowledge await you inside.

When you’re done, you can take the time to explore the rest of the city. You won’t be disappointed, and we’ll be waiting to return you to Dartford with one of our executive or mini-coaches.

Kent Downs – 40-60 Miles Away From Dartford

Okay, we’re cheating a bit here, but there’s so many beautiful places to visit in Kent Downs that it would be impossible to name just one. Here are just a few places you could visit to take take a break from Dartford:

Devil’s Kneading Trough – Don’t be put off by the name, this site is rural beauty at its finest. With nothing but greenery as far as the eye can see, you’ll truly feel as though you’ve stepped into another world. Chilham – A small village tucked away in the downs where time has stayed still. Tudor buildings make up the settlements, and you’ll find yourself enjoying getting lost amongst the dreamy streets. White Cliffs of Dover – On the far end of the downs stand the world-renowned Cliffs of Dover. These cliffs are a wonder to behold and, and boast both a natural and cultural significance.

There’s a tonne more to explore in Kent Downs. The best thing about taking one of our executive or mini-coaches is that you can see so much in one day!
