Description
The Butt of Sherry is situated in the heart of the busy coastal market town of Hythe, on the edge of Romney Marsh in Kent. The town is rife with medieval and Georgian buildings and is bisected by the Royal Military Canal, a Napoleonic war defence which draws in sightseers throughout the year. Hythe is also the northern terminus of the Romney, Hythe and Dymchurch steam railway which draws in families to the area. A short drive from Hythe is Port Lympne Wild Animal Park and Gardens.
The town forms part of a chain of towns and villages along a long coastal bay running from Dungeness to Folkestone. This includes idyllic sandy beaches and a coastal walk and cycle path which is extremely popular during the summer months.
The Butt of Sherry occupies a central position along the bustling high street which houses a number of boutique independent retailers and restaurants
A well-known Grade II listed property with eye catching appearance and front trade patio, understood to date back to the 18th Century. The property has been well-maintained and as a result is presented to a high standard throughout whilst retaining much of its original charm.
