Description

The Castle Inn is situated in the Kentish port town of Dover. The town acts a vital gateway to Europe and has been developing and expanding in the recent years to accommodate new workers coming to the area. The property itself sits on Russell Steet, next to St James Retail and Leisure Park, which houses a number of national retail and food outlets, and brings strong levels of pedestrian and vehicular footfall to the area.

Dover sits at the southern end of the M20 which provides fast road access to Ashford, Maidstone and London. Main line railway services are available from nearby Dover Priory with services to Ashford International (with HS1 services into St Pancras International), London Bridge and London Charing Cross.
