THE AREA
Bayham Road is a highly regarded location on the favoured southern side of the vibrant spa town of Tunbridge Wells. It is within walking distance of many lovely parks, including Hawkenbury and Dunorlan and all the recreational amenities they have to offer, such as children's play areas, tennis courts and a boating lake. Tunbridge Wells town centre, with its well-regarded restaurants, extensive shopping facilities and mainline station with regular services to Central London, is also within easy walking distance. There are excellent schooling options in the area, including those in the much sought-after Kent Grammar system. The impressive, award-winning Bluewater Shopping Centre is 30 miles away and if you want to escape to the south coast, then the lovely seaside towns are only 26 miles distant.
