Densole Kent Map

About Densole

Densole rests in the rolling Kent countryside, a scatter of homes and fields that catch the late afternoon sun. It lies 5.7 km north-north-west of Folkestone (from Folkestone: bearing 344°T, OS grid TR 210 415), and is situated north-north-west of Hawkinge village. The land here slopes gently towards the coast, and on clear days, the faint shimmer of the English Channel can be seen from higher points. A network of quiet lanes, bordered by hedgerows that hum with insect life in the summer months, connects Densole to its neighbours. Old farmsteads, their flint walls weathered by generations of wind and rain, speak of a long agricultural past. The air often carries the scent of damp earth and distant sea salt, a subtle reminder of its proximity to the coast.
