We've tightened what earns a Pursue. A home now needs a published valuation, a strategy that still makes money after real running costs and lender stress tests, and no listing problems that would stop a mortgage. You'll see fewer Pursues, and each one has been checked harder.

3.5 and 5 miles distant respectively) and to the North, the Cathedral City Of Canterbury (approx. 13 miles distant).
Etchinghill itself enjoys a highly regarded golf course and very well thought of village pub.
Bus stops are very close by where regular services to Canterbury can be found making access to higher education facilities, both state and public schools, very simple.
The Cinque Ports Town of Hythe, provides a wide range of amenities including 4 supermarkets (including Sainsbury, Aldi and Waitrose), a bustling High Street with various independent shops, cafes and restaurants, doctors and dentists surgeries, etc., together with a selection of sports and leisure facilities including golf courses and swimming pool.
