The village sits 5.5 miles west of the larger market town of Ashford with its excellent range of shopping and leisure facilities and choice of schools and 13 miles from Maidstone, both of which are accessible via the A20, whilst Canterbury, accessed via the A252, is some 12.5 miles distant.
Transport links are well supported with a main line railway station in the village, providing access to London Victoria and Ashford International station which benefits from the High Speed Javelin service to London St Pancras with a journey time of just 37 minutes. Junction 9 of the M20 motorway is some 5 miles distant and junction 8, some 8 miles distant, both providing direct access to London and the Kent coast.
