Manston Court is shown on Ordnance survey maps and in most good quality maps such as A-Z etc.
FROM LONDON OR THE M25.
Take the A2/M2 towards Ramsgate, Broadstairs and Margate. The A2 then joins onto the A299 and will take you the rest of the way. Just keep following the signs for Ramsgate.
You will then come across three roundabouts. At the first roundabout take the 3rd exit (right), at the second roundabout take the 2nd exit (straight across), and at the third roundabout which is the Minster roundabout take the 1st eixt (left) on to the B2048 towards Acol.
At the next roundabout take the 2nd exit (right) heading towards Manston, and at your final roundabout again take the 2nd exit (right), which will take you onto the B2190 still heading towards Manston.
After about 1 mile you will come to a staggered junction. Opposite you will be able to see the Spitfire and Hurricane Museum. At this junction turn right onto the B2050 Manston Road heading towards Manston.
After about 1/2 mile on your left hand side, you will come to Manston Court Road, take this turning. Immediately on your right hand side there will be a field, next to that is a second field with trees at the front, and it normally has horses in it. Next to that field are converted farm buildings, and just beyond that is a garage block to our property with a drive through the middle. Drive through the garages and we live opposite.
DIRECTIONS FROM DOVER / FOLKESTONE.
From Folkestone head towards Dover on the A20. This should take about 10 to 15 minutes in the car, and once you are on the dual carriage way, it is one straight road.
From Dover (at the large roundabout with the port on your right hand side), turn right taking the A2 up a lovely winding road which gives a great view of the port. At the roundabout at the top of the hill go straight across continuing on the A2.
Take the first exit off the A2 turning right at the roundabout at the top of the hill, on to the A256. Keep following this road for about 20 miles. It should take about 20/25 minutes to get to Cliffs End. You will see the sea on your right hand side, and there will be a wooden Viking ship on display. Within about 1 mile you will come to two roundabouts. Keep following the A256, so at the first roundabout you will go straight across, and at the second you will turn right.
After about 1/2 mile, there will be one final roundabout with a wooden dragon in the middle. Turn left following the signs for Manston Village and the B2050. As you drive through the village, you will pass a width restriction, and then a church (St Catherine's) on your right, and a public house (The Jolly Farmer) on your left. Soon after that you will see a field on your right hand side, and at the end of the field will be Manston Court Road. Turn right here.
On your right you will see the same field, and next to that another field with trees at the front, and it should have horses in. Next to that field are converted barns, and our garages are next to the barn. There will be a driveway through the centre of the garages, please drive through and we live opposite.
BUSSES AND TRAINS.
The nearest train station is Ramsgate (3 miles approximately), although Margate and Broadstairs train stations are only just a little further (4 miles). There is a bus route about 1/2 mile away outside St Catherine's Church in the village, and a local bus taking you to Westwood Cross and then into the local villages has just started in Manston Court Road. It only travels once each way at 10am and 2pm each day from Monday to Friday. It can be stopped anywhere in Manston Court Road.
Have a safe journey and we look forward to welcoming you.
