Restaurants nearby

• The Sportsman★ Michelin An inn has stood here since 1642 and The Sportsman’s reputation continues to bring diners from across the country to this windswept spot by the sea wall. The Thames Estuary provides wonderfully fresh fish and oysters, and the adjacent marshes, woodlands and soils provide meat, game and vegetables. While the place has a comfortingly traditional feel, the dishes mix old favourites (like pot-roast pork loin) with newer ideas. The cooking is assured and satisfying, with seamless flavour combinations and an understated level of complexity. Wooden cabins in the garden are available for a peaceful ni3.2km
• Whitstable Oyster Company One of those wonderful restaurants that 'does what it says on the tin', this family-run spot does indeed specialise in Whitstable Oysters, produced right outside the restaurant in the family's own oyster farm. Fresh and pure, they are a must-order and are available in a number of ways including natural, 'Royale' and 'Rockefeller'. The rest of the menu is as seafood-centric as you'd expect, with minimal adornment applied to the latest catch, be that gilthead bream or Dover sole. A large terrace and tremendous views over the estuary are the icing on the cake.2.6km
