Whitstable on the North Kent coast is known as “Notting Hill On Sea”, along with Margate, Ramsgate & Herne Bay.

Name: Salt Marsh
Item: Salt Marsh

Over the past decade there’s been an influx of Londoners, attracted by cheaper property prices and an abundance of Georgian and Victorian housing, beautiful beaches (pebbles rather than sand) & beach huts (made fashionable again by Wayne and Gerardine Hemingway, founders of Red or Dead). Accompanying this has been an array of artists (encouraged by Tracey Emin, her Margate roots & her famous beach hut sold to Saatchi for £75k), gastro-pubs and shops.

Recommended restaurant Salt Marsh gets good reviews and is behind The Duke of Cumberland, (a music venue) the access is level at the rear but there’s no disabled toilet, just a ‘ladies’ with 2 grab bars down a narrow passage!?!. They get 2 BBS Ticks

Duke of Cumberland Pub

Salt Marsh Restaurant.Looks Well it With Flat access. But no Real Disabled Toilet Just a Ladies With 2 Grab Bars

If you want somewhere to stay the Marine Hotel has a disabled room with wet room etc. and it’s also worth just popping in for a drink as the lounge has great sea views & a disabled toilet, (located near the reception). If in search of a disabled loo then there’s good old Pizza Express which says it has access, a disabled toilet and artwork inspired by Peter Cushing – gruesome??

lf you’re into ‘visual art’ then The Whitstable Biennale is on at the moment from 19 June to 4 July. Do let us know if you have a review of your own and don’t overdose on oysters or Peter Cushing inspired art, it could be fatal!
