We've been visiting Ramsgate regularly for some years and love it. The people are so friendly & welcoming. There's art, culture, a good music scene & great pubs. Plus it is an ideal base for visiting surrounding areas. great walks too. We had a delicious meal at Porto Reale on Harbour Parade. Highly recommend it.

Sea front and harbour are are fantastic. A visit to the war time tunnels is a must. Away from harbour the town is a little rundown and needs an injection of cash to tidy it up. Pub and restaurants good value for money.

Looking over the Marina from our accommodation was great, fishing boats going in and out, sailing boats making sail, then the walk around the Marina itself is relaxing. Arches, near by, has curios shops, coffee bars and restaurants to muse round and watch the world go by. The town has a mixture of shops, some nice little independents, which is always good to see, restaurants for every taste and of course great Fish and Chips. A visit to the biggest Wetherspoons is a must, if nothing else, to see how they have preserved the Pavillion, an iconic land mark. Ramsgate gate Tunnels, that protected the residents in WW2 is worth a visit, we never knew they existed. There is a great 1940s cafe in town, that is done up of that era and staff dressed accordingly, we had Tea and cake there, another little gem. Glad we stayed here, rather than other places around the coast, for us it was just right.

We hadn't even heard of Ramsgate before I booked but it is an absolute delight. Fantastic views; lovely walks; mostly very friendly people and lots of places to eat, many with terrific views. Although I have said the length of trip was just right, in some ways it was also too short because it really is one of the nicest places we have ever been on holiday. It's NOT a great place if steepish inclines are an issue (e.g. if you have arthritic knees) as pretty much everywhere requires going up a hill or down one - having said this, we walked everywhere so it's not impossible... We didn't use the car once, which was great, but I think there probably are lots of places to go nearby if you do want to use Ramsgate as a base - you definitely don't need to go anywhere, though, Ramsgate is a really interesting, attractive little town if you just want to look at lovely views and enjoy meals at a range of different cafes.

Historic town with interesting architecture. We visited the Ramsgate Tunnels which were very interesting. There are plenty of places to eat and drink and a huge Sandy beach together with a very popular harbour. The whole of that corner of Kent has a lot to offer visitors looking for a relaxing few days.

There are some great places to eat, but also some very run down areas ,so check it out well. Broadstairs nice walk and well worth a visit. Brasserie restaurant and Turkish one on the front where great. Some of the pubs where a bit rowdy.
