Many of the more ancient houses open to the public on the annual Open House scheme, held on the first three Saturdays in July, where the inquisitive can explore behind normally closed doors. Faversham also has the Open Garden scheme normally held on the first weekend in June and the last in July. The town contains the oldest gunpowder mills in the world, the oldest brewery in Britain and the largest collection of fruit tree varieties housed at the Brogdale Centre. On Tuesdays, Fridays and Saturdays there is a street market, which is the oldest in Kent going back over 900 years. Faversham lies close to the historic cathedral city of Canterburyand is linked by a motorway or duel carriage way to London, the coastal resorts of Whitstable and Herne Bay, the main channel ports of Kent as well as being within easy reach of Ashford International rail station and the Channel tunnel.
Faversham is a great place to get away from everyday life and March Cottage Bed and Breakfast is the perfect compliment to this picturesque town.
