“This is a boutique hotel that seems easy enough to find, with parking, and it strives to deliver a family-run experience. The cuisine is traditional British fare at the Earls Restaurant, but be aware that service may not be the fastest. In my opinion, its location near Folkestone's beaches makes it a reasonable choice.”
