Local knowledge
Dover, beneath the White Cliffs.
Dover sits between the White Cliffs and the castle, with the port at its heart. Victorian terraces fill the valleys of Maxton and Tower Hamlets, with post-war estates in River and growing new-build areas at Whitfield.
It has one of the highest concentrations of rented homes in East Kent – and our 01304 number is a local call from Dover.
