Margate: A Seaside Escape from London

One of the wonderful things about the UK is how easy it is to escape from city life and be somewhere relaxing and beautiful within a few hours. Margate is a seaside town in Kent and only an hour and a half by train from London. It’s a popular spot for Brits to visit at all times of the year, and has that ocean village feel that will let anyone be able to relax. Margate is home to tons of artisans, vintage shops, a beach, a giant amusement park, a contemporary art gallery, and delicious fish and chips. It’s great for a day trip or a long weekend away.
