Wherever you go in Whitstable I hope you will find things to make you re-evaluate your thinking regarding purchasing a second home the town.
If you read the Tourist information description of our fair town you will immediately fall in love with its quaint shops and friendly native inhabitants, its portrayed as a picturesque oldie-worldly seaside resort, but beware they are lying out their arse!
On the following pages you can follow me round town on a tour of famous Whitstable locations that the local population hold dear to their hearts (well they must or they would have been demolished years ago).
Hopefully in the future a “Stars of Whitstable” map will be produced. Then you can pester any famous people who decide to live in Whitstable at the weekends or Bank Holidays, and hide in wait to get a photograph as they leave the homes or visit their favourite restaurant. I expect theses maps to be sought after on publication, so to help reduce the demand I am thinking of putting a picture of Janet Street-Porter on the cover.
Someone also wanted a list of property that was vacant in Whitstable during the week to appear on this site, and what type of electronic equipment they may contain like plasma screen TV’s, computers etc. Unfortunately at present this information is not readily available (in print anyway), but for anyone thinking of conducting this type of research, I can let them know when the time activated lights in many houses in my area are set to come on! This could prove vital when thinking of visiting.
Your guided tour of Whitstable will now start with Faulty Towers one of the most infamous buildings in Whitstable.
It is one of the first sites on our tour to greet you as you approach the town from the Thanet way after your short journey from London.
