With summer coming to an end, Britons have been planning a weekend getaway to one of the many gorgeous UK seaside towns, however, one in particular stands out.

Ramsgate in Kent had been named one of the coolest places to live by The Times earlier this year as visitors continue to sing its praises.

It tipped Ramsgate as Kent’s next cool and affordable postcode thanks to its beautiful beach and doer-upper Georgian townhouses.

Located a few hours away from London, the town boasts of a fish and chip restaurant that has been voted best in the country. 

Newington Fish Bar has made the list and is rated the 31st-best restaurant in Ramsgate.

One Londoner who moved from the city to Kent told Kent Live “it’s about time” Ramsgate got the recognition it deserved.

Alice Moore, a self-described down-from-London convert who lives in Sandwich but has previously called Ramsgate home, currently runs two shops in Ramsgate with her partner. She said: “I moved here from London and I love it. I’m a DFL.”
