As we continue into the summer months and the weather begins to open up more social opportunities, there are some places throughout Kent to enjoy. There is a whole number of activities to do and places to visit; here are some free things that you can do in Kent this summer.
1 Kent Firefighting Museum in Sevenoaks
The Kent Firefighting Museum plays host to a range of historical aspects relating to past events in the county’s fire department and its history. There is a wide collection of fascinating attractions such as fire engines, equipment and historic photographs. For a genuine insight into the part the firefighters of past, present and future have played in the last couple of hundred years, the museum is worth a visit.
2 Mote Park in Maidstone
If you are after an expanse of green land to stretch the legs or simply take in some local nature, Mote Park is a great place to start. Located in Maidstone, it has long been a popular place for many to pay a visit.
Despite its vast area coverage, it is consistently well-maintained and has a number of tranquil features such as woodland and a large lake. An ideal location to spend a summer’s day, there is also the option to get involved with a number of activities, such as a play centre and a range of water sports.
