Maidstone

There are many places of historic and architectural interest to visit dating from the 14th and 15th centuries, such as the Archbishops Palace, All Saints Church, Archbishops stables and Corpus Christi Hall. For places to stay and to eat in the town, there are an abundance of pubs, bistros and restaurants that will cater to a wide range of tastes and budgets.
