Faversham /ˈfævərʃəm/ is a market town and civil parish in the Swale district of Kent, England. The town is 48 miles from London and 10 miles from Canterbury and lies next to the Swale, a strip of sea separating mainland Kent from the Isle of Sheppey in the Thames Estuary. It is close to the A2, which follows an ancient British trackway which was used by the Romans and the Anglo-Saxons, and known as Watling Street. The Faversham name is of Latin via Old English origin, meaning "the metal-worker's village".

Had such a lovely half day at the spa today. I visited on my own and had the place to myself! The spa is small but perfectly formed, a fantastic jacuzzi, warm pool and sauna. I liked how you were reserved a comfy lounger with your towels, robe and a jug of ice water rather than having to worry if you’d get somewhere to relax, if it was busy. There was a table full of up to date magazines and although I didn’t have any, some nice sounding food and sweet treats. The changing area was lovely and warm and had lots of nice beauty products to use. My treatment with Georgia was definitely the highlight. I had the 45 min back, neck and shoulder massage and it really was one of the best I’ve ever had, didn’t want it to end! The general customer service was great, everyone was very friendly and welcoming. I would really recommend this spa to anyone, whether it’s for a treat on your own, in a couple of hiring out the whole place as a group. Thank you for a lovely morning, I’ll see you again soon I’m sure!

Recommended by the lovely staff at furlongs (another great pub) we came in here for a few drinks before we headed back home on the train. Incredible beer selection and the staff made me and my partner feel so welcome. Norah and Jack gave us great information on the beers and let my hubby try probably more than he needed. we will definitely be back soon. My only criticism would be they have no background music but when the locals piled in it did not matter to much.

“Vino” is a cozy place where you can really feel at your own ease. A very good selection of wines, accompanied with delicious salami and tasty cheese are what you can surely find in this micro pub. The owner Fabio and the whole personnel are really welcoming and always available to explain how to combine the dishes with the perfect wine. The great professionality added to the typical Italian kind attitude, make “Vino” a very nice place where to spend good time in good company. Highly recommended!
