Overall Ratings
5.0 based on 24 reviews
X-Pilot, Kent's Classic Pilot Vessel, offers tours to the Redsand Towers from Queenborough All Tide Landing. As the Official Supply Vessel for Project Redsand, the charitable organisation restoring the Maunsell Fort, we are able to get closer and therefore offer a more dramatic experience than other vessels.

Happy Halloween to me. Treated myself to a stunning Halloween gin flight before Pizza. Well the gin flight did not dissapoint. A fantastic little selection of gins pared with a lovely fever tree blood orange soda. The zombie blood wasn't to my taste but I'm not a blackcurrant fan but it was horrible, the spiced pumpkin gin was lovely and light but oh my the blood orange gin was fantastic. The garnishes ....... that's a funny story, the orange was perfect, not a liquorice root fan or the star anise. However my other half does ( this is the funny part ), he picked up the whole ( yes the whole ) star anise and popped it in his mouth and crunch. It made my night and I will never let him live it down ???? Now let's move on to the pizzas. I love their cheesy garlic bread, it is to die for, and the pizza bases are super thin and crispy, absolutely lovely and the bacon cheeseburger is epic. I kinda wished they did desserts lol. Staff are fantastic, very knowledgeable, kind and friendly. Really make you feel like a regular. Hats off to you all.

Queenborough Harbour is conveniently situated in North Kent where the rivers Swale, Medway & Thames meet and an ideal base for cruising to or from the East Coast, London, Ramsgate or the Continent.

Had a beautiful crisp walk by this stunning, quite and well kept harbour. There are toilets in the small park & great range of local pubs. The boats bobbing around on the water with the sun setting behind is just so beautiful. We were lucky enough to see a seal and there are range of birds too. The tide was out and we managed to walk on the small stone beach which was great fun. Highly recommended to anyone looking for great views & a nice day out.
4. Holy Trinity Church Queenborough

This beautiful church is situated just a few doors up the road to us and we feel exceptionally lucky to have it as a neighbour. With rumoured links to the original Queenborough Castle (the font) and beautifully painted ceiling, connected to Flemish painters and quite unique this church is a must visit. There is a very welcoming good feeling on entering this lovely space which is clearly treasured by the community. Bell ringing happens regularly and it is s delight to hear, very old English village. There are various events throughout the year including tours of the bell tower during Queenborough Independence Day in June each year, flower shows and a wonderful Christmas Tree display in December. Visit around 5ish on the first Sunday in December and follow a wonderful Christmas parade from Rushenden to Queenborough harbour, with marching bands lit with fairy lights and fireworks over the harbour. The church is open at this time to share the Christmas Tree display. Many different trees are displayed each with its own story. There are a number of musical events throughout the year including an annual Gilbert and Sullivan marathon, around May time. The church yard links the two main roads in Queenborough, giving access to both sides of the church and continues over the road where there are Commonwealth graves. The church was featured in the television programme Time Team when they were investigating the footprint of Queenborough Castle. A big thumbs up for accessibility here with a ramped entrance. We got married here in 2018, and all agreed its a very special place.
