Littlestone sits on a flat, shingle-edged stretch of the Kent coast, positioned just east of the historic town of New Romney. It was originally developed in the late 19th century as a purpose-built seaside resort, which is still reflected today in the tall, red-brick Victorian and Edwardian villas that line the seafront. Unlike many coastal spots, it remains relatively quiet, defined more by its open horizons and the vast expanse of the Romney Marsh behind it than by typical seaside tourism. The shoreline here is dominated by a wide pebble beach that reveals long stretches of sand at low tide, while the local landmark - the 110-foot tall brick water tower - serves as a permanent navigational marker for miles around. Life tends to revolve around the outdoors; the area is home to the Greatstone Dunes and two notable golf courses, including the Littlestone Championship links. Practical amenities are found a mile inland at New Romney’s high street, and the heritage Romney, Hythe & Dymchurch Railway still runs nearby, providing a seasonal connection along the coast towards Dungeness.
