I live across the road from this lovely church, it looks amazing in all seasons. This year due to Covid they did an online version of Minster's open gardens, check them out on their Facebook page - St Mary's Church Minster in Thanet.

Great tour of the historic churchyard. Led by very knowledgeable and friendly guide Barbara. Saw monuments to some of the better known residents and heard interesting stories about them and the history of the churchyard. There are over 1400 graves in the churchyard including some Commonwealth War Graves. Would be good if more could be dome to maintain some of the graves/monuments. Had the chance of a quick look around the church before the tour....very beautiful and quite large.... must return to do one of the Church Tours which are apparently held on the first Saturday of each month for much of the year.

I love it here. It’s like popping over to a friend’s for a pint and a catch up. Because it’s so small and cosy there’s none of the normal settle in to a quiet corner/booth in a big pub and keeping yourself to yourself. You end up talking to everyone and meeting new people each time you go. Gary and Julie make everyone welcome and the drinks are cheap. A good mix of real ales and ciders which is cycled regularly.

Lovely place to go for a walk in the summer, easy to park for a small fee, good paths with views out to sea, lots of birds out there too. Got to see and walk past the ponies grazing today.

Just go. It’s such an unusual church, totally about and for the sailors of the fishing port of Ramsgate. We stumbled across it years ago and always look in when passing by. Don’t expect grand, blousy or huge. Just think of simple and much needed in days gone by. Dont forget to leave a donation as they have to keep it going.....even though you won’t necessarily be there for long

I went here recently for the first time and really enjoyed looking at all the boats in the harbour and there are plenty of little cafes and restaurants dotted around the harbour Plus there’s a sandy beach with a lovely looking sea
