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

Ashamed to say, 35 yrs living in Thanet and driving by this place and we’d never been before! We were totally missing out! We spent just shy of 3 hours here and chose to visit the day they had birds of prey there. We were able to pay £1 for a photo and a hold of one of the birds, with all proceeds going to the reserve. There are plenty of picnic areas. Also plenty of benches to stop at along the walks. There is a fairy trail and a dinosaur trail to keep the little ones busy. There are also brass rubbings but no materials provided for them. My only negative was the museum quiz. We attempted it and even us grown ups couldn’t find the answers so we gave up. Bit disheartening for the kids. This could be made easier.

Didn't know what to expect today, but it was a real treat and great history lesson. Air raid shelter tunnels 2 and a bit miles built in 8months with massive foresight... Thoroughly enjoyed the history and artifacts. Need sturdy shoes to walk the tunnels of which you may cover approx 1 mile underground. Enjoyable afternoon with the family. Avoid taking very young children!
