Very friendly micro pub. Staff & customers very talkative. They were serving 3 Kent ales & a really good cider. Tables were socially distanced & there was a screen between 2 of the tables. Hand sanitizer on all tables. Felt very safe. Dogs allowed. It was so good my husband went there 3 times

Open the door to this charming Tudor castle by the sea. Explore eight acres of magnificent gardens, woodland, and sea views. Explore the castle with the new multimedia guide, and come and see the original Wellington Boots. Take time to relax in the tearoom too and enjoy the food using produce from the gardens.

Fantastically historical castle (complete with Wellington boots!), a delightful woodland walk with the new ‘Glen’ walk in an old chalk quarry and a peaceful walled garden designed for the Queen Mother. Ideal for history aficionados and those who like to ramble through woods. Altogether a very interesting place. Do make use of the audio guide available...

A lovely, long pebble beach that is just great to walk along, especially in the early evening sunshine. It is wide open and quiet (well it was when we went) so there's no chance of not being able to social distance.

We LOVE this pub, it sells a large variety of real ales (hubby happy), sensibly priced spirits (me happy) the staff are great and Chris is just lovely. We come to Deal about once a year and can always guarantee a warm welcome at the Berry, it's nice when Chris says "Do you want your usual?" when he hasn't seen me for 12 months! It's full of locals who are so friendly and I can't wait to go back next year...........cheers!

Visited The Lighthouse for the first time, due to attending a music night with the Katie Bradley band. The pub is a lively, friendly pub with attentive staff and a well stocked bar. The music area is roughly half of the pub, which also gives a good viewing area and good acoustics. Whilst we visited in January, I am sure it makes a great pub for the summer months/evenings. Would definitely visit again, great pub.
