Across the river, Rochester Town Centre has a huge number of restaurants to meet the demands of the tourist trade, with many housed in delightful ancient settings.

Education

Education has been key to the area for over 1400 years, with Rochester home to the second oldest continuously occupied school in the world. The independent Kings School, established in 604AD, provides high quality private education for children of all ages. The area is also well served by state schools, with the OFSTED ‘outstanding’ rated St Nicholas CofE Infants within easy reach of Temple Wharf, along with Cedar Primary and Elaine Primary.   

Older children are well served by the popular Strood Academy, just round the corner on Watling Street, which was recently rated ‘good’ in their latest OFSTED report. The University of Greenwich also has a campus in the town.

Leisure

Medway has so much to offer for your leisure time, from a host of historic sights, to modern leisure facilities. Visit Rochester Cathedral or Rochester Castle, follow the Dickens trail around the many medieval buildings in the town, or step aboard a fascinating range of vessels at Chatham Historic Dockyard. Watch out for the famous Sweeps Festival every spring, or the classic Dickensian Christmas in the town.   

On a more modern note, Medway Leisure Park offers a multi-screen cinema, ten-pin bowling and the unique Diggerland, all within easy reach of Temple Wharf, along with the superb sports facilities of Medway Sports Park. Golfers can take on the challenge of Rochester and Cobham Park Golf Club, park of the vast open spaces and woodlands of Cobham Park, just the other side of the M2.

Shopping

Strood Retail Park lies close to the development, with a whole host of famous names from Next to B&Q. You can also choose from the Pentagon Shopping Centre, with over 70 stores, Hempstead Valley Shopping Centre, with over 50 stores, or the Dockside Outlet Centre with over 40 big brands at discount prices. If that’s not enough, the massive Bluewater Shopping Centre is just 11miles away, offering shopping on a simply epic scale.   

At the other end of the shopping spectrum, historic Rochester is a browsers delight, with a fascinating selection of quirky independent shops nestled amongst its ancient buildings. Playing up its famous literary connections, the town is home to more than its fair share of second hand bookstores.
