Why Folkestone Homeowners Choose Tembok

Folkestone's Creative Quarter has driven a wave of conversion projects we've been involved in — Victorian shopfronts, upper-floor flats and seafront terraces.

Folkestone is roughly 30 miles from our Biddenden TN17 4BD yard — about a 55-minute drive. Recent work in the area includes streets like The Leas, Tontine Street, Sandgate Road, with landmarks such as The Leas, Creative Quarter, Folkestone Harbour Arm all within our regular coverage.
