An Ancient Port of Call
Dover is famous for the white cliffs which would have been a striking sight to the Romans as they advanced on England. They decided to construct a port at this strategic spot and it has held an important role ever since. Ferries to Calais and Dunkirk cross the English Channel several times daily and some brave souls even manage to swim across.
A Roman lighthouse still stands atop a hill overlooking the port, but is easily missed as it was incorporated into Saxon St Mary de Castro Church as the bellower. It is found within the grounds of 13th-century Dover Castle, one of England’s largest castles, whose multi-level ramparts sit above tunnels where the World War II Dunkirk evacuation was planned.
Another Roman monument is the Painted House whose remains include some of the best-preserved Roman murals north of Italy. Even older is the Bronze Age boat displayed in Dover Museum.
The Dover Transport Museum showcases vintage vehicles, and the Blériot Memorial marks the spot where the first airplane to fly across the Channel first touched English soil. A path runs along the top of the nearby cliffs, while at their feet is a shingle beach.
The Dover accommodation on Booking.com includes luxury hotels with pools, cheap inns and B&Bs near the train station.

Ok for a day visit to the castle or look at the beach and docks. Good for overnight stay when travelling onward on the ferry. We found it difficult to find typical british eating near the beach, surprising. Eventually found a restaurant (Cullins Yard) located between the beach and the harbour that seemed to be only full of locals. Good food and atmosphere.NigelUnited Kingdom - Scored 8.08.0

We stayed at The Dover Stop and I cannot recommend it highly enough. James & Ben are amazing hosts,really knowledgeable & helpful. The rooms they have created are spectacular & are spotlessly clean. I adored the quirkiness & imagination of their design. The hidden larder is pure genius. We can’t wait to go back & stay with them again 💖 Jo & Andy 27-28 June 2024.JoUnited Kingdom - Scored 1010

The walk along the cliffs was amazing. The trail to the sea along the edge of the cliff was only s little challenging for my arthritis but the view was worth it. Seeing a Spitfire fly overhead was an added bonus!MichaelUnited Kingdom - Scored 1010

Dover is a must see and can be placed on your bucket list. The walk along the cliffs is great and the Dover castle is well maintained and very interesting. Parking in Dover is as per all UK towns a problem and you need to plan accordingly or you can use the local bus services.

We spent a day and a half in Dover and came specifically to see the historical Fan Bay Shafts (National Trust) and Dover Castle (English Heritage). We found Fan Bay Shafts interesting and very 'genuine' history. Note that it is 45 minutes underground in damp, but not cold, tunnels, wearing a hard hat and head torch. Dover Castle warrants a whole day or more! Lots to see. We had time to see Deal Castle too. Good as a contrast, as it is a Tudor fortification. They have tried hard with their pretty good first floor exhibition, but the basement is an underused and under-explained resource which could be much more imaginatively tackled.BarbaraUnited Kingdom - Scored 6.06.0

Dover needs significant regeneration: the town is tired and not appealing. I have known Dover since 1965 and to be honest it is probably now at its worst, but I can see some small signs of improvement: however everything being demolished is becoming a car park!! Dover needs to look like Folkestone or Deal: more independent and unique shops to attract people. Not the standard chains stores and "cheap shops", which of course have their place but different shops attract curiosity. The castle remains the main attraction, as does western heights and Dover Patrol memorial. Kirsney Abbey and Russell Gardens provide a tranquil side. the ride through Alkham Valley, always puts a smile on my face.AAnonymous

- From £129 per nightScored 8.08.0Rated very goodVery good · 797 reviewsWe had a nice stay at the Royal Oak. Room was cosy, bed very comfortable and breakfast more than allright. Good decision to sleep there after arriving in England late with the ferry. Next day we could start refreshed on our road trip through the Kingdom. Dover is also nice, unfortunately there was no time left for a walk to the beautiful castle on the cliff.

Room spacious, warm with a spectacular view Dover castle in one direction and open sea in the other.
