Looking for Things to Do in Kent This Summer?

30 July, 2026

The summer holidays are the perfect opportunity to get outdoors, spend time together and discover somewhere new. Whether you’re planning a family day out, meeting friends for lunch or looking for somewhere to stretch your legs, Lydden Hill offers a relaxed setting in the heart of the Kent countryside. Take a walk, run or cycle around our one-mile circuit before enjoying freshly prepared food at Lydden Hill Food Bay – all while soaking up the views across the track.

GET OUTDOORS THIS SUMMER

Sometimes the simplest days out are the best.

Visitors are welcome to walk, run or cycle the one-mile circuit, making Lydden Hill a great place to enjoy some fresh air and take in the surroundings at your own pace.

Bring the family, bring the dog, or simply enjoy a quiet lap before stopping off for something to eat.

FRESHLY PREPARED FOOD AT LYDDEN HILL FOOD BAY

Good food is at the heart of every visit.

At Lydden Hill Food Bay, our menu is made using locally sourced produce, with breakfasts, lunches and daily specials freshly prepared by our team.

Alongside homemade cakes and sweet treats, you’ll also find freshly ground bean-to-cup coffee, making it just as popular for a morning catch-up as it is for a leisurely lunch after a walk around the circuit.

A LITTLE EXTRA FOR THE SCHOOL HOLIDAYS

If you’re visiting with children during the school holidays, we’ve got an extra treat waiting.

Throughout the summer holidays, you’ll receive a complimentary children’s lunchbox with every adult main meal purchased at Lydden Hill Food Bay.

It’s our way of helping families make the most of a summer visit together.

MAKE THE MOST OF VISITING

From morning walks and family bike rides to relaxed lunches overlooking the circuit, Lydden Hill offers a different way to spend a summer’s day.

So, if you’re searching for things to do in Kent this summer, planning a family day out near Canterbury or Dover, or simply looking for somewhere to enjoy fresh, locally sourced food in a peaceful countryside setting, we’d love to welcome you.
