  • How do we afford to travel so often? We're lucky enough to stay for almost free in every city, using bit.ly/livingwalks
    Walk with us through picturesque Broadstairs. This small English town with links to Charles Dickens has to be one of the most beautiful towns in Europe and is surely among the top 10 towns in UK.
    We begin our walk through Broadstairs at Victoria Gardens, overlooking Viking Bay - (Broadstairs beach.)
    Our tour takes us past the Dickens House Museum, along both Charlotte and Albion Street , past Balmoral Gardens and down Harbour Street to the seafront. From we wind up the path to Bleak House.
    This is not the actual Bleak House referred to his novel, (it was renamed from Fort House after his death,) Charles Dickens did stay here every summer, and wrote many novels from here. You can stay in Dickens' original bedroom and use the study where he wrote David Copperfield.

      Hi there Lisa, pleased to hear our walks are of some small help in these times when we can't get out. We still have several month's worth of footage stored, so we'll be uploading 2 every week as usual if that's helpful to know. I hope you'll be visiting your Beloved Broadstairs again someday.

    It certainly is quite brilliant in the summertime. Only a shame that 2020 last year WASN'T a year to expect good things. But Nonetheless, Broadstairs is the place to be, in my opinion. I should know. I live there.

    My mum wants me to take her to broadstairs at the weekend, i've never been so i thought let me see if there are any videos of the place. Man youtube is sooo useful. This is exactly the type of video i was after. Not just showing the beach but walking around the town itself in first person, so now i know exactly what to expect when i get there. Great video!
