London is about 1 hour by car and 15-20 minutes by helicopter
“La Manche Palace” is an impressive and beautiful landmark in the heart of Dover. Overlooking the historic Market Square, it is regarded as the jewel of the town’s central square. Situated in the city known as the ‘Gateway to Great Britain’ and the ‘Capital of La Manche’, the building stands as a striking example of Beaux-Arts architecture and a prominent part of Dover’s heritage.
“La Manche Palace” enjoys a prime position in the heart of Dover Square. The property is just a five-minute walk from the town’s beach, approximately ten minutes from the marina and railway station and within easy reach of private airports and helicopter facilities. Several charming coastal resort towns, renowned for their beautiful beaches and seaside atmosphere, can also be reached within a 30-minute drive, making the location an ideal gateway to the wider region.
The La Manche Palace project could be developed as a luxury residential development
Given Dover’s growing strategic position post-Brexit, the state and council are investing huge financial resources and taking actions to improve the town’s infrastructure, image and attract investment. The Dover Marina Hotel & Spa, Tapestry Collection by Hilton is located next door, while the marina is currently undergoing a major expansion programme, complemented by new access roads and highway interchanges that will further enhance connectivity. The central square, home to the prestigious ‘La Manche Palace,’ has recently benefited from a luxurious £3.5 million renovation, further elevating the area’s appeal and prominence.
