Royal Tunbridge Wells: Affluent, Connected, and Full of Character
Royal Tunbridge Wells is a prosperous and historic spa town, ideally located around 35 miles southeast of central London. With direct train services offering typical journey times of just 50 minutes, it is a popular choice for London commuters seeking a higher quality of life.
The town is renowned for its excellent grammar and independent schools, supporting consistently high house prices and a well-educated, professional population. It also boasts one of the lowest unemployment rates in Kent and a robust local economy, driven by a thriving community of small and micro businesses (SMEs) with strong survival rates.
Major employers such as AXA add to the area’s economic stability, while the town’s rich cultural heritage and natural beauty make it a magnet for tourists.
The Pantiles: Tunbridge Wells’ Premier Destination
At the heart of the town lies The Pantiles — a stunning Georgian colonnade steeped in history and now a buzzing hub of retail, leisure, and entertainment. Famous for the Chalybeate Spring and elegant architecture, The Pantiles blends old-world charm with a modern, cosmopolitan atmosphere.
As well as attracting discerning shoppers and diners, The Pantiles is home to a vibrant year-round events programme, hosting over 100 activities annually. Highlights include regular artisan markets, food and drink festivals, and the hugely popular Music on The Pantiles — a weekly live music series running throughout the spring and summer months.
With high footfall, cultural significance, and a premium setting, The Pantiles offers an unrivalled location for forward-thinking businesses.
