Hunters Forstal: venues, access and local tips
Hunters Forstal is about 1 mile south-east of Herne Bay, in Kent. Give us the address of your event in Hunters Forstal, and we will plan access and set-up. We serve in 922 places across Kent, from the larger towns to small villages, wherever the truck or trailer can get in. Our truck and trailer cover the area from Hunters Forstal to Canterbury (6 miles away).
By rail: the nearest station is Herne Bay station, about 1.1 miles north-west. When the service is at a church such as Church of St Bartholomew, the food generally happens elsewhere, at a field, hall or garden with room for the truck.

The truck or trailer needs firm ground rather than sand or shingle, and seafront spots typically need permission from the council or landowner.
