Gateway to Europe at Springhead Park
City breaks continue to maintain their leading position as the nation’s favourite holiday type, according to a survey by ABTA which showed over half of all respondents having taken one in the past year and almost as many planning to take one in the next 12 months. Offering unrivalled high speed connections into London and all over Europe, Ebbsfleet International Station is just a mile from Countryside’s Springhead Park development in Ebbsfleet Garden City, Kent. Springhead Park’s residents will be able to reach Paris in just over two hours and Brussels in an hour and forty minutes aboard the Eurostar.
