Property Description
YHA Dover
This Georgian listed building used to belong to Scott of the Antarctic's Surgeon - it is said that the dining room was once his surgery!
The inside of the building still has many original features: high ceilings, fireplaces and ornate doorways. Relax in the sunshine in our large, private back garden....watch the many fish and frogs in the garden pond.
What to see in Dover
Start your visit to our beautiful county of Kent with a trip to Dover Castle (with 2000 years of history) - most definitely recommended by staff and customers! The castle is in such excellent condition you'll imagine yourself back in Henry VIII's time. While you're there, visit the war-time tunnels under the castle....see what life was like in the tunnels during the 2nd World War...very realistic! Of course there are also plenty of other attractions in the surrounding areas....and who could miss the unique White Cliffs of Dover.
