The Harbour Grotto
The Harbour Grotto is quite unlike any other Grottos in Kent. The bespoke, beautifully designed space will take over The Customs House; a stunning heritage space just next door to our Festive Marketplace. Dating back to 1859 and once part of a much larger building, Customs House would have acted as a gateway to Britain and a centre of activity in our bustling Harbour. The Harbour Grotto will playfully pays to the historical significance of this space, whilst also delighting visitors with a maritime themed, Grotto experience.
