Map of the UK

Yorkletts is a small village on the eastern outskirts of Canterbury in Kent, England. It sits amid the rolling farmland and hedgerows typical of the Kentish countryside and is within easy reach of the Kent Downs Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and the north Kent coast, with coastal towns such as Whitstable and Herne Bay a short drive away.

Historically a rural settlement with agricultural roots, Yorkletts today is largely a quiet residential community with a handful of older cottages and farms. Local amenities are limited so most day-to-day needs are met in nearby Canterbury, and many residents commute to the city or further afield to London; the surrounding lanes and footpaths make it a pleasant spot for walkers and those seeking a peaceful base close to urban centres.
