Default Ramsgate to East Grinstead - recommend me a good route?

Hi all,

Next Sunday (28th June) I'll be leaving a mate's house in Ramsgate and riding to my in-laws in East Grinstead. I'd like to take a nice route - can anyone recommend me some good roads / routes to take? Please keep it sensible and don't say 'via Cornwall' or something! I don't know the South East very well at all

Cheers,
Matt

Whatever you do, take the A264 from Tunbridge Wells to East grinstead. Ok, it can get a little busy with traffic, but its a fantastic road. Just be careful as it turns off in places where you would think it goes straight on!

I'll see if i can think of a route form Ramsgate to there.

Dont approach it from the Felbridge direction, thats always chocca traffic and very dull. Come in from tunny wells on the 264 or from handcross/ lower beeding A23 A24 ish.

Canterbury, Ashford, Tunbridge Wells, East Grinstead looks good

Try and get down the B2026 and B2188, just a quick detour off the A264 (which is also awesome)
