About Maidstone
A picturesque town on the River Medway, Maidstone is a diverse and eclectic town which has a wide variety of modern office premises, entertainment options and transport connections for businesses to make the most of. Maidstone is packed with attractions and cultural landmarks, including the Mote Park, the Millennium Park, the Kent Life Museum and Leeds Castle. Like many ancient towns in the county, it has a rich history and a fascinating culture that is packed with museums, galleries and theatres to visit.
Maidstone was once the centre of the brewing and paper-making industries, but today, the key business sectors include retail, administrative and service sectors. Its excellent commuter links make it the ideal office location for businesses who want connections to the City without wanting or needing to immerse themselves in the full City lifestyle and vibrant atmosphere. For a calmer balance between the two, Maidstone offers a brilliant compromise and a greater work-life balance.
