Victoria (approximate travel time: 30 minutes) and then the train to
Maidstone East (approximate travel time: 60 minutes). (The train
usually leaves from "Platform 4" but check the board to make sure.)

From London Heathrow Airport
To The Friars - Aylesford:
Take the 'Underground" (subway or 'tube') from Heathrow and change at
Hammersmith onto a "District Line Underground" train to Victoria
(approximate travel time: 40 minutes). Leave the Victoria Underground
Station and enter the "Mainline Station," then take a train to Mainstone
East (approximate travel time: 60 minutes).

Via Eurostar
To The Friars - Aylesford:
Coming from the Continent (Europe) by Eurostar, get off at
"Ashford International" and take the local train to "Maidstone East"
(approximate travel time is 30 minutes).

from the station to "The Friars."
To Be Avoided:
1) There is a train station at Aylesford but it is on a 'branch
line' and would be more trouble that it is worth. It is best to use
the "Maidstone East" train. 2) The Stanstead Airport is not
recommended if you want to then go to the Friars.
