    Take a break with our dreamy Kent holiday rentals

    With centuries of history, the famous white cliffs, classic seaside towns, award-winning beaches, idyllic gardens, and picturesque villages, Kent is known as the Garden of England for all of these reasons and more.

    Whether you want to relax and recharge surrounded by nature, get your heart racing with walks and water sports, or peruse award-winning galleries, historic castles and family attractions, you can do it all.

    To discover everything this stunning county has to offer, choose one of our Kent holiday cottages to base yourself in. At Snaptrip, we have cottages spread across the county, so you can choose the ideal holiday home in your dream location.

    Why choose a Kent weekend break or staycation?

    Escape to the seaside, breathe in the fresh countryside air or explore the county's vibrant market towns and cities. Whatever you're craving for your holiday, there's something for families, solo travellers, and couples alike in Kent.

    Kent's 1,500-year-old history has been the inspiration for many poets, writers, and artists. You can find more than 17,000 listed buildings, including the beautiful Hever Castle, the childhood home of Anne Boleyn. Just wandering around this pretty castle makes you feel like you are part of history.

    Speaking of history, add Chartwell House to your itinerary. This magnificent stately home belonged to Winston Churchill from 1922. You can see many of his personal effects such as photos, books, and art. The grounds are also lovely (and dog-friendly), and boast woodland trails, lakes, gardens, and a sweet playhouse constructed for Churchill's daughter.

    No trip to Kent is complete without visiting the iconic White Cliffs of Dover. As well as seeing the cliffs in all their glory, you can walk along the cliffs, pop into the Victorian lighthouse, explore 900-year-old Dover Castle, and head underground to discover the tunnels used in WW2.

    If you'd like to see more castles, Kent has them by the bucketload, with more castles and historic houses than any other county. Rochester is one of the oldest castles in the UK, dating back to the 1080s and has survived three major attacks over the centuries. Leeds Castle is often called the loveliest castle in the world. This elegant stronghold has a moat, maze, grotto, and playgrounds for little ones to burn off energy.

    Kent is also home to two of the oldest cathedrals in England. Canterbury Cathedral's spectacular interior will leave your mouth open in wonder. With a history stretching back to 597 AD, medieval pilgrims were drawn to the spot where Thomas Becket was murdered. Rochester Cathedral was founded in 604 AD and recently unveiled the first fresco to be painted in an English cathedral in nearly 800 years.

    Kent boasts some of the most incredible countryside in the country, with almost 7,000 km of footpaths waiting to be explored. Or, if you fancy a day at the seaside, visit Kent's varied coastline. Make your way to the sandy bays of Broadstairs, Charles Dicken's favourite place for a holiday. Joss Bay is loved for its variety of watersports and shimmering water, Viking Bay is a brilliant choice for families and splashing in the sea, or go to Whitstable or Herne Bay on the north coast to experience their diverse landscapes.

    We've only scratched the surface of what to do in Kent. To experience this gem of a county for yourself, book one of our Kent self-catering properties, and enjoy everything it has to offer.

    What our customers say about their holidays

    • Mrs Salter - Verified booking

      The Nut Hatch is the perfect location if you want to experience the peace and tranquility of village life in Kent. We stayed for five days and spent one day walking around the locality of Goodnestone ( lots of public footpaths and wildlife in the area ) and visiting the gardens of Goodnestone House then ending up in the local pub, The Fitzwalter Arms ( literally 150 yards from the Nut Hatch ). The food served in the pub was very nice and is well worth a visit. All the locals we met were so friendly which made the day so enjoyable. This location makes it easy to reach many of the County's attractions. For example, Canterbury 11.9 miles ( 24 minutes ), White cliffs of Dover 13 miles ( 23 minutes ). Last but not least, the owners of the Nut Hatch, Emma and James were so welcoming. Full of local knowledge and very helpful. The accommodation is well set out clean and tidy and has everything you need. Loved the log burner and the clear and precise instructions for lighting it made for a perfect fire. This is the first holiday let we've stayed in where you can have as many logs as you like for the log burner ( and not have to pay when the first batch runs out ) In conclusion - Lovely accommodation, Lovely hosts and lovely countryside. Couldn't ask for more.

    • Aminur - Verified booking

      The owners were very helpful and available when we called or texted them.

      The cottage was clean. The location of the cottage is within a shared area with neighbouring cottages and hot tub and a swimming pool. The cottage was very nice for a short stay however few improvements needed. - Provide guides/instructions for the property (we didn’t notice there was a freezer at the back of the kitchen counters until the end of our trip) - The heating was not working. It was very cold the first night as we only had one electric heater. After asking the owners we noticed there was a spare fan heater. - The cottage could do with a coffee table by the sofas for when you want to watch TV and eat. - Pathways to the cottage could do with some lights as it gets very dark in the evening and it is a long walk from the entrance of the property. Having to use mobile flash light can be difficult when you have bags to carry. - We were expecting there to be basics like salt/pepper/sugar/milk but none was provided given the price we paid for the stay. However basic kitchenware provided.

    • Sarah - Verified booking

      Each Beach is a larger than average two bed bungalow with a lovely southwesterly facing back garden and a good size conservatory.

      The property is well maintained and fully equipped with everything you could possibly need, a real home from home and in a quiet location. The owners are lovely and live next door, which was handy if we needed anything, but we didn’t. The bus stop is located nearby, but we tended to walk into Whitstable, which was a 20 minute walk. Take up the landlord’s advice on the eateries. If you are a goody like us, The Dove, The Sportman, Cockle and Winkle, Samphire and Bubble where all fabulous, but book well in advance of your holiday if you can. Great beaches at Tankerton and Joss Bay too. The property location is great and I will definitely be visiting this bungalow again.

    • Julie - Verified booking

      We had a lovely week staying at Willow Cottage.

      The grounds are very relaxing and we made good use of the hot tub and swimming pool (though that was a tad cold despite it being June when we stayed). We have a couple of things that we feel would enhance the stay at the cottage even more: Instructions for Appliances, Points of Interest leaflets (or visitor guide), Small coffee table, Pizza cutter, Can opener, Steamer pan, Sun loungers for around the pool. All in all, Willow Cottage is a lovely place to take a relaxing break and there are surrounding attractions to visit - Hall Place & Gardens, Knole (NT), Darent River Walk and Dartford Central Park. Also, great location for hopping onto a train into central London.

    • Julie Dillamore - Verified booking

      I can’t think of anything that our kind hosts had forgotten. The cottage was spotless and modern inside whilst in keeping with the historical village. Everything was supplied - with many thoughtful touches - a box of Kent Chocolates, fresh eggs, milk and bread - and two fluffy white bath robes! Everything was of such a high standard - walk-in sensor lights in the bathroom, wall mounted phone chargers, and a gorgeous wood burning stove to keep us cosy. There were details of local attractions and amenities - and our hosts whilst not obtrusive were on hand on the site if we needed anything. We would thoroughly recommend Nut Hatch for a comfortable peaceful break.

    Things to do near Kent

    • Landmark Landmark
    • Activity Activity
    • Natural Landmark Natural Landmark
    Leeds Castle
    Set within 500 acres of stunning parkland, Leeds Castle is famously one of Kent’s most beautiful country estates and offers a wide range of attractions including hot air balloon trips, arts and crafts shops, a maze, an Aviary, a golf course, fine cafes and restaurants and acres of beautiful grounds and gardens.
    Dover Castle
    A medieval castle founded in the 11th century making it England's longest serving fortress. It is located on the iconic white cliffs and houses 80 acres of grounds for you and your canine friend to explore.

    Tonbridge Castle

    Tonbridge Castle is reputedly England’s finest example of a Motte and Bailey Castle. Boasting a splendid 13th Century Gatehouse, it is also surrounded by acres of beautiful grounds. An audio tour brings to life the rich history. Today the castle hosts open-air cinema and theatre nights during the summer.

    Upnor Castle

    This attractive turreted castle is set in the picturesque village of Upnor within an area backed by rolling, wooded hills. The fort was intended to protect both the dockyard and ships of the Royal Navy anchored in the Chatham Dockyard which is a short distance downriver. It entirely failed at this task in 1667, when the Dutch sailed past it to burn or capture the English fleet at anchor.

    Rochester Castle

    Strategically placed astride the London Road, guarding an important crossing of the River Medway, this imposing fortress has a complex history of destruction and rebuilding. Today it stands as a proud reminder of the history of Rochester along with the cathedral and cobbled streets.

    Stoneacre (National Trust)

    Stoneacre is a Grade II* listed National Trust property in Otham, near Maidstone. It is a half-timbered yeoman farmer's house and garden dating from the 15th century, together with a small garden, orchard and meadows. Arts and Crafts scholar Aymer Vallance saved this mediaeval yeoman's house from destruction in 1920, and restored it into the charming house that it is today. Toilets and picnic benches.

    Hever Castle & Gardens

    Hever Castle began as a country house built in the 13th century and was home to the Boleyn family from 1462 - 1539 including Anne Boleyn, the second queen consort of King Henry VIII. The castle fell into disrepair in the early 1900s. Much of what you see is the result of the efforts of William Waldorf Astor, who used his fortune to restore and extend the Castle in the early 20th century.

    Frequent questions

    • What is Kent best known for?

      Kent, a county in southeastern England, is renowned for its iconic White Cliffs of Dover, historic Canterbury Cathedral, picturesque castles, and its designation as the "Garden of England" with its beautiful countryside and abundant orchards. Additionally, Kent holds literary significance as the setting of Chaucer's Canterbury Tales and as a place where Charles Dickens resided and drew inspiration for his novels.

    • Which seaside resorts are in Kent?

      Kent is home to several popular seaside resorts, including Margate, Whitstable, and Broadstairs. These coastal towns attract visitors with their sandy beaches, charming promenades, and a variety of entertainment and leisure activities.

    • Is one day enough to see Canterbury?

      While one day in Canterbury can give you a glimpse of its highlights, it may not be sufficient to fully explore and appreciate everything the city has to offer. Canterbury is rich in history, with attractions like Canterbury Cathedral, St. Augustine's Abbey, and the Canterbury Tales Museum, so extending your visit to at least a couple of days would allow for a more comprehensive exploration of this historic city.

    • Which area is best to stay in Kent?

      Determining the best area to stay in Kent depends on your preferences and interests. Canterbury is a popular choice due to its historical significance and central location. If you prefer coastal charm, towns like Whitstable or Margate offer a seaside experience. For a rural escape, areas such as the Kent Downs or the villages near the North Downs provide tranquility and natural beauty. Ultimately, the best area to stay in Kent will depend on the specific experiences you seek during your visit.
