About this property

This quaint cottage is superbly located in the charming coastal town of Whitstable in Kent. With its excellent central location yet secluded position, this could be just the hideaway for that romantic break. Tucked away down a narrow alleyway off of Swanfield Road, the cottage's 'secret' garden leads to the front door, opening onto a hallway and well-equipped galley kitchen. On through to the fashionably shabby-chic living/dining room- ideal for curling up on the sofa in front of the fire. The ground floor also offers an immaculate, white shower room with a heated towel rail. Take the turning staircase stairs to the open bedroom with an antique style double bed,plenty of clothes storage and blackout curtains for a good night's sleep. When the sun comes out, make the most of your front garden, a relaxing spot to sit and enjoy a drink, a beer or a barbecue. Whitstable offers everything you need for an interesting stay - waterfront walks, ancient pubs, quirky shops, excellent restaurants and the beautiful stony beach and harbour. Amongst the many nearby places to explore, the historic cathedral city of Canterbury is just a short drive away as is Margate with its Turner Gallery and sandy beaches, the medieval buildings of the cinque port Sandwich, dramatic Dover Castle and much more.

Sometimes referred to as the "Pearl of Kent", the lively town of Whitstable dates back to before the Domesday Book and is home to a local museum and art gallery - hosting around six new exhibitions each year and boasting a coffee shop. Whitstable Castle dates back to the 1790s and hosts numerous events including a big May Day celebration with contributions from local musicians and artists.

    It’s cosy, quaint and perfectly situated.

    I have had a wonderful holiday thank you

  • Dawn

    The only one thing we did not like was the settee as it was not big enough for those cosy nights in but other than that it was all good. Maybe if you was a tall man or woman the shower was very small.
