Our second stay in this lovely flat. It's very clean with a comfortable bed and sofas. We love the position of this flat - so near to the seafront and town centre of Whitstable, so near to Tankerton and the frequent buses stop just around the corner. The communication from the owners is very good and it is very easy to access the flat. A lovely place to stay for a holiday in Whitstable
