Mini break in Broadstairs
Very well located property for a trip to Broadstairs and Margate. A walk to the sea front is just a couple of minutes. Extremely responsive and supportive owner/agent. Property was very clean. Two flights of stairs so not for those with mobility problems. You cannot park beyond one hour on the street but plenty of available (paid and free) parking options nearby. We really enjoyed our stay and it was great to be in walking distance of everything in Broadstairs.
