Second booking for our group for this fab property. Every bedroom has its own bathroom so perfect for our group of four couples. Perfect location to walk into the town or down to the beach in less than five minutes. Great pubs and restaurants within walking distance but every amenity in the kitchen if you want to cook for yourselves.

We had a brilliant stay. Everything was perfect. House was so clean and well stocked with everything needed.
Great location just a short stroll into town.
A really lovely large house with lots of room and all of the amenities you could ask for. Easy to walk to Viking Bay and well situated for touring many of the sights of Kent. Clean, elegant and large but still "homey". We had a really enjoyable stay. Highly recommend.

Thanks for leaving a positive review. Welcome back anytime.
Property is spacious, clean, well equipped and comfy. Outside cushions for garden furniture had holes in but were still usable. Location is great. Child and or dog friendly beaches near by, as well as shops and places to drink and eat. Didn’t receive check in information so had to contact the host the day before arrival to be given the information. We were fortunate to be able to check in early which was a real bonus!

Thanks for leaving a positive review. Welcome back anytime.
We stayed for 4 nights at this beautify property whilst celebrating my husband’s 60th birthday. The restaurants in the town were excellent and the short walk was very welcome after we over indulged. The sun shone brightly which allowed us to have a lot of outdoor time in the garden. Unfortunately the cleanliness of the outdoor space did not match the interior. Some TLC on the outdoor furniture would not go amiss. The kitchen was superbly stocked with crockery, glassware and utensils. Extra cleaning materials and dish towels would have been welcomed. Overall this property was absolutely FAN TAS TIC. I would highly recommend 💜
The house was everything it said and more. It is an absolutely fabulous property that was perfect for our needs .
Spotlessly clean , and everything about it was thought through. I cannot think of anything that was not provided .
The beds were high end and extremely comfortable. The bathrooms were pure luxury and the open plan living space and kitchen was something out of a film.
The only constructive comment I can make is retake the photographs for the property as they do not do it justice. The living space in particular looks far smaller in the photos as do the bedrooms.
10/10 or even 100/100 - just a shame the weather wasnt better :(
