The Cottage, Whitstable

10/10 Excellent

"The house offers plenty of space, a fully equipped kitchen, comfortable beds and everything you could wish for. It’s in a great location and offers views of the most spectacular sunsets. We’d love to come back."

Stylish Whitstable Cottage/ Beach 2 mins/ Courtyard /free parking/dog friendly.

10/10 Excellent

"A lovely characterful house at the harbour end of town, everything on our doorstep. Parking on the street outside (if you are very lucky!) Excellent and personal communications from our host, checking in was very straightforward. Well-stocked kitchen with essentials, and we appreciated the quality cooking pans. Very near the high street with fab greengrocer (Staines), Sainsbury's and Co-Op and others. Bakeries too, plus loads of cafes, restaurants and bars within easy walking. And of course a couple of minutes' walk to the harbour and the beach, great location for a holiday stay. Thank you so much to our hosts for creating a comfortable and homely feel in the house."
