Once the town`s Auction Room, this spacious one-bed retreat has been reimagined with a love for Danish hygge. Mid-Century Modern design sits effortlessly alongside heirloom Danish pieces passed through Lilli`s family.
The spacious apartment features a double bed, walk-in shower and full kitchen, thoughtfully arranged to flow around a calm, central living space. Make this retreat your home as you discover Whitstable’s treasures.
Spot the beautifully preserved linen cupboard and rocking chair from Lilli`s great-great-grandmother, and don’t miss the wonderfully eccentric copy of the Bayeux Tapestry—faithfully reproduced (naughty bits included!) by her cigar-smoking, whisky-drinking `Oldemor` (great-grandmother).
To gently define the apartment’s zones—from shower room to bedroom—integrated pocket and concealed doors allow the space to unfold with a sense of calm, comfort and quiet intention. For your convenience there is a dishwasher and a Miele washing machine/tumble dryer.
When she’s in town, Lilli starts her mornings at Windy Corner Café, grabs hot donuts from The Forge, a bite at Wheelers for lunch and finishes the day people-watching at The Neptune—affectionately known as “the pub at the end of the universe.”
Blending cherished history with warm, modern comfort, we hope this home makes your heart sing—perhaps even like Aqua’s Barbie Girl (Denmark’s most famous pop export… though we agree they probably should have stuck to furniture design).

To access the property you will need to use stairs - there is not a lift available.
Bed above main bed - Please note this is not available for guests to use, it is not suitable for adult weight. Please don’t climb the ladder or get onto the bunk bed mattress.
Fireplace - The fireplace is non-functional and for decorative use only. As the chimney is not suitable, lighting a fire creates a safety risk and is strictly prohibited.
Pets - We welcome 1 small/medium sized dog. If your dog jumps onto furniture, please bring suitable blanket covers, as some furniture items are family heirlooms. We ask that you avoid leaving your pet alone in the apartment as this can cause your pet to become distressed and may disturb neighbours/result in damaged furniture.
