Such a beautiful place! We enjoyed sitting out on the decking or in the lounge watching the various seabirds and the changing scene with the tides. Chalet is large and comfortable. This was our second stay so we brought a higher level chair with us as my brother couldnt get up from the low sofa. I could- just! Nothing wrong with the sofas. Just ageRead more and arthritis. Also the cooker was an induction hob so not suitable for those of us with a pacemaker, but we knew that when we rebooked. Beautifu!! Hide

Such a lovely property. Clean and beautifully decorated. Very much enjoyed our stay. Hosts were very helpful and friendly. Great area for swimming and paddle boarding but water shoes are a must as it's a very shell covered beach which can be sharp on bare feet. Lots of lovely walks around which our dog thoroughly enjoyed. Thanks for a lovely stay.

Great house in an outstanding location, perfectly equipped. The sea starts directly behind the garden and the views are amazing. Coastal path goes by just at the doorstep, thus Oyster Pearl (5-10 minutes) and Whitstable (20-30) minutes easy to reach by foot.

This is a great cottage with fantastic sea views. The garden leads onto the beach but due to loss of beach there is too big a drop to go straight out that way. However, access is 25m up the road. The beach is great for dog walking. The cottage is very comfortable. A really restful break awaits.

Warm, comfortable beachside property with a fantastic view of the sea. Well appointed in every way. Unfortunately no direct access to the beach and the road can be somewhat noisy. Interesting walk along the seashore into Whitstable is recommended.

The cottage is delightful - modern, decorated and furnished to a seaside theme and well equipped. Just about everything has been thought of, down to biscuits for the dog. Its best feature is the view of the sea, which at high tide comes up to the bottom of the garden. There is a drop of nearly three feet from the end of the garden to the beach leveRead morel, but I guess this may change with the seasons. The only slight problem is that it's difficult to see the television screen during daylight hours. Hide

Views are amazing and photos dont do it justice, great for bird watching. 3 mile walk to Whitstable is easy and enjoyable. Beach is more for watching birds and wildlife, rather than swimming etc as low tide mark is a long way out. The oyster pearl does lovely food and nice atmosphere for prices.
