Great little house and garden in an excellent location in beautiful Whitstable. Within 1 minute of the high street with all its independent shops, pubs, restaurants and cafes. About a 5 minute walk from the harbour and coast. The house has nice retro furniture and pictures on the wall. A couple of little improvements in terms of cleaning, maintRead moreenance and welcome would make it 5 stars out of 5 rather than 4. Nevertheless, recommended with confidence. Hide

Lovely cottage right in the centre of Whitstable at a good price. It's on a side street, so it's quiet. Everything we needed in the cottage was easy to find and the owner was quick and helpful when I messaged about parking. Parking in the streets around the cottage is free. Really lovely place to stay.

Cottage comfortable and clean but needs the extra upgrade as suggested. Response from holidaycottges.co.uk - Thank you for your review. We have passed on your suggestions of getting a microwave and a bigger TV to the owner.

Excellent holiday and such a good position right next to the beach and the town. Very quiet and managed to park easily. Lovely decoration and style and comfortable beds. The bonus was the en-suite toilet. Really enjoyed our stay and would definitely stay again.

The cottage, was charming. It was beautifully done throughout, we loved everything although the stairs were a little steep. It had everything and more than what we needed for our stay, with beautiful shops, restaurants and the seaside on our doorstep. It was comfortable, warm and cosy. Just lovely. We would stay there again and totally recommend itRead more. Parking is not great, but we managed, with minimal time in the actual car park, which is literally behind the back gate. Amazing home for our weeks holiday. Thank you! Hide
