Kinsale

Accomodation was delightful

Absolutely the best Sykes "cottage" we have stayed in.

Every possible kitchen utensil was provided. Comfy lounge, lovely garden. Beds comfortable, good bathrooms. Just one thing slight issue with the water pressure. A perfect home from home. Location spot in for getting to the beach or High Street, although Broadstairs is a wee bit hilly. It is great place to eat, such a variety of wonderful restaurants and cafes.

Would highly recommend Kinsale.

Very spacious great facilities central location five minute walk from the beach perfect for our family get together.

Excellent four level property, which was made to provide fun for three children, and ensure that the time spent in the house was comfortable, fun and diverting.

With three youngsters, one of which was pretty new and celebrated his first birthday while we were there, it meant that all dining and evening relaxing was in Kinsale......and it was so good. All the rooms were well sized and equipped, lots of games, books and other diversions, and simple systems to organise the cooking, putting out the rubbish etc....and good parking. For outings, there are great amenities and beaches nearby, plenty of super places for brunch, lunch and breaks (The Tartar Frigate and Ebenezer's Place near Viking Beach were great (and easy) finds), as well as quiet coffee bars for those amongst who had to undertake some remote work while we were there. Importantly there were great places to watch the football (The Crampton and The Counting House) for the few interested in such things. Lots of great places to visit in the surrounding area (Whitstable, numerous castles and roman sites, Margate with the caves, Turner Gallery, amusements etc), as well as the friendliest Park Run (Pegwell Bay) and Junior Park Run (Hartsdown Park, Margate) that we have visited. Truthfully, I cannot think of anything not to like. Date of experience: 21 February 2025

Excellent property.

Spacious and comfortable. Quiet location, well situated for local shops and restaurants. Only minutes from the seafront and beach. Ideal for coastal walks.

very comfortable, well equipped property.

we had a problem with fuse tripping while we were there, owners dealt with it rapidly, excellent service. Ideal base for travelling around area.

Best holiday accommodation we have stayed in in 20+ years.

Great location: a short walk to a couple of beaches and close to shops. Very well equipped with everything needed for 10 people. Definitely recommend.

The property is perfectly placed for a holiday in Broadstairs.

Also near the railway station if you fancy a trip to Canterbury or Whitstable. There was plenty of crockery, cutlery pans etc. provided. Plenty of seating in the lounge and everything we needed in the bathrooms. Bedrooms and bathrooms were fine although the downstairs one was a little cold - the towels never seemed to dry. overall we had an enjoyable time at Kinsale.

Kinsale was delightful , perfect location , clean, comfortable….

Can’t fault it! Home from home, all you need is there. The owners communication was great, highly recommended !!!

Everything we needed for a comfortable stay and easy access to Broadstairs high street and restaurants.

Very quiet location . Excellent fresh fish at Fruits de Mer. Loop bus covers Broadstairs, Margate and Ramsgate for trips out

We have stayed at Kinsale twice now, the house is in a great location and well maintained by the owners.

A wonderful, comfortable house in a quiet yet central situation.

Beautifully decorated with lots of artwork. Incredibly well equipped kitchen, and plenty of games and toys, perfect for our family group of 5 adults and 3 young children.

Property as described and shown in the photos.

Good location, short walk to beach via car park or High Street. Lots of restaurants and bars within walking distance. Beds and sofas were comfy and as a party of 6 adults we liked the 3 bathrooms plus another toilet near the lounge. Very well equipped, towels and bedding were good quality and no problem parking 2 large cars. Overall we were very happy with the property and would stay there again.

The location of the house was excellent, lots of space for everyone.

Quiet surroundings, many things within walking distance. Broadstairs is a very beautiful place. Unfortunately the house was not as clean as we had hoped. Especially in the bathrooms the tiles were full of water splashes and the floors were not completely clean either. The shower heads were extremely calcified, which was a shame. The fittings in the kitchen were also not ideal. In general, the house was a bit "chaotic" (order in the cupboards). We only want to share this as a suggestion, we liked it anyway.

We had a lovely stay in this excellent property.

We would certainly book again but there were a few issues: 1. The decking was damaged, making it a little dangerous for children. 2. The bbq was not usable - it was so dirty that simply not fit for purpose. 3. The TV worked but was not connected properly - the freeview and normal TV channels were not available. The owners, however, were extremely friendly and helpful, particularly with returning a mobile my daughter left behind.

The house is brilliant, so well set up for families and has everything you could need.

I would stay here again.

Excellent location near the beach and town.

The house was extremely well equipped, probably the best we’ve ever had. It was tastefully decorated and comfortable. The patio and garden were an added bonus. We managed to park 3 cars too.

A spacious and comfortable house in just the right location!

Four of us (adults) stayed for nine nights - we particularly enjoyed the airy and sunny lounge with two large sofas and two arms chairs; decent bedrooms, two with en-suite; well designed kitchen with everything to hand. We found great walks directly from the house and many more a short drive away. The owners of the house were very helpful when we contacted them with a query. We recommend a stay at Kinsale!

What a wonderful house.

Ideal for 6 adults and 4 children. Beautifully kept and the best stocked house we have stayed in. Great location- 5min to town and 7min to beach. Lovely Holiday

Lovely, modern townhouse on 4 floors, beautifully furnished and really well equipped with everything you can think of, including books, toys and games, buckets and spades, washing up things, tea and coffee sachets, salt and pepper, cafetieres, cookery books etc.

There is a Co op a couple of minutes' walk away and other shops and restaurants further down the street. The back way down to the sea front with its sandy beaches takes about 5 minutes. Would highly recommend a stay here.

The setters were a bit dirty.

They needed a clean.

Kinsale is a fantastic house - well maintained and equipped and a 10 min walk to the beach, but far enough away to be peaceful.

Owners are really responsive and the garden is a lovely bonus.

The cottage was clean, well equipped and very close to all the amenities.

We had a very good break and would recommend Kinsdale and Sykes Cottages for future use. The owner was very helpful. We all loved Broadstairs and I’m sure we will revisit the area at a future date. Many thanks, Julia and Nick.

The property had everything one could need on a holiday, including plenty of cleaning materials.

The patio garden was lovely to sit in for breakfast in the sunshine, surrounded by pear trees, roses and colourful garden pots. There were also herbs available to use. The local pubs and restaurants we visited all had very efficient sanitising and social distancing practices in place.

Everything was great and the accommodation was first class and in an excellent location.

The only thing we struggled with was the TV remote controls and we couldn't get the TV to work in any of the bedrooms. Couldn't find the instructions on how to use them anywhere.

Our family had a fantastic week staying at Kinsale and we’re blessed by fantastic weather.

The house really exceeded our expectations and was possibly the the best holiday rental that we have stayed in over the past 20 years it really was like home from home with everything needed for the whole family. Location was excellent with easy 7 minute walk into town and beaches and we would really recommend Kinsale to anyone looking for first class accommodation in Broadstairs.

The house was amazing every thing you needed (if some what round the wrong way) The rooms were spacious and tastefully dressed The beaches were close and the local shops and eateries were close by

Enjoyed the holiday very much.

Saw my nieces and their children. It was lovely.

This is a beautiful holiday home.

Conveniently located near shops and beach. Lovingly decorated and a very homely feel. The photos do not do it justice, this is a real gem. The owners are very friendly, helpful and flexible and we can't recommend this holiday let enough. We would definitely stay here again next time we are back in Broadstairs.

I go to see my nieces and it was a wonderful week

An excellent holiday location, which is why we have stayed at Kinsale several times.

It is but a few minutes walk from the beach and railway station and local shops. The house itself has everything one could reasonably ask for.

Excellent family accommodation could find fault with anything.

I would definitely recommend this property. Owners Noel and Mary more than happy to help

Fabulous house and we would love to return!

It’s a good sized property with a high standard of facilities

The wonderful surprise that all information we received about our accommodation before our holiday was accurate we could not have asked for anything better as it was perfection in every way home from home

The house was just perfect for the amount of guests, plenty of space spread over 3 levels.

Perfect family getaway house with beach only 5 mins walk. Clean house , lovely decking garden

There was a slight issue with parking as we had 3 cars.

Although they were parked considerately one of the neighbours still put a note on the cars.

Lovely property with lots of additions that helped make our stay so much more comfortable.

Amazing property to suit both larger and small groups. A relaxing Christmas break - thank you for the extra Christmas details during our stay.

Great holiday, wonderful house, made it a pleasure to go back at the end of the day.

Very good family house.

Good location. Able to park 3 cars in front of house very handy. Comfortable home from home.

Great house with the best facilities we have ever had, very clean.

Location excellent.

The service from Sykes was faultless and we would definitely use this site again.

The property also was faultless - beautifully presented, every comfort catered for and we would certainly return

Having tried to book a cottage in France I've since realised how good your system is!

Fantastic property, albeit with a few flights of stairs.

Clean and quiet, tea and coffee provided. The loop bus is the easiest way to get to Margate and Ramsgate. Don't miss the Ramsgate tunnels or the many micropubs in the area.

nothing as all was superb.
