    The house is a real home from home and owner Angela goes to great lengths to make it very welcoming including leaving treats and toys for the children for Halloween. A great place to stay if a large family visiting Margate.

    Very well equiped but could do with a cafetiere! Otherwise we had everything that we needed.

    Hi Anne, thank you for taking the time to give me a review. I leave a good selection of drinks in the kitchen for my guests to help themselves to and nobody has ever asked for a cafetiere before, so I was quite surprised by this, but I always welcome feedback and will give it some thought. So glad you loved the house though. Xxx Property Owner

    Spacious, bright and full of little extras to help make our stay comfortable. The kitchen is well-equipped, bathrooms clean with good showers and the beds comfortable. The garden was particularly attractive for relaxing and our two year old enjoyed discovering the variety of wildlife-friendly areas. We would definitely return.

  • "Wildlife Haven was ideal for our large family (2 teenagers and 5 year old twins)."

    Everyone had their own space. We had everything we needed. I particularly liked having the en-suite bathroom. The house was clean and tidy and felt very homely. We loved the garden and enjoyed eating outside in the warm evenings. The house was an ideal location for exploring Margate, Broadstairs, Ramsgate and Canterbury. I wish we could have stayed longer as it was a relaxing holiday. We would definitely like to return as there were other places to explore and things to do which we didn’t get time for. Thank you to Angela who was incredibly helpful in giving us suggestions for things to do locally. The little notes you left around the house came in handy

    Hi Caroline, I really appreciate you taking the time to give me this great review and so glad you had a wonderful time at Wildlife Haven and exploring the many different lovely places nearby.

    The garden is a wildlife haven with foxes living there. Has 4 good size bedrooms, bathroom, en-suite and downstairs toilet. You can usually park your car outside the front. It’s in a good location to explore Kent.

    The house is beautifully decorated (we spent a long time just looking at all the different pictures and artwork around the house!) and everything you could possibly need for a fantastic stay is provided . The leaflets and info for local attractions were helpful and my mother enjoyed spending her evenings working on one of the jigsaw puzzles provided, she only wished we stayed longer so she could finish it! The house was very clean and warm, and the beds were all very comfortable. We will definitely stay again if we are back in the area

    It was very ideal the location as we spent time at both Ramsgate and Broadstairs. We ventured to some of the beaches in Margate which took a matter of minutes to get to. The house was great for us all it was so comfortable the beds were clean and fresh along with enough towels for 6 adults to use. The house was a great size and allowed us to also be able to eat as a family and relax after a busy few days down at the beach fronts. Great showers and the facilities were also enough that we could all get ready without waiting for bathrooms. The little touches you left for us all made us feel welcome in your home. Thank you and would look to use you again in the future.

With convenient roadside parking and proximity to local shops and pubs, this delightful house is perfect for families, friends and couples seeking a seaside escape. Upon entering the property, you'll be greeted by a spacious lounge with a large TV, electric log effect fire, and plenty of comfy seating.

Follow through the hallway to a colourful, spacious dining room with original features and a beautiful chandelier over the table.

This leads into the lovely bright and airy conservatory overlooking the garden, with an additional dining table and seating, ideal for enjoying meals with a view of the garden. Further into the property, a light-filled conservatory offers additional dining seating, ideal for enjoying meals with a view of the garden.

Further along is the light and spacious kitchen fully equipped for all your culinary needs.

Also with a small table to share a cuppa at breakfast.

There is a utility room next to the kitchen with a washing machine to take care of your washing.

Next to this is a WC which completes the ground floor. Upstairs, you'll find four well-presented bedrooms, each offering a peaceful space to rest after a day of exploration.

The first is a relaxing king-size room with an en-suite shower room, followed by two neatly presented double rooms.

The final bedroom is a twin, perfect for children or friends sharing.

The family bathroom is fitted with a bath and a walk-in shower, providing a choice of how to prepare for each day. Outside, the garden has a patio area with plenty of furniture and a sunshade umbrella, great for eating and drinking in the garden on a sunny day.

There is also a wicker lounger further up the garden with another table and extra garden chairs.

There's a small wildlife pond at the bottom of the garden which is fenced off with 2 gates.

The smaller gate will be padlocked and the bigger gate has a wooden latch high up out of young children's reach.

This is a nice place to sit and relax and enjoy watching out for dragonflies, frogs and listening to the birds, or just wind down after a busy day exploring.

MARGATE

Broadstairs 4 miles; Ramsgate 4 miles; Canterbury 15 miles; Whitstable 15 miles.

Margate, a seaside holiday resort set on the east coast of Kent, has undergone much renovation, and boasts the new Turner Contemporary gallery. This historic seaside town, with its Theatre Royal dating back to 1787, offers entertainment for everyone, from fishing and golf to beaches and amusements. You can wander along the Margate Harbour Arm and Old Town to browse artists' studios, relax in one of the many bars or restaurants or hire a bike. For the more adventurous there is a Turner and Dickens walk taking you to Broadstairs four miles away. The Shell Grotto, with its 2000 square feet of winding underground passages, delights visitors while the Hornby Visitor Centre brings back the nostalgia of Britain's best loved toys. Dreamland is also worth exploring with any little ones or those in search of old fashioned fun, with its traditional seaside attractions and vintage fairground. Margate is a lovely coastal town retaining its history but offering up-to-date entertainment for all ages with a variety of interests.
