La Plage

A great place to stay!

Very comfortable and clean and well located. My only criticism would be to put a mirror in the double bedroom - at a height above the chest of drawers so that you can use it for dressing/makeup etc. There is a mirror now but it is hung so high that unless you at 6Ft plus you can’t use it!!!

House clean and tidy, cosy feeling right away, kitchen well equipped, and beds comfortable.

We really enjoyed our stay and all said we would rebook again as still so much to see and do in the area, a lot of places still closed till March. Nick Áine & Niamh Oxford

Ideal location.

Everything you want on your door step. Only let down was the shower.

Nice cottage in a great location Wir haben in diesem Häuschen drei entspannte Wochen verbracht.

Wir fanden es gemütlich, gut ausgestattet und sehr sauber. Die Lage ist so wie beschrieben: Lebhafte Straße vorm Haus, nette Geschäfte nebenan und das urige Sea Cafe gegenüber. Der Blick vom Bay Window auf den Strand - besonders in der Abendsonne - war für mich ein besonderes Highlight! Was uns nicht so gut gefallen hat, war der Hinterhof. Es gab relativ viel Baulärm drum herum und wir mussten uns den Platz mit den Mülltonnen teilen. Aber - so schlimm war es nun auch wieder nicht ... Parkprobleme, wie wir befürchtet hatten, gab es keine, Thanks to the owners!

2nd year here, will be booking again.

Brilliant location with easy free parking 2 minutes across a picturesque green from the beach.

Lovely upstairs Bay Window looking out to sea providing great sunrise views. Massively equipped, really comfortable and cleaned immaculately. You would not know they allow pets if that is a concern for you. Wonderful , relaxing vacation with lots of comfort. Thank you

We had a lovely time in this clean cosy cottage.

Everything we needed was included. It's in a perfect location with fab views, just 2 minutes walk to the beach. Definitely would recommend this holiday home!

Sauber und gemütlich super Ausblick auf den Strand Innenstadt mit Geschäften und Pubs alles schnell zu Fuß zu erreichen parken war kein Problem

Absolutely lovely for a winter Christmas break.

The decorations were delightful. Spotless, very warm and clear on information. So well equipped that we had everything to cook a full turkey dinner. The only quibble being that the kitchen sink drained too slowly so hard to get clean.

Lovely comfortable cottage in a great location.

Free parking was also available. Very clean on arrival and everything worked . Well stocked kitchen for pots , pans etc. If I'm being really nit picky, some black bin bags and a bit more loo roll would have been appreciated. We had a lovely stay . Thank you.

had a great stay with my disabled wife and her dog,her scooter just fitted through the front door.

went to deal with dog /very dog frendley in deal/ pub and offlincence next to cottage,choice of fish&chip shops down the road .we harderly left any rubbish as lots of bins on promanard by the beach.loved this cottege and hope to return.

We spent our second holiday in La Plage, travelling in from Germany.

We find the place welcoming, cosy and homely with a lot of old world charm. We are currently checking our personal calenders to determine when we can come back in the next spring - at the latest. We think that says it all. Thank you to the owners and managers of La Plage. Stan and Anne

We loved the cottage, and its location.

Cosy and spotlessly clean, and quite an art gallery! As others have commented, the little seating area in the front bedroom has a fabulous view to the sea. We were already planning to return sometime after our first few days here!

The cottage is brilliant for us and is close to family.

Great location. Good for walks. We will be returning for a 4th time next Summer (2025). Easy walking distance to Deal. Enough parking on the road around the corner. Lovely views especially from the front bedroom.

WE were very satisfied,everything you need was there and clean.

It is a spacious property.The beds were very comfortable. The first sleeping room was not so quiet because of The Main street. Very nice: The two armchairs near the windows! Deal ist a nice little Town.All you need you can find here. This was our third Holiday in The south east . Many interesting places you can find within a few miles.

Was a lovely cottage great location kitchen well equipped,outdoor space though small was quite a little sun trap.

only two things I would change bigger TV .also put the two chest of drawers into the dressing area giving the double bedroom more space We was lucky we went carnival week was so much going on fireworks were brilliant watched the carnival from bedroom walmer was very clean walmer castle worth a visit loved our holiday in the cottage and walmer

This was our second visit to La Plage which is a recommendation in itself.

The property looks small from the front but is much larger inside with large sitting area and dining area. The kitchen is clean, up to date and has all equipment you would need. The bedrooms are clean, beds really comfortable, and bathroom has all mod cons. The cottage is situated opposite the beach and has a wonderful outlook from upstairs. Free parking on the adjacent roads.

It was perfect location.

Straight across the road to the beach & bus stop, parked the car and didn't touch it all week. Great walks for the dog. Lastly, the beds were so comfy.

A very pleasant property.

Excellent location and peaceful. High standard of comfort and cleanliness . Parking was not an issue on the main road opposite the property at any time. Great panoramic view with the coast of France in the back ground, from the front bedroom's bay window, the 2 armchairs were very comfortable. Sykes telephone staff when booking were, as usual, excellent. Highly recommended. Another first for Sykes

The only thing I can fault is the shower it was hot but not powerful.

The kitchen is very well equiped. Seating and beds comfortable. Tv a bit small. Lovely to be so close to the sea. (My happy place) We had a problem with the heating and it was sorted by property manager Colin in hrs

We had a lovely week at La Plage.

Perfect home from home for our family of 4. The house was spacious and spotlessly clean. Kitchen well equipped. Beds comfy. Parking on the road opposite never a problem. We enjoyed people and wave watching through the front bedroom window, plenty of time on the beach, walks to Walmer and Deal Castles and day trips to the many sites, towns and beaches nearby. Sandwich, Broadstairs, Margate, Richborough, Reculver to name a few. Great week away. Would love to visit again.

We stayed for 5 weeks whilst a house purchase was finalising.

A super location, just across the road from the beach, with wonderful walks on the adjacent sea path to Deal in one direction & Kingsdown in the other. Not many locations where you get two castles on your doorstep, but you do at La Plage! Inside is well equipped, comfortable & very clean. The property manager was available when needed & very supportive. The view from the upstairs front window is quite something. The cottage is pet friendly & Bert the Lab also really enjoyed his stay by the beach. A good selection of local shops, pubs & restaurants are close by.

Was a great place to stay, clean fresh and accommadation contained all facilities needed.

Found it close to all locations on our break. Would choose this apartment again in the future. Thanks

Really nice cottage in a great location.

Virtually anything you need is a couple of minutes walk away. Would stay again!

My family & I felt we had booked the perfect place to stay at La Plage in Walmer, Deal.

So comfortable & right opposite the sea. A fabulous view. Quiet & yet surrounded by everything we needed. Flat & ideal for walking & perfectly placed for visiting the surrounding areas.

A well-equipped cottage with fantastic sea views.

We liked the atmosphere / interior decoration in the house a lot! We will definitely be back.

A comfortable,clean and welcoming cottage.

......great to come 'home' to after days out exploring locally or further afield.. La Plage is perfectly situated for seafront walks, places of historical interest and good hospitality venues.We especially enjoyed Dover Castle,Canterbury and the Kent&East Sussex Railway. Overall, an excellent holiday. The description and pictures provided by Sykes are a fair reflection of what this property has to offer.

We found the house spacious, comfortable and well-equipped, with excellent storage and a good location.

Watching the world go by from the upstairs seating area was very relaxing and the rear garden catches the afternoon sun. Really no issues at all but if I was going to be super picky, I would say it could do with a light refresh of the decor and the next size up of TV.

Third visit to this lovely property.

Great location and brilliant price. A couple of pieces of chipped crockery in the cupboard but bed linen and towels were great. Clean and tidy on arrival. Will hopefully visit again soon.

Lovely clean comfortable cottage with all amenities home from home,lovely views from upstairs bay window will defiantly book again thanks for all supportEileen and john Hart

Never stayed in such a well equipped cottage well done the owners thought of everything.

Especially in the kitchen.

A very clean, comfortable & well equipped, made our holiday very special.

Great location for Walmer/Deal beaches & shops, wonderful views from the front bedroom.

Great location, clean, nice views.

comfortable.

The property all in all is nice and spacious.

Have stayed here two times before. On all occasions have noticed distinct smell of urine near right hand sofa on entertaining house,Could be sofa or rug/ carpet. Did point this out before booking and assistant said it had been sorted.. Hasn't been unfortunately... Also, shower curtain is too long, easy to trip on it. The cottage is in a great position being across the road from the sea.

Down stairs could do with a coat of paint to brighten it up a bit, everywhere else was satisfactory.

Will definitely think of booking it again

Great location, very clean and a lovely stay.

The only criticism would be the dated decor and the sofa comfort and layout. They are quite dated and uncomfortable, and it’s a bit of a strain to see the telly from one sofa while we sat as a family to watch a film in the evening.

Delightful and spacious, very well equipped.

Some noise from busy road during the day, as we had to open windows on an exceptionally hot week.

THE PROPERTY WAS IDEAL FOR DEAL SO CONVENIENT AND VERY CLEAN LOVERY WALKS FROM THE FRONT DOOR WOULD RECOMMEND THIS TO STAY AT THE BUS STOP OUTSIDE THE FRONT DOOR WAS GREAT TO GO TO CANTERBURY AND TOWN KEVIN AND ANG

The house was beautifully clean - and perfectly situated by the beach.

Fab view from the upstairs front window. Parking for both our cars was easy and free - we always managed to find a space opposite the house. The back garden is secure and dog friendly, if you do not fancy crossing the road and taking advantage of the open grass spaces. Easy walks into Deal and to Walmer castle. Amazing number of cups, mugs. plenty of glasses, cutlery and cooking utensils. The only negative factor is the rather lame shower.

Overall we enjoyed our stay at La Plage, it was clean & tidy in a lovely location.

As other reviews have mentioned we spent most of our time at the house sitting in the window of the bedroom watching the world go by. Good to download one of the shipping traffic apps so you can identify any passing ships, visibility permitting! (we only had two clear days). Walmer and Deal are very nice for a wander around but don't expect any sandy beaches which seem to be rare in this part of the world, shingle all the way, tough going! There were a few downsides that took the shine off a little. It could really do with a bigger TV. The yard could use a spruce up, it's rather depressing in it's current state. We weren't fans of the mattresses (but understand everyone is different!) so spent most of the week playing musical beds! The shower holder/bracket/thingy is useless and needs attention. The road at the front is incredibly busy (though very few lorries thankfully), obviously not something the owner can do anything about but just pointing it out.

We had a lovely short break at La Plage on Walmer sea front.

It was so nice to be able to look out at the sea and the boats. A very relaxing stay with everything we needed close at hand and we enjoyed some nice walks along the beach.

Beautiful views and excellent location.

Cosy cottage with everything you need. Dog friendly with secure garden.

The cottage is deceptively large, comfortable, and well equipped.

Its position right opposite the beach is wonderful, and the views from the front bedroom are of endless fascination. Parking on surrounding roads was free of charge and we had no problem finding a space. Lots to do and see in the area and we had a most interesting holiday.

This property was exactly as it said on the tin.

Super clean,which is not always the case with properties that allow dogs.The kitchen was small but well equippped. The house was in a brilliant location for us, in walking distance from both Kingsdown and Deal, right on the seafront for dog walks and with good takeaways also in walking distance. Not to mention the people and dog friendly pub a few doors down. We had a lovely time thank you. The quilt on one of the single beds was poor quality and warmth compared to the other so maybe this could be replaced.

The cottage and location was perfect for bringing our dog.

Cosy, comfy cottage with a lovely private sitting out area at the back.

Really enjoyed our stay and had a restful time wandering from Walmer to Deal and visiting other Cinque Ports. Walmer Castle and gardens a particular treat.

This cottage is brilliantly located for exploring Kent.

It is comfortable but generally a bit worn and dated. Whilst decor is clearly subjective and a matter of opinion, some of the furniture was very worn. We found that we had most of what we needed for a two-week stay with a family of four, with one or two things notably absent (for example, having a washing machine was great, but there was no airer, just an outside washing line, and it rained most days, so drying clothing was challenging!). We had some difficulties with the front door lock that necessitated a locksmith being called out, and Sykes, Colin (who looks after the cottage) and the local neighbours couldn't have been friendlier and more helpful, which was much appreciated. Walmer and Deal are gorgeous, there is lots to do in the area and the cottage is brilliantly located for swimming, cycling and walking, and we had a very enjoyable stay. It does feel like the cottage has the potential to be so much more than it is currently.

Nice location cottage clean but could do with updating.

Walmer and Deal are nice seaside towns with lots of places to eat and drink in walking distance of cottage

Loved staying here me and my dog Tom had a nice holiday.

the house was very homely and the little garden was nice to sit out in .I would come back has I was comfortable it was like being in your own home

My 4th time staying here - very clean, comfortable and homely cottage.

The cottage is in a lovely position and very clean and lovely outlook from upstairs , but you are in the middle of a building site with works going on both sides.

With scaffolding front and back. The court yard is full of building debris and so is the front door so you have to be careful, you of your dog doesn’t get hit. So quite impossible to enjoy your morning coffee in the sun . Having to disappear all day to escape the noise. Would love to return when both sides have finished but it’s been a long time and and they tell me quite a few months left . So if some peace and quite and no one looking in your bedroom and bathroom window in the morning is what your looking for don’t book it until it’s all over .

We had a brilliant stay at La Plage cottage.

The house was extremely clean, cosy and well located in Walmer.

pleasant location near the beach and local shops had all you needed for a for a short break.

Great location, very clean and comfortable and very helpful owner

Nice location and very handy.

On a bus route. The place is old but very homely. I would revisit.

We had a good old fashioned holiday with our 6 year old grandson and our dog!

Not a computer game in sight. We played games and did puzzles of which there were a number of in the cottage. It was really cosy as the weather was rather wet although when the sun shone it was gorgeous upstairs in the front bedroom where the views out to see were great. It was a real home from home and spotlessly clean and had plenty of space. An ideal base to visit Dover Castle, Walmer Castle and Deal Castle, not mention the Hythe, Rother and Dymchurch Railway - just what a 6 year old loved. Perfect dog walks along the seafront - It was just what we wanted!!!!

Second time this year I have booked this cottage - absolutely love it.

Very clean, very homely, great location.

Comfortable accommodation with everything that you would need.

On a bus route with lovely walks along the promenade. Great to be able to sit upstairs overlooking the green and the sea sipping morning coffee or afternoon tea, especially if the weather is not so good.

Fabulous cottage, great location, homely and well equipped- we will be back!

!

The accommodation was brilliant.

Just loved La Plage and after over 50 years of visiting Deal (and surrounding areas) this has been the most comfortable, cosy, clean and well equipped accommodation I have stayed in to date. The view from the bedroom window was wonderful. The weather wasn't brilliant - to be expected at this time of year - but we saw a couple of beautiful sunrises and weather ranged from hot & sunny to gale force winds and rain. My great grandson spent many hours happily scootering along the prom or dodging the waves whatever the weather - sunny and serene or dark and dramatic. The local residents are very friendly and helpful. We walked, or used local buses (to visit places of interest in Walmer, Deal, Dover, Folkestone and Sandwich) and found it easy to get around and - icing on the cake - the restaurant at the end of the pier is open again! Had a lovely holiday and are looking forward to our next stay at La Plage.

Dismal and dark cottage.

Smells musty, due to old and dusty soft furnishings. A few small containers of milk were rank. No pegs, no laundry basket. I don't think that La Plague has been touched for the last twenty years, the paint work is yellowish. Signs of damp and cracks in plasterwork. This cottage does not deserve a 3 star rating by Sykes, 1 would be more appropriate. Finally, we felt we were being watched, as building at end of yard was owners garage, with glass doors looking in to the yard.

Local agent and owner both friendly, easy to contact and responded to a request quickly.

Where to start!

Comfortable, clean, great central location, owner next door. Very comfortable, cosy cottage, and we were able to take our pet dog. Sunny back courtyard with table and chairs. Deal itself is such a wonderful place, steeped in history. All amenities were close to hand. Shops, pubs, restaurants, cafe, bus stops, taxis, trains, bike hires etc. Deal also boasts its own micro climate. 3 weeks uninterrupted sunshine!

The view from cottage was amazing and the cottage was comfortable and spacious and felt so at home.

We have booked to go back in September this year.

Lovely comfortable cottage with fantastic sea view from upstairs.

Has everything you need, home from home. Secure garden for the dog too. Owner very pleasant and welcoming. Definately would return.

Fabulous position with stunning sea views from the front bedroom.

Excellent base for exploring East Kent.

Well positioned for walking the dog and early morning runs as the sea front path was just across the road.

About a brisk ten minute walk into Deal where there were plenty of shops, cafes, pubs and restaurants plus a train station. Good rail and bus links which enabled us to do linear walks and return on public transport with a tired dog. We enjoyed sitting in the sunny back yard, or upstairs in the bay window from where there was a super view out to sea and less traffic noise from the busy road. No problem parking as we always found a space near to the property. Very well equipped kitchen with a useful porch leading off it, ideal for dog basket and bowls. Upstairs was fine for just two of us as the bathroom was accessed through the rear bedroom but would be awkward for two couples. Ample storage space in both bedrooms.

Yes , I would like to say all of my family thoroughly enjoyed our stay at la plage, and so well equipped ,ex, from kitchen utensils, to all kitchen/bathroom , facilities and accessories, including essentials ,such as coffees,teas ,sugar etc.

. and such a lovely comfortable place to stay, enjoyed visiting the local deal/walmer castles , and the local town , just a few minutes away , again with all amenities , would also like to say thank you to Keith Anderson,our host for checking on us making sure we had everything we needed, such a nice friendly guy, very kind and thoughtful!! All the very best Keith! From all the Anderson family!!
