  • "We found the property very clean and comfortable."

    It was situated in a quiet spot. The owner welcomed us with a food hamper which was unexpected and very generous. However the only down side were the showers, the en suite was too small and the showers were temperamental, going hot and cold, possibly due to the boiler. We would recommend that electric showers are fitted as we found the current ones unsafe.

  • "This Lodge is in a lovely, very rural location but it has good access to all main routes covering Canterbury, the N & NE Kent coast."

    We found it to be a very comfortable & well equipped with good quality bedding & towels and plenty of hot water. Fans were provided for when it was hot but as it got colder it was easy to heat so felt very cosy. The only thing to note is that the bedrooms are very small, they had plenty of wardrobe space but floor space was very limited, especially around the bed in the second room. There is a nice outside space with seating provided which unfortunately due to the weather we were unable to make use of. There was good safe parking but not right outside the property. The whole development looked neat and well cared for and we had a good weeks holiday.

  • "Immaculately presented very clean and very well appointed lodge in a quiet location."

    Very comfortable for a very relaxing stay. A wonderful welcome pack was provided which is probably the best welcome pack we’ve had over many years of renting holiday cottages.

  • "Good location and nice property,liked the extras."

    Was a bit surprised to no washing machine,but had a dish washer,which we never use.As we pack as light as possible we always do washing when away.We had to go and buy a clothes airer and wash bits by hand.Did find the ensuite shower quite cramped,and smallest bed to small.It is an extremely hot property,and was thankful for the fans provided.There was a problem most evenings and a couple of times in early hours of morning ( 4.50 am) we was woke up by nearby dogs howling and barking !! Also the the internet needed rebooting 7 to 8 times every evening,which was a bit annoying.

  • "The lodge was super clean and the welcome goodies was extremely thoughtful."

    It's set in a beautiful setting too. I gave 4 instead of 5 for comfort, only because my husband and I are quite small but found that the second bed which we had to use because the master room was used by my disabled friend, was a little small. I understand that there isn't much you can do about it given the room. I would still recommend the lodge to friends and have already done so.

  • "Excellent property in a quiet location but conveniently located for easy access to the facilities which Whitstable had to offer."

    Particularly impressed with the welcome pack. David and Bridget contacted us in person a week or so before our arrival to explain how to find the property and tell us the eateries and shops in the area which was most useful. The property is really well located to access the attractions in Kent with places such as Leeds Castle, Canterbury, Dover Castle, Herne Bay and Margate to name but a few, all being in an easy driving distance on good roads. Would certainly look to use this property again if we were to holiday in the area in the future. Thanks for being a big part in a great stay.

    The beds were comfortable, lots of towels and a really well equipped kitchen. The welcome pack was the best we have ever had, five star. The decking and outside of lodge could do with painting. Couldn't go for a walk from the lodge as the country lanes were to dangerous but could get to places in the car fairly quickly. Had a nice relaxing holiday.

The property

Seasalter 3.1 miles.

Set in the rural village of Graveney, 4 Country View Park offers the perfect base for a countryside retreat to the luscious green county of Kent.

Ideally situated within reaching distance of both the Kent Downs Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and the vibrant seaside town of Whitstable, this pretty ground-floor lodge is perfectly suited to a couple or a group of four.

Keep warm from the heat of the classic electric fire as you settle into the stylish Laura Ashley sofas, turning on the flat-screen TV and impressive Bose sound system that rests within the cheerful yellow sitting room.

Rustle up a hearty lunchtime snack in the charming kitchen, kitted out with all of the essentials for a stress-free self-catering stay, such as a sleek electric oven and a handy dishwasher, so there's no need to argue over who'll be doing the dishes.

Take a seat at the sociable dining table and wash down your delicious meal with a hot cup of coffee from the lovely coffee maker, or spend your afternoons basking in the sunshine out on the decking, before delighting in diner alfresco with a perfectly chilled bottle of champagne, all whilst admiring the incredible views of the rolling English countryside.

Discover two delightfully decorated double bedrooms to the back of the lodge, one benefiting from an airy en-suite shower room, whilst the other boasts an abundance of storage space.

Indulge in a relaxing soak in the family bathroom or enjoy a refreshing rinse under the shower, before getting ready for a fun-filled day of adventure.

Head to the nearby town of Whitstable and wander along the buzzing local crafts market, before heading down to the Tankerton Beach to see the colourful beach huts that line the soft white sands.

Treat yourself to an evening of wining and dining at one of the popular seafood restaurants in the area or stop by the local fish market for some fresh ingredients ahead of a quiet night indoors.

Travel deep into the Kent Downs and uncover breath-taking vistas and miles of unspoiled lands, or head into the historical city of Canterbury for a tour of the grand Canterbury Cathedral and a tour of the imposing ruins of St Augustine's Abbey.

Experience an animal encounter like never before at Joe's Bows Falconry, before heading off to the enchanting Druidstone Park for a walk through the wonderous woodland.

For an unforgettable holiday to Kent, stay at 4 Country View Park.

About the location

SEASALTER

Whitstable 2 miles; Herne Bay 6 miles; Canterbury 5 miles; Faversham 5 miles; Westgate-on-Sea 10 miles.

Seasalter is a pretty village located by the sea on the north coast of Kent, between the towns of Whitstable and Faversham. The beach at Seasalter is mainly shingle and sand and therefore quieter than the more sandy bays at Westgate-on-Sea which is just along the coast. Seasalter Sailing Club, which has a clubhouse on Faversham Road, hosts catamaran boats which race on the River Swale Estuary, and there is also a private Water Ski Club with launch ramp. The Sportsman is a very popular pub and restaurant, earning a Michelin-star in 2008, so if you are celebrating a special event while visiting Seasalter this offers a mouthwatering menu, just make sure to book in advance. Public transport is very well covered in this village with regular buses to Canterbury, Whitstable and Faversham, each place offering visitors a day full of interest. Canterbury is ideal for a day exploring historic houses, taking walks or boat trips along the river, visiting a museum or two, a theatre evening or just enjoying a browse around the shops. A little less well known is that in Canterbury The Spitfire Ground is home to Kent County Cricket Club, and as well as cricket hosts other events during the year, so if a day of "leather on willow" is just for you or maybe a music event is more your scene, look to see what is on during your stay. Whitstable is a quaint coastal town, with cobbled streets, quirky shops and a well -visited fishing harbour where you can buy fish straight off of the boats, and if you want something to wash it down with, then take a trip to Faversham where you can take a guided tour around Shepherd Neame, Britain's oldest brewery dating back to 1698 and select a bottle to take home. After all the tours and sampling you may feel a day of walks and beachcombing could be just what you need, so pack a picnic and with a beach towel and a hat to shield the sun, make for the beach at Seasalter and enjoy the sound of the waves and the scent of the sea!
