  • "Cottage is ideally situated with a corner shop 50 feet away,the beach is just around the corner (which the dog loved) and the main town was a short stroll away."

    The welcome pack was indeed most welcome after travelling from Margate. The cottage was clean and tidy. There were brochures inside one of the draws which we did read and some board games of which we indulged. All in all it was a lovely 4 days away in a lovely place

  • "The property was in a great location with the beach at the end of the road, I never had any issues parking close by either."

    It was comfortable and cosy and there was a lovely welcome pack. Beds were great and I would book again if in the area. There is also a handy shop close by and it was lovely and quiet in the street , the only thing to note was no freezer that is in the description but that was no issue for us.

  • "Seashell cottage is in a good location near a dog friendly beach and was spotlessly clean & tidy."

    The description is inaccurate as there is a fridge not fridge/freezer. Also, the lounge is very small & with a galley kitchen, it is not really suitable for 4 adults.
