Charming original fisherman’s cottage on Dungeness Beach

Being one of the original fishermen’s cottages on Dungeness, Seaview Cottage has been lovingly restored to cater for modern needs yet still maintain it’s old charm with the original wood panelled interior throughout. It is perfectly situated with sea views to the front and the wild shingle beach known as The Desert of England all around you. The famous RHDR miniature steam railway runs just a few strides from your front door and the Dungeness National Nature Reserve stretches out behind you.

The whole of Dungeness is registered as a National nature reserve and is unofficially recognised as the only desert in the UK. Popular attractions are the RNLI lifeboat station just opposite the cottage, The Old Lighthouse and of course the RHDR steam railway. Derek Jarman’s Prospect Cottage and it’s famous garden are a short stroll. Highly recommended are the Snack Shack at Dungeness Fish Hut serving freshly cooked local fish and the Pilot inn serving their famous fish and chips. Free parking for two cars is available at the property. A coastal bus service operates from outside the Pilot Inn. The RHDR steam railway runs from Dungeness to Hythe.

What a lovely place

We stayed for a couple of nights as a getaway to the mad place called Dungeness and really enjoyed it. The cottage was well equipped and comfortable, the owner really communicated well before and the location was spot on.

Perfect

I can't fault anything! The location of Seaview is delightful - such fun watching the little trains pass by the front door - with all the delights and wonders of Dungeness within very easy reach. The cottage is very comfortably furnished and equipped and was absolutely spotlessly clean! Perfect is the only word needed to describe it.
