Relaxing
We enjoyed our stay in this extremely clean 3 bedroom property. The seaside was a few minutes away and the town was lovely. The people there are welcoming andbit was exactly what we expected it to be: a home away from home. The owner was extremely helpful. We travelled to other beaches nearby- Broadstairs being our favourite. Good times!

Spent 3 days visiting family. House was in great location within walking distance of all the shops and restaurants. Parking wasn't the easiest and don't bring a big car as street very narrow. Loved our first time in Whitstable, will be back

The house is beautiful, exactly as pictured and very comfortable. The location is perfect and easy walking distance to all the best parts of town. Will definitely stay here again next time we visit.
