Located in the charming town of Whitstable, Kent, this inviting property is ideal for couples and families seeking a relaxing getaway. It comfortably accommodates up to four guests and is conveniently situated within walking distance of the town's vibrant high street and the renowned Harbour Street. Visitors can explore a delightful assortment of independent shops offering unique clothing, gifts, books, and homeware. Additionally, the area features a variety of specialty food shops, perfect for those who prefer to cook, as well as an impressive selection of restaurants, gastropubs, and cafes, many of which are dog-friendly. The nearby beach, which stretches around the bay to the picturesque village of Tankerton, adds to the allure, complete with colorful beach huts lining the shoreline.
The interior of the cottage boasts a welcoming open-plan lounge/diner that invites guests to relax and unwind. The lounge area, located at the front, is equipped with comfortable seating, a gas fireplace, a DAB radio, and a Smart TV featuring Netflix. Beyond the lounge, the dining area is bathed in natural light and features a large table alongside a cozy wood burner, creating an inviting atmosphere for meals. The galley-style kitchen, situated at the rear, is fully equipped with modern appliances, including an oven, hob, Nespresso machine, microwave, fridge/freezer, dishwasher, and washing machine, ensuring guests have everything they need for a convenient stay. A ground-floor bathroom with a shower over bath and WC completes the layout of the main living area.
Accessed by steep, cottage-style wooden stairs, the first floor of the property features two charming double bedrooms, each showcasing attractive original details. A further set of narrow stairs leads to the converted attic space, which serves as a bright twin room, complete with a Smart TV and Netflix. However, guests should be aware that this room has a sloping ceiling and reduced head height, and it does not have a door, as the stairs open directly into the loft area. This unique layout provides a cozy and intimate sleeping arrangement while maintaining the cottage's character.
Outside, the property offers an enclosed garden featuring a decked seating area with patio furniture, perfect for enjoying alfresco meals or drinks in the fresh air. A secure gate at the end of the garden allows guests to bring bikes for exploring the surrounding areas. While parking is available for free in the conservation area, spaces can be limited, especially during busy periods. Guests may need to walk a short distance to find parking near the station, but the overall charm and amenities of Whitstable make this cottage an excellent choice for a memorable holiday in the South of England.
