Vacation rentals with a fireplace in Kingsdown

We stayed at Fox Barn over the May half term and, considering it was the school holidays, it was incredibly good value for money. Howard was very responsive to any queries we had and provided us with a great list of things to do and places to eat prior to us travelling down. We found Fox Barn to be perfect for our needs for a week. We were lucky with the weather but the location is absolutely perfect for exploring all that the Kent coastline has to offer. We enjoyed trips to Margate, Broadstairs, Botany Bay and Deal which are all within an hours drive and the kids loved the sandy beaches (particularly at Broadstairs). We also enjoyed Wingham Wildlife Park and Betteshanger Park, riding the mountain bike trails, as well doing some Park Run tourism at Pegwell Bay. For fans of the outdoors there really is so much to do. Fox Barn itself is a wonderful space with excellent size bedrooms, kitchen and a great dining area which we used as a family most mornings. We would happily visit again!

Beautiful setting. Quirky little cottage and lots of games, books and dvds provided for the evenings. Kids loved the trainset!! Claire was very prompt at responding, we had a power cut late sat night so couldn't pack for the next days checkout in the dark and Claire offered a later checkout at no extra cost which was a huge help. Thank you x

Lovely 1 night stay for a friend’s 40th birthday celebration! Gorgeous accommodation - spacious but with a cosy cottage feel for our games night and the hot tub was a fab addition! Lisa was super helpful and responsive to my messages when planning our stay and also while we were there too. We all felt very welcome and really enjoyed our ‘short but sweet’ time at the barn - thank you!

Fantastic historic cottage in a perfect spot to explore Rye...situated by the stunning church, close to the cannons you can soak up the history.

Johns place was quite spacious, very clean and with nice outdoor areas. We appreciated his attention to detail. There is a nice pub close by and convenient bus stops for Cambridge or Folkstone. You won’t be disappointed!!

We often return to Deal and are used to compromising on one or two aspects to have such a wonderful location. There was no compromise here. The sun room to the lovely walled garden was a particular treat.

Fantastic house in a brilliant location, everything walkable including the station if you are arriving by rail. Pippa is extremely accommodating, responding to a query in minutes, but really everything you need to know about the house and area is in the substantial info pack. Absolutely recommend!

This is such a lovely apartment, in the best location in Broadstairs. We walked everywhere and the hosts sent us some helpful instructions about restaurants and other sights we might like to see. Highly recommend!

It was a lovely apartment, beautifully clean, and with all the amenities we needed. Low ceilings in one bedroom and doorways, but you can tell that from the photos. A useful thing to know is that the two bedrooms are railroad style; in order to reach the double bedroom you have to pass through the two twin rooms (they're separated by the dressing room, but the stairway is in one room and accessible only through that room). This might not be a problem for a family, but we were adult friends sharing a place, and if we'd known that one room would have no privacy, we'd have made different plans. Otherwise, everything about this stay was perfect, and I give it five stars for that. Thank you!

Absolutely beautiful stay in Chris's homely flat right by the sea. Loved our stay, definitely recommend and would come back. Thankyou

Great price for a great flat in a great location. Really clean and about 20 steps from the beach front! Couldn’t fault it. Host left us drinks in the mini fridge which was nice. Reclining sofa and electric bed. Only thing i thought was missing was an ice tray!

Spent a wonderful weekend here- the apartment is beautiful, very tasteful and stylish with everything you need. Easy to park and walking distance to everything Margate has to offer. Will definitely stay again!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! Lovely and peaceful, beautiful decor and a great base for exploring the local area. The sea view and sunsets were wonderful - we'd highly recommend!

This is an incredible house and communication with Amy was first class I can not recommend more highly

We had an amazing time staying here. The hosts were amazing, friendly, welcoming and very helpful. They sent us clear instructions for our stay and local shops and restaurants immediately following booking. Everything in the accommodation matched the description and photos, and was a lovely place to stay. The price was extremely good considering everything provided. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and wouldn’t hesitate to rebook in future

Our second time staying at Des' place and we will be back in future! Spacious, clean and within walking distance to the town and beach. We love it here! Thank you for being such a helpful and responsive host.

Lovely place to stay!!! We will be back :-)

We spent a lovely Christmas here and had everything we could possibly need. The location is perfect, endless sea views and plenty of places to walk to with the dogs. The apartments are well stocked with everything needed to cook a beautiful Christmas dinner and Anthony even provided us with lovely Christmas trees. It felt like a home away from home. Anthony kindly let us check-in early and check-out late which helped us truly relax. This was our second time staying and won’t be our last!

We had a great Christmas. The house is a much bigger then the photos. Plenty of space for a large family and more then enough hot water for all of us!! The house is very clean, enough pots, pans plates etc. Lovely setting, loved the little church, which is open for visiters only, seeped in history.

Excellent family stay at L'Ecume des Jours. House full of charm, fully equipped and very peaceful. Very good bedding, very bright ground floor, and pleasant. Beautiful playroom for the little ones. Walks directly accessible when leaving the garden. Very attentive owner. We will come back!

We really enjoyed our stay here. The house felt really homely, the space is bigger than it even looks on the pictures and it was perfect for the 6 of us. The beach was great for walking the dogs at low tide. You need to drive to places around and the host left a very detailed manual on what is worth a visit nearby. I wish we'd packed our passports to be able to hop over to mainland Europe.

We had a lovely relaxing stay at this peaceful bungalow. Everything we needed was provided at a very high standard. This was our send visit and we will be back.

Great stay at Françoise and Xavier's, the house is really very well equipped, as described. Great for a stay for families or friends. Hosts were very flexible with check-in and check-out times, which was greatly appreciated. To be booked without hesitating!

family stay for Christmas All couples had their independence for the night Big beds, individual bathrooms The large stay allowed meals and moments of pleasant sharing
