Pet-friendly vacation rentals in Southend-on-Sea

Thank you Sophie, the house felt like a home. The books, the toys, the rooms, the garden an added bonus for the little people. “but why can’t we stay longer” asked grandchild. Appreciated the earlier check in, and thank you for your flexibility and understanding with our car problems.

Amazing house in a beautiful, quiet location whilst still being convenient for Faversham/Canterbury. So much space for a big group both inside and outside in the lovely gardens. Les is a fantastic host and very helpful and hospitable.

This was our third stay in Whitstable and we had again a very relaxing time. Fleur’s house is very nice, full of light, well located, quiet and we had everything we needed.

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Slip Cottage. Great communication from Steve throughout and perfect location for beach, restaurants, etc. Literally just off the main street but still quiet. Lovely touches like providing handwash and bubble bath! Lots of towels and toilet roll also. Highly recommend staying here.

We had a quick but lovely stay. The house is super cute and cozy and well located. Karen and her family were very friendly and made us feel at home. We are definitely coming back next year.

Fantastic stay with my family. We have outgrown a caravan holiday and this was absolutely perfect for us. Private but with neighbours. Very relaxing. Wonderful to have a fully functional kitchen with all you need to cook breakfast, lunch or dinner! Hidden treasure!

We had a relaxing stay in Julie's cottage, which had everything we needed and a bonus of two bathrooms. The kids enjoyed the toys and the garden. It is really peaceful at night and nearby to the harbour and town so we could walk everywhere and visit the local restaurants and pubs, which were great. Nice lido and playground for children and we recommend taking the harbour ferry to East Mersea. A lovely stay, thankyou.

We have stayed at Gills cottage 4 times now and it never disappoints. It’s in the perfect location for Whitstable Town Centre and the beach. We would absolutely recommend this cottage to everyone.

Lovely place with great facilities and Wendy was so nice and welcoming.

Nice and relaxing place. Very well equipped especially the kitchen area. Welcoming big basket, even milk and butter in the fridge and ice cream. A little bit more cleaning needed and carpets especially. But a great ans beautiful place to stay, very friendly and communicative hosts.

Had the best two nights at Tracy’s home from home. Was everything she had described, very comfortable I had the best two nights sleep. Close to the beach and you can see the sea from the van. Thank you I will be back 😊

A really lovely place to stay. Peaceful, spacious and great value. Lots of parking and amenities. Only wish we’d stayed longer!

Paulina went above and beyond make sure the caravan had all essentials. The caravan was clean and tidy, it felt homely. Perfectly situated by all amenities. Would definitely visit again

We had a lovely stay at Dom’s place. The location is perfect for a couple of days’ break from London, especially if - like us - you don’t drive; it is just a short distance from the station and for a 40 minute journey from zone 1, feels a world away. Dom was very accommodating, especially as we brought our 3 month old baby. The baby enjoyed his first ever swim in the lovely warm pool! And the rest of the amenities/ the hut itself are equally excellent. Would also highly recommend a trip to the Samuel Palmer pub for a pint of locally brewed ale, and the Mount Vineyard for some excellent wines, both of which are a short walk from the hut. Would definitely stay again, thanks Dom!

This was our second visit to the Lighthouse and it still is an amazing place, from the panoramic sea views to a lovely warm inviting home. A dip in the pool before breakfast, sitting with a coffee watching the seascape, as far as Essex and beyond, sunsets and so much more. I will make the same comment as I did last, this goes for the whole of our party across 3 generations and the dogs, the only bad thing about the Lighthouse is having to leave. Hopefully this will not be our last visit.

David is a fantastic host, always very responsive and helpful, answered all my questions. We felt right at home, and will definitely return in the future!!

Vincent was extremely helpful with anything we needed to know and responded very quickly. the place was very unique with so much detail. even though it's end of his garden it did not feel like that as has been made to be very private. the jacuzzi was lovely with the fairy lights around it. the bottom bunk of the bed was so cozy and the tv in there made it even more enjoyable. and could even have a curtain round it. didn't want to get of bed 😅 also the bathroom had bird noices when you went in there which was a nice touch.

Jason’s place was wonderful for our little family and super close to old town and new town. Sara’s was great for brunch Sunday morning and the Library playground and library were great for my little one on Saturday.

Lovely little hose a stones throw from the beach

Lovely home from home. Was very clean, easy to check in, plenty of home comforts and lovely hosts. Excellent location too. Would recommend and stay again!

Lovely stay, very nice accommodation and comfortable beds. Would highly recommend

Lovely little house. Duncan made it very welcoming and even left some things out for the dog. We had a lovely 3 night stay and were very comfortable. Thank you

Loved our stay here. Beautiful place, great hosts always very responsive. The lodge was very well equipped with everything you need and more. Unique, peaceful, wonderful. We will be back!!

It was very homely and all the furnishing are top quality compared to most other air bnb and we just felt very at home and comfortable. I’ll be staying again when I’m in Leigh on sea
