Seaside Cabin with Courtyard - Whitstable
I booked Mia and Paul’s property for my son, his wife and newborn daughter as a birthday treat. They were both thrilled with the accommodation saying it was beautifully furnished and spotlessly clean and had a wonderful weekend exploring Tankerton and Whitstable in glorious sunshine. They appreciated the little extra welcome pack and flexible time of leaving which was so helpful with a little one. They are looking forward to returning again soon and wouldn’t hesitate in recommending this property. Thanks Mia and Paul for making them so welcome.

Seasalter Beach Chalet.
The chalet is as described- very pleasant with a beautiful view. The place is very clean and cosy. We were a little unfortunate for the chalet next door being built - meaning noisy building works and radio throughout the bank holiday weekend. We’d escaped London for peace and quiet - which we found when the building works stopped. I expect that this will carry on throughout the summer, possibly longer. Otherwise very pleasant indeed.

Chill at the cosy Fisherman's Cottage by the Sea
We had a great time at Amanda’s place! The location is great! So close to the coast and so close to the all the restaurants and shops (5 min walk). Windy’s cafe was great and we went 3 mornings in a row! There are a few paid car parks nearby and also free parking on Nelson Road if you can find a spot! Also, we loved the bath tub!!

Top Floor Flat, 1 min from the beach!
Great place to stay for a few days for myself and teen daughter. Great location and easy to nip back to drop off beach stuff (only a min away). Familiar and regular visitor to whitstable so was aware how convenient its location was. The only improvement would be bedding for the sofa bed (we improvised) and I think others may have mentioned this. Otherwise it was perfect, quiet, comfortable, well located and easy to access.

Fisherman's cottage in the heart of Whitstable
We stayed in this cottage over the weekend and it was perfect. It felt like a home away from home. The location is fantastic as you're less than 5 minutes from the beach and shops and restaurants. Whitstable is a great costal town too with much to offer. I recommend going to Whitstable and staying in this cottage. It has everything you need. Sue is a great host too, being attentive, informative and very helpful. We would like to come back. Thanks Sue

Quiet hideaway near the beach, with a garden sauna
Such a good spot for a weekend away! Room is well designed, bed very comfortable, bathroom super clean and modern, and the tea, coffee and milk were a nice touch! The gardens surrounding the barn are beautiful, location easy to find and ample parking. It’s a 10 minute walk into the centre of town where we enjoyed oysters, the beach, and some great pubs with live music. We also walked and played tennis at the local courts, also 10 mins walk away. We enjoyed dinner at The Sportsman pub, and Claire and Duncan gave us a taxi number to get us there and back.

The Whitstable Pearl - a modern holiday studio
Comfortable studio flat with all necessary facilities provided. Great host who was very responsive and provided clear instructions. The location was ideal - easy walk to the town centre shops and restaurants and also to the seafront with pubs and oyster bars. Good value as well

House with sea views next to the beach!
Second stay at the property and we hope to repeat again next year. Lovely location and accommodation.
