Excellent in every respect!

We had a wonderful two weeks holiday in this very well presented apartment. Situated in a stunning location, very well suited for walking, the beach and exploring the lovely country side. The apartment is very well equipped with attention to detail, clean and quiet. The owners are very friendly and helpful. We can recommend this accommodation without any hesitation at all to people who appreciate quality. Nelleke, Cor.

Perfect equipped apartment and good service

Well located apartment with luxurious furniture, nice equipment and a wonderful view at the sea. There was a good service and helpfulness in advance and throughout the whole week with lots of kind advice and many tips. The location is quiet with lots of opportunities to explore the british countryside by foot or visit cities like cantebrury by car. All in all the accomodation leaves nothing to be desired!

Just Marvelous!

We had a fantastic stay at Calais View. When we arrived, Tim was there to meet us and made us feel welcome right from the beginning. The flat was impeccably clean. Walking in through French windows you enter the lounge, which is furnished to the highest standards and very cosy with its warm creamy colours. You immediately feel at home. In the back of the ground floor there is the large and very well-equipped kitchen. Upon arrival we were offered a welcome basket with lots of nice goodies in it. How very attentive! Thanks a lot, Jenny and Tim. The bedroom on the upper floor belongs to the nicest and cosiest we've ever had. Jenny and Tim put so much effort and care into it to make you feel at ease. Not to forget the views of course. Youn wake up in the mornings and right from your pillow you have the most stunning views through the bay window across the Channel to France. So relaxing to sit up in bed with a nice cup of tea and watching the ferry boats pass by. The same goes for the very pretty and well-kept terrace outside the lounge, which also offers spectacular views. The house is right on the coastal footpath from which you have beautiful walks to Dover (make sure you stop by at Mrs. Knott's tearoom in the lighthouse!!) and towards Deal (you shouldn't miss Walmer Castle with its beautiful gardens, where Wellington spent a lot of his time and where he died). We can also highly recommend the walk from Folkstone to Dover, Sandwich and of course Canterbury. Just marvelous!

A truly great experience.

We were met by the very friendly and delightful proud owner, Jennifer. She showed us around and invited us to just relax and enjoy our stay. The views over the Channel are inspiring, as is the bay itself. There are many coastal walks and a terrific pub on the beach. The property itself is first class, comfortable lounge, spacious kitchen and roomy bedroom. The patio was hard to leave even when it got cold. This is a quality property looked after by people who care about it. Highly recommend.

Beautiful apartment

Stunning apartment, beautifully decorated and clean throughout and the views are just amazing. Didn't want to go home - could have definitely stayed for longer. The apartment has everything you need and more - the owners have obviously put a lot of thought into making this a home from home and as comfortable as possible for guests. The owners were so friendly, provided lots of local information and the welcome pack was very much appreciated - a really nice touch.

What a lovely pastoral sea view experience we had! The house itself is lovely with emphasis on the smallest details - so homely and cosy :) Jenny and Tim were so kind, warm and helpful. The views from the bedroom and the balcony is priceless. On clear days, you can actually see some French land :) We hope to come back again. Highly recommended!

Calais View is one of the nicest holiday rentals that we have ever stayed in and we were delighted to make a return visit last week. The property is in a great location and the views are spectacular, it is stylish and comfortable with high quality fixtures and fittings, lots of thoughtful touches and every home comfort.

A fantastic place, everything you could want and more. Beautiful location, beautiful apartment and the friendliest hosts you could wish for, nothing is too much trouble and the attention to detail in the apartment is one of the best we have come across. If you are worried about Covid then don’t be, this is the most thorough Covid secure accommodation you could ask for. Thank you so much Tim and Jenny for a fantastic holiday. Jayne and Mark.

Calais View was absolutely perfect. From the moment we booked Jenny and Tim were the perfect hosts, the apartment is superbly located, very tastefully decorated and is immaculate - really cannot recommend it highly enough. The attention to detail on everything from pre-arrival info to new changes that have had to be brought in due to Covid is just incredible. We already can't wait to return!

A break from reality

We decided to take a working break away and base ourselves at the Calais View apartment for a week. What a great place, we took cliff walks, time on the beach, dinners in and out and just sitting back and admiring the view. It was perfect. One of the best locations possible and a very high quality apartment. Jenny and Tim were very good hosts and took extra care to make sure everything was perfect. The internet works very well and easily supported our constant video calls and email demands. We’ll be back as soon as we can!
