Newly Renovated Period Home in Conservation Area, Just a Short Walk to the Sea

Extensive renovations are now complete (July 2015) and this lovely period home by the sea, Heron House, is ready for holiday bookings. Our place offers guests a great central location in the heart of Whitstable's Conservation Area - just a hop and a skip to the beach and the high street. There's plenty of space (2 reception rooms, large kitchen/diner, 4 double bedrooms and 2 bathrooms), cosy corners, a small garden with patio and a garden room to enjoy.

Heron House is perfect for guests of all ages and we welcome pets. From couples to extended family groups, we offer a comfortable, classic period home-from-home with the benefits of WiFi, wood burner, extended kitchen/diner and private parking for one car.

The house itself is detached and offers a peaceful oasis between the bustling weekend crowds on the waterfront and high street. The interiors are full of Victorian character, all fully refreshed following recent full renovation, but with a modern twist. There is a newly extended kitchen/diner with breakfast bar and two sets of French doors leading out to the patio - a great space for entertaining with seating for up to 8 guests plus high chair. There are 2 double bedrooms and 2 with twin beds that can also be made up a double rooms, all with king sized beds. There are also 2 bathrooms, both with rolltop baths and shower facilities. In the evenings you can choose between two cosy lounges: the snug is open plan to the kitchen and offers seating for 4, an AGA woodburner and TV/DVD. Next door is the front lounge with seating for 5, a feature fireplace and larger TV/DVD.

Outside there is the all-important parking space for 1 car, a small secure garden with small lawn, patio dining area and access to the garden room. There is seating for 8 guests, tables and parasol, Weber BBQ and deckchair. The garden room offers further space to relax with a daybed and large beanbag.
