About this property

Ramsgate Retreats | Latimer House, families, big birthdays, golf, parking, 6-14

Ramsgate Retreats | Latimer House is a lovely large Georgian grade 11 listed town house, with 2 nearby parking spaces. The house has 6 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms and sleeps 6 -14 people. Perfect for holidays, celebrations, multi-generational families or friends. We also host retreats for parties both privately and for corporates. A great place to celebrate or bond with loved ones and or colleagues .

It Includes a gorgeous stylish & separate self contained apartment for 2, located under the main house, which is ideal for anyone who enjoys a little extra privacy. (It also has a separate entrance.) For larger groups we can arrange extra accommodation within a 2 minute walk.

Parking is free on the street, in addition we have 2 reserved parking spaces for our guests very near by. There is also plenty of free parking a few minutes walk away.

In the main house there is a kitchen with 2 ovens, large fridge, microwave and cafetière, plus lots of pots and pans. The kitchen is open plan to the large dining room which has a table that seats 14, (splits 12+2) and is great for meals or games. Down the hall is a cloakroom and a utility room which has a large fridge for drinks, a washing machine and drier. . There is a sitting room on the next level with a balcony and lovely view of the sea and Van Gogh Spencer Square.
Also on this floor are bedrooms 2 (Tiger - 2 singles) and Bedroom 3 (pelican: 1 single, 1 double).
The next floor has bedroom 4 (Butterfly - bunk double and single) a shower room next to it and down the hall bedroom 5 (master - superking bed) with dressing room and ensuite. Next up to the attic is bedroom 6 (pineapple - 1 single, 1 double). There is a large bathroom next door. Under the house is the afore mentioned apartment containing a double bedroom (1- Flamingo), an ensuite bathroom, an orange kitchen and open plan sitting room. There is a pretty (south west facing ) sunny courtyard garden, with a table for 14 and a bbq, perfect for outside meals or a pre-dinner drink after a day on the beach.

The house is in a fantastic location. Very near to the Royal Harbour, beaches, restaurants and shops. There are 3 tennis courts opposite available for rent. Plenty of nice pubs and nice restaurants in walking distance. Great walks (including the Viking trail), sailing, fishing, surfing, cycling. This is an ideal place to stay for your golfing holiday. Kent has some of the best golf courses in the country including the Open venue in 2021, Royal St George's. Also nearby are The Royal Cinque Ports Golf Club, Prince's Golf Club and North Foreland Golf Club

The house is Ideal for friends and families, especially multi-generations of family holidaying together. Just be aware there are lots of stairs (it is a tall town house) so not suitable for anyone with walking difficulties.

The house is particularly popular for big birthdays and other family celebrations. We host loads of classy hen weekends. Equally suitable for groups of friends enjoying a break away - golf trips, walkers, book clubs, reunions. There is something for everyone, all ages. As there is plenty of space no one is on top of each other. There is lots to do within 10 minute walk.

Ramsgate’s Royal Harbour is a very short walk away and is really pretty. Full of cafe’s, restaurants. Next doors Addington Street has several nice independent shops, bars, cafes and restaurants. There is a corner shop and Waitrose a short walk away as well as a fabulous bakery. We provide a list of places, walks, ideas of what to do during your stay.

We can also recommend local caterers and restaurants who can bring the food to you and clear up after you if you want the 'restaurant from home' experience.
Deanna the host has been hosting for 19 years at Latimer house and loves helping people make the most of their stay.

The house is beautiful and very well located. All of the rooms had their individual charm and 14 of us stayed here very comfortably. The house is very well equipped with everything you’d need to cook, clean, entertain. It’s a short walk to the harbour with lots of nice walks and an excellent choice of pubs/restaurants. Deanna was the perfect host. Super warm, friendly and generous! We hope to visit again!

Great location - helpful host

This house was great for our family Easter holiday with 13 people and 2 dogs! We were lucky to have glorious weather as there was so much to do, lovely walks to broad stairs, paddle boarding in the sea and lots of playing in the sand. If you’re a big group and this house is available then book it, you won’t be disappointed!

Great house, perfect location

Me and a group of friends stayed here for a weekend of RnR by the sea. The house is great, great space for entertaining, comfortable and ideal location within walking distance of the sea front and town centre which offers an array of pubs and restaurants. Short drive from the station. Deanna was very helpful with suggestions of things to do and very easily contactable to arrange checkouts and arrival etc.
