Cosy cottage in great beach side location

We had a lovely weekend. The cottage kept us warm and cosy in an evening of wet and windy weather, and the next day we were walking along the beach in the early autumn sunshine! Great location near the beach.

A comfortable cottage full of character. So close to sandgate beach (pebble and shingle) and an easy walk along the seafront right into folkestone (2 miles). We did have some communication issues initially but these were quickly sorted

Lovely cottage, exactly as shown and described. Everything we needed to feel comfortable for our short break was provided and my 3 year old grandson was thrilled with the games in the cupboard The only reason we scored it 4 out of 5 is that the interior of the well thought out renovated cottage needs some upkeep and the cleanliness left a little to be desired. It is literally across the road from Sandgate Beach (pebbles) which was very pleasantly busy with families whilst we were there with lots of kayaks/body boards/surf boards in use. It is true that there is some free parking on the road that runs along the beach but it was very busy and the time limit should you get a space is 2 hours. However, the cottage backs on to Castle Rock Car Park where tariffs are enforced between the hours of 8am and 6pm. The cost to park for 10 hours is 6.80.The buses that run along Sandgate High St take you into Folkestone Harbour or Dover in one direction and Hythe in the other. All in all a lovely property in a very convenient position.

Süßes englisches Häuschen

Daa Häuschen ist super gemütlich ubd liebevoll eingerichtet. Es ist alles da was man braucht und wir haben uns sofort wohlfühlt ! Die Lage ist wirklich super, nur dass der Strand nicht so badefreundlich ist wie gehofft. Für Kinder eher nicht zum Baden geeignet, da starke Brandung und Strömung und grober Kies der keinen Halt bietet. Aber ein paar Meter weiter Richtung Hafen wird's besser. Das Haus ist aber toll und kompensiert dafür. Wir kommen gerne wieder!

Schöne Lage - leider etwas unhygienisch

Das Cottage an sich ist sehr schön. Die alte Bausubstanz macht den Charme des Cottages aus. Die Lage am Meer perfekt. Wir hatten im Vorfeld auch sehr lieben Kontakt mit Fewo/den Vermietern. Leider mussten wir feststellen, dass das Cottage nicht wirklich geputzt wird. Bad und Gäste WC waren sauber, da gab es nichts zu meckern. Aber in der Küche war Schimmel am Silikon, die Mikrowelle hat innen einen roten Schmierrand und der Wasserkocher ist schmuddelig. Die Fenster, d.h. die Rahmen wurden scheinbar mehrere Jahre nicht geputzt. Bei den klimatischen Bedingungen führt das leider auch zu Schimmel. Was man an den Fensterrahmen sehen kann. Die Fußböden haben teilweise geklebt. Die Schränke in den Schlafzimmern sind leider mit verschiedenen Sachen so vollgestopft, dass man da nichts mehr unterbekommt. Es wirkte auch so, als ob da einfach die vergessenen oder liegen gelassenen Sachen hineingestellt wurden. Das Cottage wäre wirklich super - wenn mehr auf die Sauberkeit geachtet und die Schränke entrümpelt werden würde.

Lovely seaside cottage

We had a lovely stay in the little yellow cottage. Location was perfect for enjoying the seaside and visiting family and friends. The kitchen was well equipped, beds comfortable, living room cosy. The window nook was a lovely place to enjoy coffee and a book. Steps away from the beach. Would recommend!

We are sorry you did not enjoy your stay in our cottage. The sofa and chairs were both new and although the kitchen is small, we feel it is well equipped and we haven't had any other complaints. We did warn you about the stairs in our correspondence and again, you're the first person who has mentioned them. We're sorry we won't be seeing your party again and we're sorry you didn't enjoy your stay

November girls weekend away

We thought the property was beautiful. Very cosy, clean and comfortable. We were fortunate that the weather was particularly nice for November, we even managed a dip in the channel....not for the faint hearted. Would definitely recommend. Only downside was no private parking space, but with £5 a day charge in the adjacent car park it wasn't a problem for us for a couple of days.
