A group of us came to support one of us who was showing photos at the nearby Horsebridge Gallery. The location suited us perfectly. Near the gallery, just off the High Street, but on a quiet side street. Plenty of good restaurants nearby. Bus stops were very close. Train station was about a 10 minute level walk. There was also a lovely pool and gym facility close by with day passes for £6.50 (or £20 for the week).
Lovely home, well maintained. The beds were comfortable. It was November so we didn’t use the garden area, but it looked appealing for warmer weather.
Our host, Charles was easy to contact and quick to address any issues or questions.
One caveat: the stairs are steep so anyone with a mobility issue might want to consider sleeping on the ground floor. Those sleeping in the twin bed room will either have to use the ground floor bathroom or go through the other bedroom to get to the bathroom on that floor.
As someone who does have mobility issues, I'll pass one other learning about Whitstable itself. It’s not London - you can’t just call a cab when you want one. There were often 45 minute or longer delays. So if you want to take a cab, call well in advance.
That said, it was a sweet house and the location is super. We had a great stay.
