Located in the seaside village of Sandgate and just a short walk from the beach and a range of excellent restaurants, pubs, boutique cafes and independent shops, a stay at this property offers coastal charm, rural beauty and historical interest in a cosy, convenient setting, and only a short train journey from central London. This is an ideal base for exploring the local area and beautiful Kent countryside: the Cinque Ports towns of Hythe, the Folkestone Harbour Arm, Dover Castle, Port Lympne Safari Park, the Battle of Britain Memorial site at Capel Le Ferne and Canterbury are all great options for half-day excursions. For those with an interest in outdoor activities, water sports on the sea and canal, walking or biking on the Kentish Downs or White Cliffs of Dover and even yoga on the beach are in easy reach. Bike hire is available within walking distance.

Upon entering this stylishly-decorated cottage, you will find a welcoming and spacious hallway leading to a cosy, comfortable lounge (with wood burner and Smart TV), then on to the enclosed courtyard garden.  The kitchen is fully-equipped with an electric oven and gas hob, fridge/freezer, Nespresso coffee machine, dishwasher and washing machine, and a light-filled family dining area with seating for everyone. French doors also open onto the sheltered courtyard. The first bedroom is on the ground floor, a lovely double with a compact and separate bathroom with shower over bath and WC. The staircase from the lounge leads up to the first floor and the remaining bedrooms: one with full-sized bunk beds, and the master bedroom with a double bed and a sea view. There is also a shower room with shower and WC.

Heading outside from either the lounge or kitchen you will have access to a fully enclosed courtyard garden with garden furniture to relax after a busy day exploring.

Lovely cottage, great location and very well equipped. Couple of small steps on the ground floor which my 82 year old mum struggled with but overall a great place to stay and wouldnt hesitate to recommend. Sulav manages the property and is easy to contact for extra bedding etc. Loved my stay!

The cottage was lovely and cosy and the welcome pack, very generous. The beds were super comfy. It was situated in a perfect location for all our travel wishes. We had a problem with the fridge on the first night and this was dealt with efficiently. The children are already begging us to go back!

Really nice cottage which was more spacious than what we thought it would be from looking at the photos. The open plan kitchen area was a plus point with the adjoining dining table as well. Great location within 1 mins walk of the Sandgate sea front. Very happy!

A lovely cottage, very clean and welcoming. We enjoyed the courtyard in the centre of the building. Two bathrooms were very handy. Everything was modern and well kept. Will go back. Great location and handy driveway.

Nice place, cosy, looks a lot bigger in photos. Comfy, recommend anyone staying to filter the water, otherwise there is a definite odd taste to the water. Well situated for beach and visiting places.

We enjoyed our stay here. Cleanliness & comfort were excellent. Just two things to be aware of: 1. Steps when going from one room to another downstairs! 2. Upstairs bathroom is very small! Otherwise, all went well. Would recommend. The Regan Family

We really enjoyed our stay at Kings Cottage. It was lovely when we arrived and have wine and some essentials left for us. The Cottage is very well equipped and extremely comfortable with high quality furnishings. The locals were very friendly and helpful in advising us where to go for food and places to visit. The little green area opposite was verRead morey useful for our dog to visit and the locals were very interested in meeting him as he is a bull terrier and some people have never met the breed. Hide

Great location we loved Sandgate. The cottage was clean and well equipped apart from a couple of minor problems. Be aware that as this is an old building there are different levels between many of the rooms with steps up or down. The cottage is just off the end of the high street easy to walk to restaurants and shops. The beach is just across the rRead moreoad and has a lovely promenade all along, part of the coastal path.
