Beachfront apartment with stunning sea views
Such an awesome little find. Came over to Kent for work and needed to find somewhere at the last minute - and was super grateful that Lisa had some availability! Lisa was super helpful and proactive with contact including instructions on finding the apartment and checking in and recommendations on things to see and do. I only wish I could have stayed longer - 100% would recommend. Thanks again Lisa!

Westfields Cottage Sleeps 5 Beautiful setting
A lovely cottage, we have enjoyed our stay very much. There are lots of nice touches in a good thought for the comfort of guests. Warm house in every room by the time of our arrival; milk, juice, home made jam (delicious!), bread, cereals avalible; little messages that welcome and guide through the house. There are actually 3 bathrooms. All is spotless clean and fresh. We wish to return :)

Mariners Cottage - on Kingsdown Beach
Just the cutest cottage in the most idyllic location - right on the beach in a picturesque row of colourful cottages, steps from a great old pub, less than 90 mins from London. What more could you ask for! I can’t wait to come back and stay for longer to make the most of this terrific stay and beautiful area. Ally also provides a fab app full of recommendations of walks, restaurants and local shops.

Little Poppy studio
We had a nice cozy stay in little poppy, everything present, lots of privacy in a cute garden where the sun is all day. Excellent base for cycling along the beach but also inland. Bridget is a nice hostess responded quickly after a message. Thanks for everything, a good start to our journey through England

Glamping at Blandred Farm Shepherd's Hut
Had a lovely stay here. Peaceful location, friendly host (and spaniel who dropped in for a visit) and the hut is nice. Clean, cosy and I appreciated the small touches like fresh flowers and milk, would definitely return

Self-contained apartment with amazing views.
We had another wonderful long weekend in this beautiful bungalow with the most gorgeous surroundings and views. Our hosts were absolutely amazing, providing a well stocked hamper, an incredibly clean and comfortable home from home. Such a treat in a peaceful location, just lovely - thanks so much.

Flat 4, Marine Parade House, 1 East Cliff
The perfect location, walkable to town and to Dover Castle. Most places were closed due to Easter and the following day which was also a holiday so that was challenging. There were 6 of us staying, more ideal for 4 people. The noise from the road below didn’t bother us at all. I would recommend using a “noise machine” if staying in the primary bedroom, but the bed was really comfortable and we got great sleep. Ideal place to walk to all the restaurants once they did open. Rain was very accommodating and responded very quickly to any questions I had.

The Annexe Close to Dover Port
lovely annex, great decor and layout, had everything we needed for a few day and well situated for a wedding we attended. The building and finish is very high quality and instructions from Lyndsey was very clear. Highly recommend 👌
