Soul's New Morning

A short stroll from the sea, this Walmer home is the perfect base for exploring Kent. You're walking distance from Deal Pier (just over a mile away) as well as the area's two waterfront castles. But with the sun and surf calling, you'll want to spend all your time on the beach. Pack a picnic and while away mornings catching the sun on the shore, then enjoy afternoon wanders along the promenade – stopping for an ice cream cone, of course. Come evening, crawl into one of the neighbourhood pubs for a pint and a hearty dinner. Better yet, make your way home for cocktails and a barbecue in the courtyard garden, watching the sun go down.

Inside, the design effortlessly marries cosy, coastal charm with contemporary features. Snuggle up in front of the fire with a good book, soak aching feet in the bathtub (complete with a rainfall shower) or settle down for a catnap in the comfortable bedrooms. In the kitchen, home chefs can unleash their culinary skills, preparing a delicious meal with local produce and fresh-caught fare from the fishmonger. The dining table has room for everyone, so pull up a chair and tuck in.
