The Old Fisherman's Cottage

Whitstable, with its pastel-painted shop fronts and shingle beach, is one of Kent’s prettiest seaside towns – and this whimsical home sits less than half a mile from the shoreline. Inside, it’s an eclectic blend of homespun comfort and understated luxury. Expect Egyptian cotton towels, bold licks of Farrow & Ball paint, a log burning fire to keep things cosy and premium quality mattresses. At this all-weather abode, you can get comfy in the vibrant living space when it's chilly out or spill out into your back garden for seafood barbecues when the sun shines.

Take advantage of balmy afternoons with a stroll down to the water. Brave the chill and go for a dip or retreat to the famous Old Neptune pub and watch on with a glass of your favourite tipple. When it comes to dinner, you’re a ten-minute drive from a Michelin starred restaurant and a two-minute walk to stellar eateries on the High Street, which you’ll find special discounts for in your welcome pack.
