Lead the way to adventure along Kent’s magnificent coastline with a pet-welcoming stay in the fashionable seaside town of Whitstable. This beloved coastal community invites both paws and people to explore, offering wide shingle beaches and picturesque coastal walks to be enjoyed by those on two feet and four. The property itself is a characterful cottage filled with eclectic charm, hosting four guests and one four-pawed pal – a tail-wagging choice for families or couples. Look forward to cosy nights indoors and sunny evenings spent in the garden, letting Rover safely wander between the two as they please.

Beautifully styled with mid-century flair and pretty pops of colour, this two-storey cottage is sure to impress. A true doggy paradise, you’ll find plenty of cosy corners to place your pup’s favourite bed and blanket – perfect for when you’re curled up on the sofa or enjoying a meal in the adjacent dining room. At the back of the house, the galley kitchen is well-equipped for serving up delicious dinners (and saving a scrap or two for your pooch, of course). A ground-floor bathroom completes this bijou interior, while upstairs you’ll find two inviting double bedrooms. Outside, a charming courtyard-style garden is furnished and fully enclosed, creating a safe space for pets and children to play.

Just a few minutes from the town centre and half a mile from the beach, this Whitstable hideaway makes it easy to explore everything the area has to offer. Dogs are welcome along the entire stretch of Whitstable’s shingle shoreline, so pack your tennis balls and treats for fun-filled days by the sea. And if the weather isn’t made for sunbathing, follow the scenic coastal path to Herne Bay (5 miles), stopping to chase the perfect stick and soak up those sweeping sea views along the way.

What a gorgeous comfy, cosy cottage. Beautifully curated with eclectic bits and bobs to feel like a real seaside escape. Beautiful garden even though we couldn't use, due to being poor weather. Great location just outside the main town centre but within easy flat walk to lots of great cafes, bars & restaurants and the beach! Lovely and warm insiRead morede, fab fully equipped kitchen and very modern bathroom. My only recommendation is if you have trouble with steep stairs and possibly night time trips to the bathroom, this is not the cottage for you. We had a wonderful time in this Whitstable cottage, well done to the owners on such a beautiful homely property. Hide

We stayed at this property for three nights and it was a fabulous experience. The cottage is stunning and the location is perfect. It is close to the beach and the high street which has many lovely craft shops. The winners had provided an information file which was perfect. Every we needed was contained in this file. This would be our cottage of chRead moreoice for any future visits to Whitstable and we will be recommended it to friends. Finally the beautiful garden will be perfect for warm summer evenings. All in all a five star experience and we extend our thanks to the owners. Hide
