This characterful property in Whitstable is a perfect home for a romantic break or for families to splash and have fun at the seaside. There’s plenty of space in the property to sleep six and two dogs over three great sized bedrooms. For those keen on outdoor living, this is the place for you as the property boasts a wonderful garden with a large lawn for both children and dogs to tear around on. Challenge the kids to a game of swingball and then fire up the charcoal BBQ for some outdoor dining.

Enter the property via the small hallway where there’s plenty of space to pop your shoes, coat and dog leads ready for a day of adventure. In the lounge you’ll be able to take advantage of the plump sofas, bean bag and blankets while you and your waggy-tailed ones curl up in front of the wood burner. Follow the beautiful wooden floor throughout the lounge to the dining area where you’ll find a huge table with ample space for six, so whatever you whip up in the bespoke, handmade kitchen you should all be able to eat together. For solo mornings, a breakfast bar provides the perfect place to perch with a coffee. The bedrooms are accessed by two steep, narrow wooden staircases, adding to the property’s charm.

Whitstable is a seaside town with a strong medieval history, famous for its low-level marsh area known as The Salts. You’ll find a wealth of independent shops, restaurants and cafes in the area. Dogs will welcome the beach and coastal walks, whereas their human family members may go in search of watersports such as kite surfing and sailing. Further afield is the historic city of Canterbury (7 miles) which houses the world famous cathedral and affords visitors a bustling city atmosphere.

A lovely place to stay in Whitstable with everything you need to have a great holiday. Parking was fine and it was great to be in walking distance of everything. The woodburners were brilliant and we really appreciated the wood made available in the cottage.

We enjoyed a thoroughly comfortable and relaxing stay. The location is incredible and whilst there isnt private parking we didnt ever struggle to find parking very near to the property. The Easter treats and fresh flowers were a very thoughtful gesture and very much appreciated. Thank you! Would highly recommend.

Our second stay at Saltway House. A cosy cottage thats deceptively spacious for 2 families. The house is lovely and cosy but we also enjoyed the warmth from the log fire too.

The property could do with a bit of updating but was actually very comfy and warm. Beware of very steep stairs to the upstairs bedrooms. Only 1 bathroom downstairs. Nice little garden and fairly near the centre of Whitstable.
