Among the Georgian architecture, stylish cafe bars and rugged beaches, this super chic apartment will give you an authentic taste of the Kent coastline. Located in the seaside town of Deal, you'll have the famous pier quite literally on your doorstep and can admire the waves crashing against the shores from your living room window each morning. If you're craving a little sea air, take a walk along this local landmark and stop for coffee at the glass-walled cafe at the end.

Away from the beach, there's plenty to discover, from ancient castles to world-class golf courses. If you're here for the weekend, the Saturday Market is a must-visit – pick up a range of fresh, local produce then head home for a good old-fashioned barbecue in the courtyard. Post-dinner, enjoy a glass of wine alfresco, then head indoors to relax by the fireplace. If you're travelling with little ones, they're bound to appreciate the den, which can be found in the basement. From board games to movies, get cosy each evening and enjoy some family time.
