A Done Deal Deal, Kent

Holiday Rental Description

Perched in a quiet corner of the dashingly pretty seaside town of Deal and just a pebble's throw from the beach, you'll find this ultra-hip home. From the outside, it's a quintessential fisherman's cottage, but that's where the olde-worlde vibes end. Sensitively and lovingly restored by a London power couple – a chef-restaurateur and a landscape designer – the home has been transformed into a light-filled, modern space full of creative touches. While those all-important original fireplaces, sash windows, and wooden floorboards remain, everything else has been reimagined. Downstairs, there's a pitched roof dining space with a contemporary free-standing kitchen made for action, leading into a bijou but perfectly formed garden crammed with exotic palms. Upstairs, there are three surprisingly spacious bedrooms spread out over two floors and a modern shower room. And when it's time to hit the beach, you won't have far to go – it's just a one-minute amble away - as is the bustling high street for cream teas and local antique browsing. Or, for a hefty dose of nostalgia, stroll along to the promenade to buy fish and chips, gamble two-pence pieces in the arcades, and treat yourself to a double cone at the ice cream parlour – it would be rude not to.
