Cottage in Kent Folkestone, Kent

Property Description

Located in the seaside village of Sandgate and just a short walk from the beach and a range of excellent restaurants, pubs, boutique cafes and independent shops, a stay at this property offers coastal charm, rural beauty and historical interest in a cosy, convenient setting, and only a short train journey from central London. This is an ideal base for exploring the local area and beautiful Kent countryside: the Cinque Ports towns of Hythe, the Folkestone Harbour Arm, Dover Castle, Port Lympne Safari Park, the Battle of Britain Memorial site at Capel Le Ferne and Canterbury are all great options for half day excursions. For those with an interest in outdoor activities, water sports on the sea and canal, walking or biking on the Kentish Downs or White Cliffs of Dover and even yoga on the beach are in easy reach. Bike hire is available within walking distance. Upon entering this stylishly decorated cottage, you will find a welcoming and spacious hallway leading to a cosy, comfortable lounge (with wood burner and Smart TV), then on to the enclosed courtyard garden. The kitchen is fully equipped with an electric oven and gas hob, fridge/freezer, Nespresso coffee machine, dishwasher and washing machine, and a light filled family dining area with seating for everyone. French doors also open onto the sheltered courtyard. The first bedroom is on the ground floor, a lovely double with a compact and separate bathroom with shower over bath and WC. The staircase from the lounge leads up to the first floor and the remaining bedrooms: one with full sized bunk beds, and the master bedroom with a double bed and a sea view. There is also a shower room with shower and WC. Heading outside from either the lounge or kitchen you will have access to a fully enclosed courtyard garden with garden furniture to relax after a busy day exploring. There is driveway parking for one car at the front of the property. Additional parking is available in a public car park less than a minute walk from the property (charges apply).
