Life Imitates Art Margate, Kent

Holiday Rental Description

Steps away from the sandy banks of St Mildred's Bay, this modern cottage is the ideal family getaway. The seaside theme naturally sweeps through the home with cobalt blue furniture and natural woods, leading to the star of the show, the mural. The kids (and the grown-ups!) will love the colourful mural for its lovely detail and the whimsical feel that it adds to the home. Breakfasts eaten around the dining table surrounded by painted sea creatures will certainly motivate you to get out there and explore, so it's lucky you don't have to go far.

The charming seaside town of Westgate-on-Sea is just a thirteen-minute walk away where you'll find quaint cafes, an old-fashioned cinema, and a lovely sandy beach. Or, you can take the thirty-minute coastal walk to Margate. There, you'll find an even bigger beach, with even more independent shops and cafes to explore. However you spend the day, you'll love getting home to your cottage. Enjoy the last of the afternoon sun in the courtyard, listening to the sounds of the seagulls nearby with a nice drink in hand. Let the barbecue take care of dinner for a relaxing evening in, playing games and enjoying drinks around the table. Or, head out to one of the many restaurants nearby, the closest is just a two-minute walk away.
