    The property was spotlessly clean, very comfy beds and pillows, few minutes away from the high street and walking distance to the beach. Barbecue facilities and a nice back garden.

    Very clean and clutter free, great quality beds and bedding. Very comfortable and modern, liked that it was a bungalow with a big secure garden
  • Elena

    The house is really nicely done, spacious, bright and with all the necessary facilities. The house is really great for dogs, no carpets and the garden is large and with a solid 6ft fence so really secure. We found the location of the property...

Bright, spacious bungalow with a contemporary yet homely feel. Located in desirable Tankerton, minutes from the picturesque seafront, cafes, shops, restaurants, bus and rail links. The property offers off road parking and a large garden with patio, barbecue and all the home comforts. As a bungalow, the property is ideal for those young or old and makes a great base for families and friends to come together. The bustling high street of Whitstable town centre is 1.7 miles away and the historic city of Canterbury, 8 miles.
As a resident of Whitstable, I am always delighted to have the opportunity to share the area I love with guests. Whitstable and the surrounding areas have a lot to offer and our team work hard to ensure the bungalow is the perfect base from which to explore and a welcoming place to relax. As a host, I am always happy to try and meet any requests a guest may have to ensure they get the most from their trip. Away from hosting, I enjoy stand up paddleboarding, sea swimming (weather permitting!), yoga and cycling.
Aside from the picture perfect sunsets, some of the (many) reasons people come to Whitstable are to browse in the numerous art galleries, museums and independent shops, sample the fresh local seafood (in particular the oysters for which Whitstable is famous) at the towns original fishing harbour, eat at some of the many excellent local restaurants; JoJo's, the Sportsman, the Whitstable Oyster Company, Wheelers and Pearsons to name but a few. Enjoy fish and chips on the beach washed down with a beverage from one of the local micro breweries or gin bars, or an ice cream from Sundae Sundae; go crabbing, on a boat trip or visit Whitstable castle with it's Pirate park and scenic tearooms. If you still have time to explore, heading further down the coast brings you to the sandy beaches of Joss and Minnis Bay, Margate with Dreamland and it's hip and happening Old Town or picturesque Broadstairs. Heading inland brings you to the historic city of Canterbury with its cobbled streets, ancient architecture and stunning cathedral. All within 60 miles of London.
