Whitstable was a beautiful seaside town and we were incredibly lucky to find such an amazing place to stay and enjoy it. We were walking distance to everything we could need and would definitely stay here again!!!!!

Lovely property and great location
We had a lovely week in Whistable staying at this property. Beds were comfortable and the property was lovely and clean. Everything we needed for a comfortable stay.The car parking space was perfect for us and it was a great bonus as parking is difficult on surrounding streets and public car parks. The court yard garden was lovely and peaceful. We were close to the Main Street for all the local independent food and shopping. The butcher’s, Alan R Long, was excellent value for money and really delicious meat for our BBQ’s. The beach was close by for us to go crabbing and relax in the sunshine. We enjoyed the walk out to Tankerton and back.Our day out to Chatham Historic Navel museum was expensive, but worth the visit. Ice cream opportunities were plentiful throughout Whistable and the return walk from Tankerton.

Great 4 day break
Excellent location within 5 minute walk of sea, shops and fantastic restaurants. Well appointed house, well stocked on arrival, lovely garden, perfect in every way for 2 couples out and about. We loved Whitstable. Wonderful hot weather was a bonus.A noisy dawn chorus from seagulls!!

Anniversary Break
The property was in a great location and was ideal for our needs with a lovely outside area that gets the sun for breakfast and an evening drink. It was spotlessly clean and the wine and nibbles were much appreciated. The only slight downside is I don't think the size of the parking space was highlighted enough as it is only suitable for quite a small car. We were lucky as the neighbours were not there for our stay so we could use it.. Having said that, I would thoroughly recomend the property. We have stayed in quite a few holiday properties and this would definitely be in the best 3. G & C - STAMFORD

Lovely homely cottage located in ideal spot
If considering a stay in Whitstable, I highly recommend Victoria Cottage. Ideally located just behind the harbour end of the High Street, it is in easy walk of local independent restaurants. The Cottage is homely and welcoming and Sarah the host, appears to have pre-empted any utensil/pot and pan or casserole requirements should you choose to cook. The microwave is high power so if ‘chicken ping’ or similar is your thing, you’ll get to eat quickly. The double bed in the main bedroom is comfortable and there is an en-suite facility. The main bathroom is spacious and has a shower above the bath that is deightfully efficient. There is an attic bedroom with 2 single beds but we did not need to use this. Having looked it is thoughtfully set out and ideal for children. The TV is not a smart TV but we brought along our Firestick and was able to use that in the USB port. Sarah provides a mini tourism information basket with flyers of local attractions and things to do in the surrounding district. Personally recommend Wingham Wildlife Park which is family run, well maintained, has great children play areas and animals that come up close and seem to like to interact with folk. Local info: Consider a mid-week break if you want to eat at Pearson’s. Tuesday is fish and chips for £7.50 plus they have live music on a Tuesday. You’d need to plan and book in advance for Pearson’s as they do get fully booked even on days without a special price. The Rock Lodge, open Thursday to Sunday, has choice of formal and more expensive dining upstairs with casual dining and live music downstairs. Rock around the Clock, open for all meals and located in an old bank on the High Street. You can eat in a vault. If you want to use a chain restaurant then there is a Zizzi and also a Prezzo in Whitstable. The Peter Cushing is a Wetherspoon at the bottom end of town and is unlike any of that chain I have been in before, it is clean, well-kept and pleasant to use. Whitstable Larger is sold here at a very competitive price!

Great Christmas Break!
We had a great time, excellent location, only a few minutes walk from the high street, decorated for Christmas and parking on site and bottle of fizz on arrival was an added bonus. Only thing that would’ve made it perfect, was a lock on the gate in working order (gate has dropped so unable to use) so we felt it was secure enough letting the dogs out unsupervised. All in all a great Christmas break. Thank you!

Older ladies reunion
We were a group of 56yr old ladies, old school friends who meet from time to time to feel like 15yr olds again. Perfect location for us to walk everywhere with no need for car. We done a day trip to Canterbury by train one day and that was lovely too. We stayed for 4 nights, the cottage was lovely and traditional and very clean and comfortable. Communication was great with Sarah the owner and she even left a bottle of wine for us which I thought was such a lovely touch. No hesitation in recommending this place and we all hope to return soon.

Relaxing
From booking to arriving everything went smoothly. Sarah our host was very accommodating. The accommodation had everything we needed for our stay. Clean compact and having two toilets fir two couples is always a bonus. We would def recommend Victoria cottage.

Short and restful break in Whitstable.
The property was clean, quite well-equipped and in a convenient location. My concern is that whilst we were a party of 5 adults there was only sleeping accommodation for 4 people.

Great attention to detail
The property is in an excellent location. Everything is within easy reach - the harbour, beach, restaurants, pubs, shops etc. I think the owner has provided for every need - exceptional. There was even a bottle of (decent) wine waiting on arrival. Personally I found the stairs difficult as I have severe arthritis, but it was perfect for the family.

Well appointed cottage. Just wish there had been more than one mirror (in the en suite) that I could see at least my whole face in I am 5ft tall. Other wise everything that you could wish for in a cottage by the seaside. Literally 10mins walk from the sea front. Will definitely book again

A gem of Whitstable. A most tastefully decoated and furnished cottage just five minutes from he beach with asmall garden to enjoy eating a la fresco. The twin bedroom upstairs was wonderful and the rest of the house echoed this Very pretty little touches and so much provided by he host as you arrive. Also plenty of crockery etc and a dishwasher and washing machine!! I could go on and on. Thank you Sandra it was aperfect break.

Wonderful break
Spent two nights at Sarah's lovely cottage, the pictures don't do it full justice. It's cosy, clean and in a great location, just minutes from great shops, bars, restaurants and beach but cut off enough from bustle for peace and quiet. The parking space is a great bonus, we didn't use car once parked. Thank you for all the extras - and to Sue for bringing the wine and making us welcome. We loved Whitstable and would like to explore further afield, so would love to stay again.
