The current owners have paid homage to this with a tea themed display.

Comfortable beds, excellent showers a fabulous location. We loved the path to the beach and that it was so easy to walk into town.

We liked the location, near the beach and an easy walk into the centre. We were able to paddle board etc. We enjoyed Stone Bay and also spent a day on Viking Bay and went back in the evening to.the fireworks which were v impressive. We walked into Ramsgate one day and caught the open top bus back to very near the house ##### Patricia O.

Perfect facilities. Took extended family for the Holiday. If you like beaches, then a slope and 82 steps takes you to a lovely cove. Plenty of Supermarkets within a 10 minute drive. If you want a basepoint so to be able to go out for says out. Then this could be perfect. Or just stay at the accommodation and relax and enjoy where you are. Just beware, the streets/roads to get you to the bungalow are a little crowded and tight. Suggest you put a swear box in the car and see the jar fill up quickly. Lol ##### Keith R.
