The cottage is ideally situated. It’s a short walk to the beach and places of interest like the Dickens museum. There are many restaurants a short walk from the cottage. It is warm and comfortable, with a nice kitchen and living room. We enjoyed our stay.

Nice comfortable cottage but chilly

We would have appreciated a small welcome pack i.e. milk etc, as is provided in other properties we have rented, thereby saving us having to go to the shop as soon as we arrived.

3rd time felt like home away from home

This is the third time we've stayed at this property over the past decade. That alone should say something. Works great for myself and my two daughters and the best thing is it has parking, which is a rarity in Broadstairs. Saying that you need a small(ish) car as it's very tight getting in and out, but we already knew that.

holiday at SeaView Cottage

The property was delightful and beautifully decorated. There was a problem with parking and we were blocked in on many days. There were builders with two vans nearly every day we were there which meant that other occupants of the other cottages had to park where they could which caused the problems we had.

Wonderful Weekend

We enjoyed a lovely Easter break in the cottage. The cottages itself is clean and comfortable. We particularly found the bed very comfortable. The refurbishment has been completed to a high standard and we rather enjoyed listening to the Sonos system whilst in the dining / kitchen area. The location is great. Central without the noise. It is literally a 2 minute walk to the main streets and although it is down a single track it is well lit at night. The neighbours at number 7 were particularly pleasant and very helpful especially when it came to the parking arrangements. Highly recommended.

Centrally-Located & Well Appointed Small House

Good s/c property for mobile adults; would accommodate children, but confined spaces. Steepish stairs and limited shady back yard with table & chairs. Modern kitchen appliances and cottagey furnishings. Parking tricky, as narrow shared area. Great, central location.

Not bad but not great

Just about ok only one single bed made up.. it was very cold when we arrived it would have been nice if the heating had been on.solidified coffee in coffee tin.. no books in lounge ..dishwasher needed attention looked full of limescale..much further to the cottage than shown on the website.. very large clock in kitchen..no battery!. I think just a little more attention to detail would be good ..

A delightful cottage

We had a lovely stay in Seaview Cottage - we didn’t want to leave! The location is perfect - quiet but very central. The cottage had everything that we needed. It is cosy and charming. The beds are very comfortable and we felt very much at home. We’d love to stay again.

October break

Lovely three night stay in this house - it was spotlessly clean and very well equipped. An easy walk into town and the beach and the local shopkeepers and restaurant staff were all really friendly and helpful. The only issue is with the access to the house in the car - I know it has been mentioned in previous reviews but it is VERY tricky to negotiate and you need to be pretty confident at driving in reverse unless you drive a very small car!

Lovely little cottage.

We very much enjoyed our stay in this delightful cottage. It was spotlessly clean, the kitchen was a good size and well equipped, with a nice sized dining table. The whole property was beautifully decorated and as described. The only downside was the parking which was quite tricky! Definitely not suitable for a large car, this is mentioned in the description but maybe not emphasised enough. The booking process and communication with the owner was very good. Overall we would be be happy to recommend this property to others.

Midweek getaway

The cottage is exactly as described. Spotlessly clean, small but perfectly proportioned. The kitchen had lovely crockery, lots of glasses and everything you need including tea towels and sponges. The bedlinen and bath towels were soft and fluffy, beds were very comfortable and lovely pillows. The small courtyard garden was pretty and had a nice table and chairs. The location was perfect, 2 minutes walk to the high street and and a short stroll to the beach - The Pathway is down a very narrow lane, you definitely need to drive a smallish car! We thoroughly enjoyed Broadstairs, lots of great restaurants, we particularly enjoyed the Thai restaurant, Siam Kitchen. We would 100% recommend Fishermans Cottage, you won't be disappointed.

Sea View Cottage

It is a very well maintained property and is very comfortable. The only criticism is the cracked sink in the kitchen. The main problem however is the parking. Very difficult to get down the track to the cottage and it was difficult not to get wedged in by other cars parking in the nearby cottages. This outlined earlier in the cottage details.
