A delightful retreat in the colourful seaside town of Whitstable in Kent, this inviting cottage has been beautifully finished. Stylish, comfortable and with a delightful courtyard garden, it has two bedrooms and sleeps up to four guests. Just 500 metres from the shingle beach, where you can swim, paddle board and stroll along to independent stalls, galleries and shops, the cottage is also within reach of a plethora of eateries, many of which are renowned for their seafood. Whitstable is also famed for its annual oyster festival. Keen walkers and cyclists can follow the Whitstable Coastal Trail or the Saxon Shore Way during their stay. Whitstable Castle, 0.5 miles away, is a lovely place to while away an afternoon exploring the gardens. Venture 10 miles to enjoy a day out in the magnificent Kent Downs. Canterbury, 7 miles away and with its famous cathedral, is also a must during your stay.

Step in from the street to enter the light and airy lounge featuring a bay window and comfortable seating. Open your books or pick up the remote control and find a good film for everyone to enjoy on the Smart TV. Amble on through to the kitchen/diner to the rear of the cottage, where you will find catering is easy thanks to the galley-style kitchen space. Whip up delicious meals with the tasty local produce you have bought in town, then dine together at the table by the glass doors that lead to the garden. When you are ready to turn in for the night, make your way up to your charming double bedrooms on the first floor. The stylish family bathroom, where you can choose between the bath and shower, is also here.

Spill out into the courtyard garden to savour the sunshine at every opportunity. Pop open a bottle of fizz to enjoy with some of the town’s famous fresh oysters on summer evenings. Guests at this cottage benefit from unrestricted roadside parking, subject to availability.

We had a lovely stay in Whitstable. The house is brilliantly located for easy access to the high street (especially Sainsburys), and a short walk to the seafront/ harbour. Very easy walk from the train station too for those travelling by train. The house facilities were very good, especially the washing machine for any ice cream splattered child cRead morelothing!

We really enjoyed our stay at Waves End . It was all that we expected from previous reviews and photographs . Communication with Dave who looks after the property was excellent and he responded promptly when the boiler cut out. We would definitely stay there again.

Waves End is a lovely property. Very clean. Warm and comfortable. Great location. Peaceful, wouldnt know youre a 2 minute walk from the high street, and no more than 5 minute walk from the beach. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay there, and would recommend it to anyone. Look forward to going back ourselves at some point.

The cottage was equipped with everything we needed for our 3 night stay. It was super clean. Its very quiet yet really close to shops and the beach. The cottage has a very nice outdoor space.perfect for that early morning cuppa or fish and chip supper. Would highly recommend.

Waves End is the ideal sea side bolt hole. We really enjoyed our stay and found everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The house is in the ideal location, 2 minutes walk to the shops and restaurants (whilst still being on a quiet, residential road) and about 4 mins to the beach front where we saw the best sunset. The kitchen was really well eRead morequipped with everything needed, the beds are super comfortable and it was the perfect size house for a long weekend for our family of four. We fully recommend Birdies restaurant, a stones throw from the house - great food and lovely staff. Well definitely be back the next time we stay in Whitstable! Hide
