Nestled in the heart of Broadstairs, this beautifully restored three-bedroom cottage is ideal for families or small groups seeking a cosy coastal getaway. Dating back to around 1806 and originally built for Nelson’s Paymaster General, it has been beautifully restored as a characterful holiday home. The inviting property sleeps up to six guests and sits just 250 metres from the sandy curve of Viking Bay. Shops, pubs, cafés, wine bars and the famous Morelli’s ice cream parlour are all within 500 metres. Visit Broadstairs Bannatyne Health Club and Spa (2 miles) for a spot of fitness or relaxation. Broadstairs itself boasts seven sandy beaches and a lively calendar of events, including fireworks on the beach, Dickens Week, Blues & Folk Week and local food festivals. Go surfing at Joss Bay (1.5 miles) and plan scenic walks along the Viking Coastal Trail (250 metres). Nearby golf courses like North Foreland (2 miles) and Sandwich Championship (14.5 miles) add to the appeal.
This three-storey cottage adjoins the owner’s property, with privacy assured during your holiday. Step inside to the ground floor where a cosy open-plan living area invites you to unwind, complete with comfy seating, a Samsung Frame Smart TV and a wood burner for keeping warm in the evenings. The compact kitchenette is equipped for easy holiday meals and there’s a glass-topped table for dining. On the first floor is a double bedroom with a dedicated workspace and optimised workstation, as well as its own en-suite shower room. Steep stairs then lead to the second floor, home to a further double bedroom with an additional single bed on request, a separate single bedroom, and a second shower room.
Outside, there’s a sunny patio dining area set within a garden that’s beautifully lit at night. This is the perfect spot to relax after a day at the beach, fire up the Weber gas BBQ and enjoy leisurely meals long into the evening. Private parking for one car adds convenience. You’ll also have plenty of additional touches like beach towels, surfboards, picnicware and a beach wagon so that seaside days are simple and fun.
