This gorgeous cottage really is a treasure found down a quiet little lane. Quince Tree cottage sits in an elevated position overlooking the rooftops of the seaside town of Hythe with panoramic views to the sea from all the rooms at the back of the house.  With a wonderful verandah, terrace and balcony it will be difficult to decide where to sit and enjoy the view on those sunny days.  The centre of town is just a few minutes walk, so this house is great for anybody who doesn't want to bring the car; and the beach and Royal Military canal, with rowing boats to hire, is a short stroll.  The town has everything to offer for the perfect seaside break; lovely pebble beaches, great little restaurants and  the famous Romney Hythe & Dymchurch miniature railway, for a fun daytrip to Romney Marsh.
