  Fantastic views from the cottage, sitting on the sofa in the living room you can look through the glass in the door and see a beautifully framed view of Hythe.

  Having a shower, again, looking over Hythe. What a wonderful way to start the day. The cottage was spotless and has absolutely everything and more that you can think of for a great stay. A lovely welcome pack with a packet of biscuits, milk and bottle of wine was a lovely touch. The cottage is dog friendly and there are loads of places to go with the dog nearby. The cottage is situated in a perfect location for getting to Folkestone, Dymchurch and Dungeness. We caught the bus easily to Folkestone for the day and went on the Romney, Hythe & Dymchurch Railway to Dungeness, again all dog friendly. The Steam train is absolutely amazing, definitely worth a trip and our dog loved it too. Brockhill Country Park is closeby and a lovely place to walk the dog and there is a little cafe there too. St Leonards Church is opposite the cottage and there is an Ossuary (Crypt) which is amazing to see and again we were allowed to take the dog in with us. We had lovely walks along Military Canal. All this is on the doorstep, I just can't rave enough about this cottage and its location. The bed was comfortable and we have never slept so well, maybe due to climbing lots of hills too lol. Even the dog was tired out by the end of each day. It was a really relaxing and fantastic holiday at the cottage for us all. We would definitely recommend coming here to stay especially if you have a dog and we would definitely love to come back and stay again. Oh, maybe leave a pen by the visitor book, we weren't able to sign the book as we didn't have a pen, sorry. We would have loved to have signed it for you.

  WOW

  There’s plenty of WOW factor to be enjoyed at The Breakers. The house is beautiful and if you love uninterrupted views of the sea, as we do, this is the place to be. It felt at times like being on a luxury yacht without the sea sickness! The delightful owners could not have been more welcoming, supplying us with a cot and high chair for our one year old grandson and a brand new bed and yummy treats for our dog. They then visited to show us how everything works in their exceptionally well appointed house and give us a comprehensive guide of things to do and places to eat in Folkstone - just a ten minute drive or half an hour stroll along the beach front- and surrounding area. We had a wonderful sense of quiet and privacy at The Breakers as the shingle beach directly outside the house remained relatively underpopulated even on hot, sunny days. There’s a sandy beach only ten minutes walk away so we felt we had the best of both worlds. We only used one of the two small kitchens in the house as we wanted to all eat together as a family. It was a bit of a challenge at times cooking for 6 and a toddler in such a tight space, but we couldn’t have wanted for a lovelier setting to enjoy family time together. On cooler days there’s a roaring wood burning stove to snuggle up to on the sofa while watching Netflix movies! So it really is a year round holiday house. This is definitely a five star stay and we recommend it extremely highly.

  The property has been carefully renovated and provides an excellent central base for the area.

  The downstairs is lovely, cosy and comfortable; though due to lack of worksurface the kitchen is not too great for proper cooking - Hythe has masses of good food options but for health reasons we can't use these. The upstairs is also rather well done. And the shower room practical. The whole place is set up for tall people and we struggled to reach cupboards, hanging rails etc. Overall the cottage is very nice and the views spectacular. The description of the cottage is clear about the steep steps to access the property and to the garden - they mean this! If you have mobility issues you will struggle. The garden is terraced with a gate to a public footpath. And though fully enclosed it is not secure as our dog demonstrated.I There is plenty of parking but also plenty of competition for it, this can be interesting for loading. We enjoyed lovely walks along the canal (bar the odour of cannabis), the local swimming pool is a well maintained snapshot of retro seaside and the local independent coffee shops (Mit Milch particularly) and "weigh and save" are great. Just watch out for the speeding mobility scooters on the high street.

  Kits Cottage is a fantastic place in all respects.

  Very well equipped, cleaned to the highest standards with plenty of cleaning materials left as well. Excellent communication before the holiday meant we knew exactly what we were doing. The cottage has been refurbished quite brilliantly, combining the character and charm of a 200 year old cottage with modern facilities, bathroom and kitchen were both excellent. The book of photos of the refurbishment was also very interesting for the story it told. The cottage is very bright and airy, the back garden very dog friendly which was much appreciated. However it is the front garden and table that is completely breast-taking!! The views across the old church to the sea will be long remembered and as we were lucky with the weather we had several meals and also coffees at the table. I would return to this cottage just for those views! An easy access walk into town, which is delightful, the delights of the Military Canal, the lovely seafront all make this place a must for anyone that likes a decent walk. Easy access too for lots of attractions, Folkestone, Dover, Rye all within an easy journey. Would thoroughly recommend a stay at Kits Cottage.
