Late booking which was a great success! Very peaceful location, ideal for visits to Sandwich, Broadstairs and Ramsgate! At low tide its possible to walk on the beach from Broadstairs to Ramsgate. Many walks of varying length direct from the cottage and only a short distance to the sea. The welcome hamper was probably the best we have experienced in all the years of using this company! Only a five day visit but will remain in memory for much longer!!
