About this property
Coastal garden flat with parking. Pet friendly! Only 2 minutes from the beach!
Ground floor apartment. 1 quiet bedroom to the rear with a kingsize bed, 1 sofa bed in the lounge, separate kitchen/diner.
1 small breed dog allowed with prior notice. No puppies under 12 months old. Fees apply. No other type of pets/animals accepted. Dog sitting services available.
Located in Sandgate (2 minutes from the beach) and just 55 minutes from London and 10 minutes from EuroTunnel, this is a perfect retreat. We have our own entrance, a private gated patio garden to the front and off-road parking!

This is a lovely spacious garden flat on the ground floor of a 4-storey building built in the 1800’s and offers approx. 54sqm / 577 sq ft of space.
It has a cosy cottage feel about it with sole use of the gated front patio garden with private access from both the front and rear of the building.
The front entrance porch has practical space for shoes and coats and leads to a generous lounge, complete with 2-seater sofa-bed and 2 armchairs. The sofa-bed includes a wonderfully comfortable small double memory foam mattress (4ft x 6ft).
The lounge is a light and airy room with solid wood flooring that suits the charm and the character of the building.
We have a flat screen TV with Freeview, Chromecast, Sonos and Wi-Fi internet access plus a varied selection of DVDs and books.
Through the door to the kitchen and dining area, which is well equipped with all new appliances including electric oven and gas hob, fridge-freezer, dishwasher, microwave and washer dryer along with cupboards packed with plenty of pots, pans, crockery & glassware, cutlery & utensils - all that you might need for a short or long stay. There is seating and dining space for up to 4 guests.
The inner hallway leads to the bathroom and bedroom and also the rear access to parking.
The bathroom is modern and spacious and consists of WC, basin and a generous sized walk-in shower. We will provide bath towels for your stay and we also keep a supply of shampoo, conditioner and shower gels available which you are welcome to use.
The bedroom is a quiet space to the rear of the building with a king size bed with the most comfortable memory foam & spring combo mattress. Perfect for a restful sleep. There’s also a chair & side table, clothes rail and chest of drawers.
The bed will be made up ready for your arrival.
This is an ideal retreat for couples, but the sofa bed allows for an extra adult or up to 2 children. It’s perfect as a base to visit the many attractions around Kent and surrounding areas.
Guests with children or with mobility issues should be aware that there are 8 quite steep steps down to the road from the front patio garden and a further 8 to the rear. There are handrails to assist at both.
Local amenities include a village store/post office and various pubs, restaurants, tearooms and shops all within meters of the property.
The village of Sandgate fringes the English Channel and spans 2.5 kms of Kent coastline between Folkestone and Hythe. It's just a few minutes from both towns by car or bus or a level seafront walk or cycle ride. You'll find beaches with long views over the Channel.
There are plenty of places to visit including Folkestone's Lower Leas Coastal Park, the "World Famous" Romney, Hythe & Dymchurch miniature railway, Dover Castle, Canterbury Cathedral, Port Lympne Wild Animal Park and many more wonderful spots throughout the Kent countryside or if you prefer you can jump on a ferry and head to France for the day.
We are happy to accept 1 small, well-behaved dog at a charge of £25 per stay for additional cleaning. To save any embarrassment, please do not ask about any dogs that are not a small breed - over 10kg. We have an agreement with our neighbours and are unable to offer accommodation for any dog that does not fit this description.
**Please note that the minimum booking during peak season is 4 nights and should be within a Saturday - Saturday time frame (or Friday - Friday by prior arrangement). We do have adhoc days and occasional shorter options so do contact me prior to booking if you are unsure**

About the host
Hosted by Nikki H
Having grown up in the area, Sandgate holds happy memories of summer days at the beach with family and friends.
My family still all live quite local and I now live and work in Greater London, so this is the perfect escape for my husband and I and an opportunity to catch up with the when we stay here.
I have spent much of my career in the events and hospitality business and have enjoyed the process of improving the property over the last 7 years and achieving the high ratings we receive. It's a thrill every time one of our guests writes a positive review or calls and tells me how they've enjoyed the flat.

Why they chose this property
The apartment is in a great location within walking distance to the shops, cafes, bars & restaurants of Sandgate and just a couple of minutes from the beach. It's also a good walk from here to Folkestone and we can reward ourselves with a bite to eat and a drink at the Harbour Arm.
The apartment is a great spot to use as a base. We visit all over Kent from here and enjoy coming back to our little haven by the sea.

What makes this property unique
Our home has it's own front and rear entrance which gives the feeling of a cottage more than an apartment.
Having our own off-street parking is a huge benefit during summer.
There are bus stops very close to the property, so if you come without a car you can still easily venture further afield by bus.
The apartment also has it's own little patio garden to the front with table and chairs, perfect for enjoying a chilled glass of wine at the end of a summer's day.
