The lively town of Whitstable, which is known as the “Pearl of Kent”, dates back to before the Domesday Book. Its seaside location makes it ideal for watersports all year round, and its fishing heritage is reflected by the Oyster Festival, which takes place every July. The buzzing local museum/art gallery introduces around six new exhibitions each year, and has a fabulous coffee shop. Whitstable Castle dates back to the 1790’s, and hosts events all year round including a big May Day celebration with contributions from local musicians and artists. The town is home to a small, independent brewery, and any need for retail therapy will easily be satisfied by the range of both national stores and charming small, independent shops. Whitstable is also home to The Pearsons Arm, a gastropub owner by celebrity chef Richard Phillips and nearby in Seasalter is the Michelin star-awarded gastropub, The Sportsman which is also well worth a visit. The city of Canterbury, with its fine 6th century cathedral is just 7 miles away; also nearby is Herne Bay, from where on a clear day you can see as far as Southend and the Isle of Sheppey.

Very enjoyable stay. Great location for getting around Whitstable and to the beach on foot. Found Whitstable very dog friendly and would definitely book again.

The parking is a problem but we booked a space through Just Park which was a short walk away. The listing gives the impression there is a freezer but it is just the freezer compartment in the fridge. Also it lists a wine cooler and there isn't one. The TV was a challenge as it was a very smart device but we just asked Alexa and she helped find what we wanted. We would definitely book again.

As the weather was very hot the bedroom was very hot. A fan provided would be nice. An airer provided would of helped to dry towels etc outside. The grass would of been nice cut and garden maintained. Parking was difficult. A permit would of helped so much. We would of payed extra for that.
