About this property
This delightful detached bungalow offers couples and families, with older children, the chance to stay in a light, spacious holiday home in the lovely village of Seasalter. Beautifully presented to the highest of standards this two bedroom bungalow offers a warm home-from-home feeling from the moment you open the door. The owners of this lovely bungalow live next door and have created a self-catering haven for those looking for space, peace and quiet. From the comfy seating in the sitting room where you can settle down with a DVD and an evening together, to the large fitted kitchen with lots of workspace to rustle up some delicious meals during your stay, then shared around the table whilst discussing the day's experiences, this cottage combines style and comfort. In this cottage the aim of the owners is to make your holiday a truly relaxing experience, including somewhere to sit and read either before bedtime or if rising early in the morning, the conservatory with its views over the well-kept rear, south-facing garden, is ideal. Just outside the door of your cottage there are walks galore. Why not take a stroll along the shoreline where you may see sailboats and windsurfers, or further along the coastline there is Westgate-on-Sea with its beautiful sandy beaches? Whitstable is within walking distance if you enjoy a good walk. However, if a day just lazing and listening to the waves against the shore is your idea of a relaxing treat, take a picnic, beach towel and sun lotion and spend it on the beach at Seasalter. If you enjoy other leisure activities, why not enjoy a day of cricket at the Kent County Cricket Club in Canterbury, or theres indoor bowling at the Oyster Indoor Bowling Club and outdoor bowling at Whitstable Castle? So whether you are looking for a holiday to relax and unwind, while others race and run, or join in the games and have some fun, Echo Beach offers a perfect place to stay at any time of the year.
Seasalter is a pretty village located by the sea on the north coast of Kent, between the towns of Whitstable and Faversham. The beach at Seasalter is mainly shingle and sand and therefore quieter than the more sandy bays at Westgate-on-Sea which is just along the coast. Public transport is very well covered in this village with regular buses to Canterbury, Whitstable and Faversham, each place offering visitors a day full of interest.

It was very clean and comfortable. Always lovely hot water and central heating which made it very snug. Two comfortable reclining leather settees and very comfortable beds with nice bedding. The kitchen is very well appointed with nice quality pots and pans. There was everything we needed. A lovely bright conservatory where we enjoyed our morning coffee with our friends. We would definitely stay at Echo Beach again if we return to Whitstable.

Short drive into Whitstable. Everything we needed we found in the bungalow. We will return to this bungalow in the future.
