It is ideally situated to explore the Kent Coast and our week was filled with castles, cathedrals and the spectacular coastal path. The property had everything we could have wished for; thank you Mary for the little extras you left for us, they were much appreciated.

The flat has a good layout, it was clean and had great views. It was well equipped with everything you needed. We used St Margaret's at Cliffe as a base to explore Folkestone, Dover, Deal, Canterbury and Ramsgate. The weather was great for most of the week, which made all the difference and was a huge bonus. There was a very nice welcome pack from Mary, which was a lovely touch and much appreciated.

The apartment was very well equipped, with everything you could possibly need. Mary was very friendly and welcoming, and provided us with some âextrasâ which were very much appreciated. We will definitely be visiting again in the near future. It was a shame the weather wasnât better, but nevertheless we made the best of it. Sandra Brook
