About this property

Coastal retreat on the beach in Kingsdown, near Deal

Cliffeside Cottage is a quintessential seaside bolt hole situated in the picturesque village of Kingsdown. New owners have recently lovingly restored and refurbished the cottage; soft textures, botanical fabrics and coastal furnishings give a luxury and relaxing feel. Cleanse away a day on the beach in the ground floor bathroom before drying off beside the woodburner. This luxury cottage is perfect for romantic weekends or family holidays by the sea. Enjoy the fresh interior and luxe style, and relish knowing little ones are made to feel just as at-home as you are with the selection of toys and games that the owners have left. The pebble beach that stretches to Deal is just yards away down a private road called 'Shrimp Lane' where characterful beach huts lie. Step through the picket gate into a delightful pebble front garden and the quaint porch sets the scene for your beach retreat.

This coastal property offers comfortable accommodation spread over three floors. The rooms at the back benefit from fantastic sea views and there is a fun porthole window in the bathroom. Outside, there is a secluded garden with table and chairs just right for lazy breakfasts in the sunshine. After an invigorating coastal walk this bolt hole offers a warm welcome home. If you enjoy reading you are spoilt for choice - borrow a book from the bookcase and curl up on the sofa or flick through a Coast magazine. There is a desk and chair set up at the cottage, which provides an ideal 'working from home' set up.

Kingsdown is a charming pebble bay sandwiched between St Margaret's Cliff and Walmer; with Deal being only 15 minutes away on foot. Your holiday home is located right on the sea front, perfect for those looking to have a seaside break away. Kingsdown is a great place to get away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. It's a very pretty village, filled with gorgeous properties and a couple of friendly pubs to grab a bite to eat and drink in the sunshine looking out to the cliffs and the sea. Whether you're looking for a family fun summer holiday or a winter’s break to enjoy cosy evening's in, whilst listening to the waves crashing against the pebbles, you are bound to enjoy your stay in Kingsdown.

Perfect Xmas Location
Property was excellent for a short stay at the beach. Could not fault location, close to a couple of great pubs and an easy walk to Walmer Castle. Would not hesitate to stay here again. Nice touch having a Christmas tree in the lounge too

8/10 Good

Cliffeside Cottage weekend stay.
It would be helpful to let guests know that the one bathroom is downstairs at the back of the property through the dining room and kitchen. The bedrooms are on the 1st floor and 2nd floors and the stairs are quite steep. This wasn't a problem for us. The cottage was cosy and in a fantastic location. The decor is lovely and it has all the facilities needed. The fridge temperature was on the warm side. The electricity tripped twice but we fixed it. It may be connected to the oven? The garden was good to have and has a rear gate to access the pathway to the Beach. We'd recommend the popular Zetland Arms and best to book.Parking was straight forward outside the property. There was also a nearby local shop. We (5) had a great weekend there.

A great break in a terrific location
We very much enjoyed our stay at Cliffeside: the pleasant and well equipped house and garden is in an excellent location, near to Walmer and its castle and Deal with its unexpected delights. We also found the team at Keepers Cottages incredibly responsive and helpful. In short, we would have no hesitation in booking again.

A special long weekend
We enjoyed a 3 night stay to celebrate a special birthday. The cottage is really beautifully decorated and we appreciated the good quality linens, Neom fragrance and Scottish Soap Co. toiletries. There was ample hot water and heating when we needed it. The village is pretty and peaceful and the beach great. We enjoyed walking to Deal and along the clifftops. We would love to stay again. The only suggestion we'd make is a more secure/robust back gate.
