Some of the decor looks a bit tired and the cinema room could do with a bit more seating. However, very comfortable for the 8 of us, lovely to have such a big kitchen and we all enjoyed the hot tub! Unlike an earlier review, the house was very warm and we had no problem with hot water for showers. Easy walk into the village and along to Whitstable which was nice. Thanks for a great couple of days.

We had really high hopes for the house as there were amazing reviews and the pictures looked lovely. However when arriving the house was freezing cold, it was unbearably cold and we all had to keep our jackets on. We contacted the host who did tell us how to turn the heating on, but as the house is quite large, this took a long time and we all went to bed freezing that night. The heating was better the next day. On our first night we were also visited by a mouse, which ran into the dining room, I know this is sometimes unavoidable during the winter, but for the price we’re paying wouldn’t expect there to be rodents in the house. The bathrooms were all quite small and not very modern and the living areas didn’t have enough seats for a group of 10 of us. That being said the kitchen was lovely and was a nice part of the house for us all to socialise in and the local area was lovely and close to shops which was convenient. The host got back to us quite quickly regarding heating but didn’t offer any support regarding the mouse, so we had to deal with this ourselves. It was a nice stay, but it could’ve been better!

We had a fantastic stay - the location was super close to the beach and an easy walk to restaurants and shops. The house itself was big enough for us all and the hottub and cinema screen were great fun!
