  • Charming 1930s seaside family holiday home with stunning sea views and direct access to the beach
  • Curl up by the wood burner for cosy evenings in
  • Within easy reach of the beautiful City of Canterbury, RSPB reserve at Dungeness and the Romney Hythe & Dymchurch railway
Property code: 46913

This quaint 1930s cottage is located on St Mary’s Bay in Dymchurch, Kent. Within a few minutes’ walk of the sandy beach, it is also close to the shingle beach RSPB reserve at Dungeness. Despite its quiet, rural location St Mary’s Bay is perfect for those looking for some retail therapy, thanks to its location within a 25 minute drive of Rye, famed for its antique shops and welcoming pubs. For families, the one-third size steam engines of the Romney, Hythe and Dymchurch Railway depart from close by and Port Lympne Reserve and safari park is just a short drive away.

On arrival at the property you will immediately be struck by the open space and tranquil location. Steps leading up to the front door bring you to the porch, a handy place to leave sandy shoes after a day at the beach. Stepping into the lounge area, with its natural wooden floors and cosy rug, your eye will be drawn to the open views over the garden to the sea. You will also find a woodburner, TV and Wi-Fi. The comfortable kitchen offers a dining table and has all you need to prepare a hearty meal after a day out, including electric oven and hob, microwave, dishwasher, kettle and toaster. There is a separate larder which houses the freezer and washing machine. The downstairs bedroom can be made up with either a single or double bed and also benefits from those beautiful sea views. Also downstairs are the bathroom, featuring an original roll-top bath and a separate shower room with electric shower. Upstairs you will find the sanctuary-like master bedroom with double bed and, again, more of those sea views. Again the second bedroom enjoys sea views from its twin beds.

Outside the property is surrounded by a wild seaside garden, with a path leading straight down to the promenade and on to the beach. There is a table and chairs in the garden and a BBQ for the perfect end to your day.

Another lovely week at Greycot. Weather forecast wasn't great but it ended up being another lovely week. We all loved the beach walks along the sand and our dog enjoyed running through the sea. We have already booked again for next year which will be our fourth time of staying at Greycot,

We had a really relaxing holiday at Greycot, walk down the garden and through the gate and there's the sea and the beach....wonderful! Excellent for walking. Geycot has everything you need for a relaxing stay. Lovely fresh fish at The Dungeness Fish Hut and we also eat at the Fish Shack next door....both highly recommended. Lots of lovely places toRead more visit and some really pretty villages. Would happily return for another holiday. Hide

We loved our first stay at Greycot. The cottage feels very homely, its really peaceful and having access to the beach just at the end of the garden is perfect. Helen was wonderful to deal with throughout and thoughtfully out up Christmas decorations too. Were looking forward to another stay next year.

This was our second stay at Greycot and the third is already booked. We were lucky with the weather again and enjoyed the sheltered garden in the sun. The rabbits in the garden were lovely to watch. We enjoyed the morning and evening walks along the beach at low tide. The welcome pack was very much appreciated. We are looking forward to being back Read morenext year. Greycot is a peaceful location to relax and unwind, but still with lots to do a short drive away. it is well equipped and is homely. Hide

Wow. What a lovely cottage. Right by the sea - you can hear it at night with the windows open. Well equipped & very cosy. Particularly loved having morning coffee & evening drinks in the glass porch when it was just a bit too cool to sit in the garden. Will definitely be booking again.
