This first-floor apartment sleeps four in two bedrooms and offers a modern escape, with a latter-day oast house look outside. It’s centrally located in the charming Kent town of Broadstairs, so you don’t have to go far to find things to do. The sandy beach is 100 metres away for bracing swims and sandcastle action. Or head to the green space of Victoria Gardens and mini golf over the road. Dickens is big in Broadstairs, and Dickens House Museum is around the corner, explaining his connection to this town and area. Get a culture fix at Turner Contemporary art gallery in Margate, 4 miles away, or take the kids to Dreamland amusement park there. Still on the coast, but 2.5 miles in the other direction, Ramsgate has more seaside delights and is also home to the tunnels used to shelter thousands during the war.
Upon entering this first-floor flat, you’ll be struck by how light and airy it is, which is helped by the light wood-effect laminate flooring throughout. All rooms here lead off a central hallway and where better to start than with the open-plan sitting/dining room and kitchen? The cosy corner sofa unit looks at south-facing French doors which open onto a wrought iron balustrade. The kitchen and dining area make self-catering easy with all mod cons and a lovely table seating four in comfort behind the lounge area. There’s a twin bedroom and a double bedroom which has its own en-suite shower room, plus there’s a shared bathroom with a bath for those holiday soaks.
This flat doesn’t come with its own outdoor space, but with the beach just at the end of the road, you can get your fill of fresh air, sand and family fun. Failing that, there are green spaces around, including Victoria Gardens. You can walk along East Cliff Promenade to neighbouring beaches too.
