Despite its peaceful rural location, this charming chalet is brilliantly placed for anyone looking to slow down in a natural setting, with days out to the beach easy to arrange. Kent’s coastline offers a great mix of sandy and pebbly beaches, with Sunny Sands in Folkestone (6 miles) for a classic seaside day, while Sandgate and Mermaid Beach (8 miles) are lovely spots for swimming and beachcombing. For the avid walkers in the group, take on a scenic walk along the famous White Cliffs of Dover (7.5 miles) before heading into Dover town to refuel with local delicacies. Wildlife lovers will be in their element too, with Port Lympne Safari Park and Howletts Wildlife Sanctuary both within a 14-mile drive.
