Description The Shipping Forecast: Kingsdown addremove

This charming home was once a favourite pub for weary fishermen at the end of their shift, right on the pebbles of Kingsdown Beach. If you fancy a real ale or cold pint after a day on the beach, don’t worry, the current local pub is just two doors down. If you want a bit more choice, head to the seafood restaurants and swanky bars of Deal, an hour’s walk along the seaside promenade, or an eight-minute drive.

The home itself is packed with little treats and surprises. There’s the beachside garden out the back, where you can pad barefoot from the outdoor dining terrace straight onto the shingle of Kingsdown Beach for a paddle in the sea. Then there’s the secret sauna, tucked down an old alleyway. The pretty little sunroom is furnished with floral armchairs and a vintage-style radio to listen to the Shipping Forecast while gazing out to sea. We love the kitchen and living room, which is packed with vintage pieces and has the air of an old fisherman’s cottage. Poking about through the extensive vinyl collection and browsing the cookbooks is a particular delight.

Home truths:
*One of the bedrooms is tucked into the loft where the ceiling slopes low
*The local pub is two doors down so you may hear some chatter from the beer garden during the day
*This home comes with allocated parking and the closest supermarket is an eight-minute drive away so having a car is recommended
*Let your host know if you're planning to use the sauna and they can let you know how it works
*All the bathrooms are on the first and second floors, so this place may not be suitable for those with limited mobility
