Beachfront holiday rental in Westcliff-on-Sea

Walking to local shops and beach. Canterbury cathedral is a bus ride. Great shopping area there too. Thirty nine restaurant is absolutely lovely. Catering was easy for vegetarian by the owner. Most of all Sarah was an amazing host. Responded to queries immediately. I’ll definitely come back here.

Jason’s place was wonderful for our little family and super close to old town and new town. Sara’s was great for brunch Sunday morning and the Library playground and library were great for my little one on Saturday.

Lovely little hose a stones throw from the beach

Felt immediately at home in this gorgeous cottage by the sea. Loved staring out to sea from the comfort of the king bed in the main bedroom. The living room is cosy, the kitchen is fully equipped and bright and sunny in the morning. The bathroom is also bright with a good shower and cute bath. The lookout room and attic room with velux windows are all about the sea view too. Everything is walking distance. The car park space is ideal. I would definitely stay here again. It feels like home from home to me, but by the sea. Everything functions really well and has its own place. It feels like the owners may have lived here as it’s truly set up that way and not just a rental. Really happy I found this place! We’ll probably be back :)

Such a fabulous cottage in Old Leigh, nice interior, comfy beds, little sitting out area, close to shops. We would definitely return.

Tara was absolutely incredible. She was so responsive, helpful and accommodating before I had even arrived, and this continued long after my stay when I had left an item behind. The Thai Retreat was idyllic and looked exactly like the photos - a beautiful tiny home surrounded by lush gardens, creating the perfect private and quiet escape. Only a short 5-10 minute walk from the centre, and 20 minute walk from Tankerton. The location was perfect, and the amenities will not disappoint. I highly recommend this stay and look forward to visiting again for another weekend escape. Thank you so much for having us, Tara.

It was a beautiful house and Jessica was the best host - she was so kind and we couldn’t have asked for a better stay. Our kids were in floods of tears because they didn’t want to leave! It’s a perfect location and so lovely to be so close to the beach. We look forward to staying again, thank you Jess!

Perfect location a stone throw from the shore, near Neptune Pub (right on beach) and Wheelers Restaurant on the high street. Interesting independent shops, quirky coffee shops and pubs tucked in back streets. Wonderful beer garden and restaurants. A lovely get away just an hour away for me.

Great little spot if you are in the Leigh On Sea area

Visited Whitstable for a long weekend with our two kids. The cottage is in a great location, only a few minutes walk from the beach. Check in was easy with a lock box and the cottage was charming. Some had commented that the stairs were steep which they are, but fine for us and our kids (5 and 8 years old). Would happily come back again and would recommend.

Me and my family had a lovely time at the beautiful apartment. 5 minute walk from the seaside and surrounded by many shops. The apartment was spotless and felt like a home away from home. Modern kitchen and bathrooms, and had everything you would need for your stay. The host responded as soon as we needed him and was very kind to facilitate our needs.

We had a fantastic couple of nights. Very pretty, comfy bed, and everything was thought of for our stay. The location was excellent. Emma was extremely responsive to our messages and very helpful. We'll be back!

Great property and right in the centre of everything. Perfect for our family birthday celebrations from age 7 to age 80. A great find. There are three sets of stairs, but that is fine. Clean property, clear instructions and lovely furniture. The put up beds are very much for a child, and quite firm, but fine for our boy. We took two cars, and used Just Park for the second which made things so much easier over a bank holiday weekend.

We spent 5 nights at Debra’s beautiful home in Tankerton over my daughter’s half term holiday. It was exactly what we needed - a home away from home. The perfect space for her to study and relax together, while allowing me to catch up with friends and explore Tankerton, Whitstable and all the lovely restaurants and shops. Thank you so much Debra, I hope we’ll be back.

we had a lovely stay at Rosemary's Retreat. Very comfortable and quiet, away from main road. There was plenty of tea and coffee, including a coffee machine with Tassino pods. Rosemary was very welcoming, a first class host. we would definitely stay here again

Just returned from a really lovely couple of days at Windy CornerCottage. Location is fabulous. Easy to find and parking very easy in the space provided. Sea front 1 minute walk, nearest shop 5 minutes. Plenty of pubs restaurants coffee shops within easy walking distance including co op and Sainsbury’s local. Windy Corner cafe is on the ground floor below the flat great for a snack or coffee. Despite proximity to everything location is wonderfully quiet and relaxing. The apartment itself is very comfortable and homely. Slept brilliantly in the double bed. Didn’t use the twin room but it looked very comfortable too. Bathroom was clean with lovely walk in shower and kitchen/ living room comfortable and clean. We did not cook or use washing machine so cannot comment on these. Communication was great from the minute we made the booking. We collected and returned keys to the cafe who couldn’t have been more helpful but there is also a lockbox if needed. Overall experience faultless.
