This comfortable no-fuss apartment is ideal for a business traveller or couple looking to make the most out of Maidstone and its surrounding sights. Ideally located right next to the train station, you’ve got unbeatable transport links on your doorstep, not to mention a modern, well-equipped base to call home. 

Wake up and enjoy freshly brewed coffee from the kitchen. Then catch up on work at the table or plan the day ahead’s activities, with myriad things to see and do nearby – Leeds Castle is under fifteen minutes away by car, as is Mote Park, while the Maidstone Museum is just a short stroll from your door. After a day of work or play, enjoy dinner at one of the many local restaurants or come back home to cook up a homemade meal before enjoying a good night’s sleep in the comfy bed.

Set amongst a Medieval farmstead, this gorgeous barn conversion in the heart of the Sussex Weald is the perfect escape. Relax on your private, south-facing terrace, spot the local wildlife, or enjoy an alfresco lunch.

Inside, your hosts have done a fabulous job restoring this home whilst maintaining its original integrity. We love the exposed old brick walls and the lofty vaulted ceilings in the huge open-plan living space. When the Sussex evenings turn chilly, light the log burner, cosy up on the feather-filled sofa and enjoy a movie on the 65 inch Smart TV. Our absolute favourite feature here, though, is the sumptuous bedroom with its dramatic, dark panelled walls and super comfy natural linens.

Ideally located and close to the vibrant towns and picturesque villages of Sussex and the South Downs, this is the perfect rural retreat for those wanting to explore all that the area has to offer.

Let’s face it – it’s that ginormous indoor private pool and state-of-the-art Swedish sauna taking all the limelight at this barn conversion property, and rightly so. It’s a luxury few expect for a home nestled away in the quiet Kent countryside. In warmer months, slide the bifold doors right back to let the sunshine in and enjoy views of the pristinely manicured gardens beyond. You could easily while away the whole day – in fact, the entire week - padding between the pool, sauna, and outdoor sun loungers, with an occasional barbecue thrown in, to spice things up. And there are more welcome surprises inside this home too. The spacious light-filled lounge and dining area overlooks the swimming pool – handy for keeping an eye on poolside antics even when you’re indoors. And upstairs, there’s a secondary lounge with Juliet balcony doors revealing views of the gardens and distant rolling fields. With such vast countryside views, you could feel a million miles from anywhere here, but you’re not as remote as you first thought. The pretty neighbouring villages all have excellent pubs serving hearty food, and the bustling cathedral town of Canterbury is just over a twenty-minute drive away. And let’s not forget the coast - pack up a picnic, and you can be on the sweeping sandy shores of Folkestone in thirty minutes flat.

Get your fill of fresh coastal air at this welcoming cottage in Deal. An idyllic seaside getaway, it has everything you need for a relaxing stay. From its wood floors to its cosy fireplaces and contemporary decor, it’s all set to invite you into its warm and comfortable embrace. The farmhouse-style kitchen is where you’ll want to begin your days over hearty breakfasts and hot cups of coffee before catching some rays in the courtyard garden. Then grab your swimming costume and towel for an afternoon at Deal’s pebble beach (a four-minute walk away) or soak up some history at Deal Castle (also four minutes away on foot). Mosey around Deal High Street’s eclectic blend of shops (eight minutes) and take a day to visit Margate, a thirty-minute drive away. After whiling away your hours soaking up the sea air, come back home for sunset drinks in the garden. Then finish the night off with a relaxing soak in the freeform tub before retreating to your bedrooms for a blissful night’s sleep.

It's not just the mid-century furniture and muted colour palette in this home that takes influence from the Scandinavians. Out in the garden, there's an electric-powered sauna, as well as a bathtub on the patio that you can fill with cold water for the full authentic experience. Once you've finished flitting between the two, you can rest up in the cosy summer house. The host has put together a list of local therapists and this private space is perfect for treatments. Back inside, there's plenty of equipment to keep those particular about their coffee happy, including an espresso machine, milk frother, percolator, grinder and fresh beans from a local roaster. When you're feeling suitably caffeinated, the charming seaside town of Margate is waiting to be explored. The main beach takes about a quarter of an hour to reach on foot, as does the Dreamland Amusement Park, which often hosts concerts, club nights and events.

Two of the things that the Kent town of Deal is most famous for is its castle and stretch of pebbly coastline. As it happens, both of these things are visible through the big bay window in the lounge of this apartment. Back inside, the decor is simple, but every aspect has been executed so well. Wooden floorboards and white walls provide a classy backdrop against which colourful furnishings and photographic artwork pop off. The kitchen is pretty large considering the address is only for two, so you'll be able to flex your culinary muscles with no trouble. The presence of a bathtub is also sure to be appreciated after a long day frolicking about on the beach, which sits at the end of the street. There are plenty of pubs and restaurants within walking distance, too.

Go off gird for a while beside the sweeping coastal banks of the desirable Granville Cliff Estate in Seasalter - the location of this contemporary, airy home. The estate's private beach, just a minute’s walk from the property, takes centre stage here. Grab the home's paddleboard and two-person kayak and head for the sea, or try beachcombing for seashells - the coast goes on for miles. And you can always pop back to rustle up a picnic when tummies start to rumble or stroll along to the acclaimed Sportsman pub to feast on oysters. Back at the sea-facing chalet bungalow, an effortlessly stylish home awaits. Expect vintage mid-century furniture, unique artwork, and a modern kitchen made for action. Ideal for groups of friends and family coming together, you’ll love how spread out the home feels. The self-contained apartment upstairs with a separate kitchen will be a bonus for anyone looking for that extra bit of privacy. And there’s plenty to keep the kids entertained in the surprisingly spacious garden, with a trampoline & football goal. When you can finally bear to part from the private beach, central Whitstable is just a five-minute drive away (or thirty minutes on foot). Just be sure to make it back home as the sun sets over Whitstable – it’s quite the show.

Positioned directly on Dungeness's public beach, this former foghorn testing station has been fully renovated into a unique getaway for two. The nearby lighthouse's foghorn still works, although we much prefer the idea of waking up to the sound of the waves and seagulls. The sea is literally on your doorstep, and huge glass doors and a small terrace maximise the idyllic views. It's more of a studio than a one-bed, but we like the single-level layout. Although phone signal is patchy here and there's no proper TV, there is wi-fi for remote working and streaming. That said, the Bose speaker system, wood burner and teak bathtub are all you need to truly unwind. 

The Fog Signalling Building 

An utterly unique stay awaits you at this quirky apartment based in the heart of Maidstone, close to all the city centre attractions. This funky flat features jungle-themed boho décor throughout, including lush green foliage, animal artwork and a stunning water feature. This apartment also has all the modern amenities and fancy furnishings you need to make your stay as convenient and comfortable as can be. 

Wake up each morning and tuck into a delicious full English breakfast on your cute dining setup before venturing out and seeing what Maidstone has to offer. Maidstone Museum is right on your doorstep, as well as the shopping centre, and plenty of cafes, restaurants and bars to check out. There’s also some gorgeous countryside walks around the area, including one to Leeds Castle (believe it or not, it's in Maidstone!) where you can soak up some history.

After long days exploring the area, return to your trendy dwelling and tuck up in your cosy bed for a comfy night’s sleep, or cook up a delicious meal before heading back out to see what Maidstone’s nightlife has to offer.


Tropical Canopy

Enjoy day after day by the seaside with this contemporary beach home, boasting stunning views of the North Sea. There's so much to like here – the northern coast means you get sunset and sunrise on the water, there are plenty of areas to spread out and socialise, including a patio with a barbecue, and the location couldn't be much better, either. The town is a short stroll away, so you won't need to worry about running out of suncream, and Herne Bay is also excellently located for exploring Kent – you'll find Whitstable a few miles west, to the south is Canterbury, and to the east is Margate, all model day trip destinations.

The Sun & The Sand

With so much to discover about the rich history and nature of Kent, it would make sense to base yourself in a somewhat historic setting. A twelve-minute walk from Martin Mill train station, in a tiny village of the same name, this home is not only ideal for history buffs, but anyone who is a fan of a tipple. Built in 1610, this traditional boozer hosts locals every evening, but can also play host to four guests in its private apartment. Above this working pub, pick up a pint of English ale to sample before making your way around this striking abode. You’ll find rich leather sofas, vintage upholstered armchairs, a gramophone, Persian rugs, and cabinets and shelves full of curios. A truly unique stay, this home really transports you back hundreds of years, steeped in British tradition and exactly the eclectic vibe you’d hope for. Finish your pint in the back garden, with its picnic benches and lush lawns, where you'll probably find yourself chatting to one of the regulars. If you fancy an escape from pub life, drive ten minutes to Dover – visit its medieval castle, or admire its iconic White Cliffs.

English Barleywine

Taking up the two floors of a Victorian townhouse, this home has a lovely view of Deal Castle out through the window. Inside, there's plenty to hold your attention, too. The white walls and wooden floorboards work very well with the ample amounts of natural light that come in through the windows on either side of the long, open living space. There's a charming collection of nautical-themed pieces of artwork and trinkets dotted about the space, as well as a pair of bathtubs that are sure to tempt you upon coming back through the front door after a long day exploring this quaint seaside town. The pier is eight minutes' walk along the pebbly beach and you'll spot some of the wide array of restaurants and pubs that Deal has to offer along the way.

The Fossil Collector

Style meets comfort in this wonderfully located apartment in Margate. Designed in a chic, boutique-style manner, the whole space feels brilliantly modern while retaining a sense of vintage charm that so aptly reflects Margate’s seaside fame. We love the bright living room with its large windows that provide the most spectacular sunset views across the Winter Gardens and out towards the sea, best enjoyed on the sofa with a glass of wine or through the handy telescope provided. Full of fun decorative details that subtly nod to the coast, this space is made for relaxation and easy-going socialising. Our other favourite spot for sea-sighting is in the beautiful master bedroom where an armchair invites you to curl up on it with a good book and enjoy the rolling of the waves from yet another angle. Factor in the sunny kitchen and the sparkling blue and white bathroom and you’ve got everything you need for a blissful coastal break. Outside of your home, you’re just a six-minute walk from the Turner Contemporary art gallery, an eight-minute stroll from the Main Sands beach, while the Dreamland Margate amusement park is fifteen minutes on foot from your door.

It’s rare that a house in Whitstable has a garden this big, but that’s the bonus of being on the outskirts of town. True to any seaside sanctuary, there are deck chairs in the garden to soak up the sun and outdoor dining set up on rattan furniture. A big lawn allows kids to run free. 

Inside, the social space is huge. A mezzanine balcony and double-height ceiling in the open-plan living area created a sense of space and we love the boho and scandi-chic seating for all the family. A breakfast bar and kitchen island of raw wood mean there’s oodles of prep space and dining is at a rustic wooden table with bench-style seating. Bedrooms are massive, and kids will love the higglety pigglety layout of single beds secreted away beneath eaves and on mezzanine levels.

You’re on the outskirts of Whitstable, a twenty-minute walk (or five-minute drive) from the seafront where beach huts line the sand and fishing boats bob in the harbour. Here you’ll find plenty to see and do with fish and chip restaurants and ice cream shops galore. Outdoorsy types should hit the Crab and Winkle Cycle Way, right from the home’s doorstep.

This striking 18th century mansion provides the perfect setting for a large family gathering or to celebrate a special occasion. We love how the rooms have a modern touch to them while simultaneously paying homage to their past. Most of the bedrooms have an ensuite and look out over the beautiful gardens, which have lots of different parts to them – perfect for a game of hide and seek. If you fancy exploring the surroundings, both the coast and the historical pilgrimage site of Canterbury are about half an hour’s drive away. 

The Fitz Mansion

Sauna / Steam Room

In its past life, this unique home used to be a research base for triangulated radar – now, it’s an acclaimed designer gem, perfect as a base for a romantic getaway. Situated near a functioning lighthouse, just steps away from the beach and surrounded by the Dungeness Nature Reserve, this place is a haven of peace and natural beauty. The inside boasts Scandi elegance and simplicity – and with a sauna, a luxurious sunken bathtub and a wood burner, it’s easy to see why this home is such a hit. 

On My Radar 

Stepping into this cottage immediately makes you feel at home. Exposed wooden beams, soft neutral colours, and cosy furniture give this home an easygoing but cheerful feel. When you enter the ground floor, you'll find the warm living room with an impressive book collection. Pick one out for the trip, perfect for curling up on the sofa or when you're catching some rays on the beach, which is just a seven-minute walk away. The French doors open up to a Juliet balcony, inviting in a beautiful natural light. Breakfasts around the dining table are particularly lovely as the morning light glows over you, not to mention the beautiful garden view you have. 

Steps take you down to the lower ground floor, where you have a twee and colourful kitchen. The patio doors lead out to the enchanting garden, covered in bright foliage. In the warmer months, or whenever if you wrap up warm, the garden is a beautiful place to enjoy meals, drinks, or simply just to sit and enjoy the peace. Despite being just a three-minute walk away from Deal High Street, this home is away from the hustle and bustle and remarkably quiet. Ideal for a quaint seaside getaway. And you're mere steps away from the French deli, perfect for picking up indulgent breakfasts. When it comes to dinnertime, Deal has an array of local and international restaurants right on your doorstep. Or, fire up the barbecue at home for a relaxed evening in.

This whimsical and romantic home in Kent makes the perfect setting for a quintessential countryside stay. 

Set within a wild yet thoughtfully curated garden, this converted barn is filled with character and charm. From the moment you step inside, there’s a sense of tradition that invites you to pause and soak in the atmosphere. This is a wonderful place to slow down and enjoy the rhythm of countryside life. Whether you’re relaxing in the living room or cooking in the kitchen, there’s a sense of warmth and comfort that flows throughout this home. 

Spend your days exploring the surrounding countryside. There are wonderful walking trails from the door, as well as local pubs, cafes and shops in Westerham village – only thirteen–minutes away. History lovers will find themselves drawn to Chartwell House – the former home of Winston Churchill is a six–minute drive away. 

After a day in the fresh air, you’ll love the feeling of coming home to relax in the roll-top bath. Warm summer evenings can be spent in the beautiful garden, enjoying the playful sweetness of this setting. And on cooler nights, light up the wood-burning fire and share a cosy evening in traditional English style. 

The Rose in Bloom

Right on the edge of Orlestone Forest and a twenty-minute drive from the coast, this quaint bolthole has been plucked from the lid of a chocolate box. Your host, Caroline, has created a cosy, clever and modern delight of a home with a mix of rustic and mid-century furnishings. Two comfy armchairs are positioned in front of the sliding doors, so you can keep one eye on the television and the other on the wildlife busying itself in the immaculate garden. Tuck into breakfast in your private courtyard before taking a stroll past the pond and golden barley fields to the paddock, where Caroline’s Soay sheep are kept. Set out on a yomp along country lanes, stopping at gastro pubs along the way. And when it’s time to get some rest, we guarantee you’ll be out like a light as soon as your head hits the pillow of your cloud-soft bed.

Golden Barley

Games Room

This enchanting home is perfect for large family groups. The home is split between the main house – which sleeps ten – and a cosy cottage for two, ideal for a couple seeking a touch more privacy. There are plenty of quiet corners for moments of peace on this 15th-century estate, with excellent walks to enjoy right from your front door – your four-legged friends will love it here. The heated swimming pool and tennis court mean there’s lots to keep little ones entertained, too.

Explore the Garden of England with ease from this country farmhouse, based just an 8-minute drive from the sea and the centre of Deal. This stunning home boasts all the charming décor of a rustic countryside cottage, together with modern mod-cons and fabulous facilities, all to provide you with a quaint and comfortable stay.

Enjoy grand family breakfasts around the dining table and swing open the patio doors to let the crisp morning air in. Spend the afternoon exploring the 3 acres of landscaped gardens that you have access to and soaking up the surrounding Kent countryside. Little ones can have a blast on the trampoline, while bigger kids can enjoy a game of tennis on your own private courts. In the evenings, gather around the log fire for late-night conversations, or cuddle up on the sofa with a good movie or book.

You’re a short drive away from local attractions such as Walmer Castle, Deal Castle and the beach, and also within walking distance of a local pub – ideal for a pint after a ramble through Kent's green and pleasant landscapes.

A Pretty Big Deal

Hot Tub

Sea views and a hot tub — need we say more? This dog-friendly stone cottage was once part of the late comedian Spike Milligan’s home and, while it can be rented alongside the adjoining cottage for larger groups, we think it makes an ideal self-contained retreat. Both the airy open-plan living-dining area and the main bedroom open directly onto the garden, which features a barbecue for alfresco dining with a side of sea breeze. It's perfectly placed, too, with Rye, Camber Sands, and Hastings all within easy driving distance.

Rye Retreat

Tucked away on a quiet pedestrianised lane just off the winding streets of Deal, the flower-adorned way to the front door will feel like a hug for your soul. Stepping inside the home, you’ll notice a homely blend of traditional exposed beams and a brick fireplace that now houses a little wood-burning stove, alongside more modern furnishings.

With the beach minutes away, you might spend days sunbathing or walking the pier and promenade with soft serve in hand, but we recommend time at home to simply unwind with a good book as you curl up on the sofa. Take your morning coffee out into the small courtyard and enjoy the peace and quiet as you take your very first sip. Dine out there when the weather plays ball, and when it doesn’t, you can always kindle a fire and play board games or watch a movie together. 

There’s a number of boutique shops and cafes around to explore when you’re out and about, and with the local pub only a stone’s throw away, you can swing by on most days for a lunch and a pint.

Floral & Blue

Spread over three floors, this central Canterbury home offers up ample space for you to all relax between trips around the city. We love the largely minimalist design of the home, ensuring it's a great spot for uncluttering minds. In the large main bedroom, the two skylights are a nice touch. Next door you'll find a historic pub, which might cause a bit of disruption at night – that said, if you choose to visit you won't need to worry about finding your way home. You're also just a short walk from several parks and Canterbury's museums and cathedral.

Love & Lilies

Just a short stroll from the beach and Margate’s many shops, restaurants, and attractions, you’ll find this colourful home. Browse the artists' studios in the Old Town or have a walk along the coastal path to The Turner Contemporary.  The accommodation is set over three floors, with two open-plan sitting rooms and kitchens both with wood-burning stoves – one on the ground floor and the other on the lower ground. There are also two patios for alfresco dining or just enjoying the fresh sea air.

The Colourful Retreat

This home in Kent is one of a kind. The Grade II listed home sits on a 15th-century estate that boasts remarkable views of the North Downs – an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. You’ll have a heated swimming pool to look forward to, in addition to a tennis court. The house itself perfectly blends antique finds with modern comforts, so you’ll have everything you need for a cosy stay. Best of all, your four-legged friends are welcome to join you – and you don’t even need to leave the estate for delightful walks.
