This charming ground-floor townhouse blends heritage with seaside ease, just moments from Broadstairs High Street. Once part of Lord Cochrane’s estate, it’s now a relaxed base for exploring golden beaches, coastal walks and the vibrant local dining scene. Spend your mornings browsing independent shops, your afternoons on the sand, and your evenings sampling cosy pubs or seafood spots nearby. The interiors may not have the 'wow' factor, but they're functional, comfortable, and thoughtfully arranged for a relaxing stay. Outside, there's a lovely dining area that’s perfect for sunny days and laid-back meals. With everything within easy reach, this is a welcoming spot for families or friends looking to explore Broadstairs and beyond.
