7 Stays with Spectacular Sea Views

Sleeps 8 | Pet-Friendly

A quaint retreat on the clifftop at Kingsdown, Victory at Cliffe is the epitome of coastal elegance, with classic, characterful decor and uninterrupted sea views from pretty much every single window. Our favourite spots for sea gazing include the window seat in the green bedroom, and the charming wooden bistro set beneath the wraparound veranda.

Sleeps 7 | No Pets

Tucked away into a secluded spot at St Margaret’s Bay, Sea Purse has the feel of an uber-luxe lair belonging to an international super spy. It’s little wonder, because Ian Fleming’s holiday home – and the very place he penned Moonraker – is next door. Drink in the view from countless picture windows, or step out onto the generous terrace – martini optional.

Sleeps 6 | Pet-Friendly

With total seclusion and even an old lighthouse in the grounds, Dolphin’s Leap has the drama and romance of a film set, except its real life. Sat atop the chalky cliffs, this beautiful home features sprawling lawns punctuated by an old walled garden (complete with BBQ and dining table) and beds of vivid wildflowers. An outdoor sauna and hot tub provide the perfect spaces for losing yourself in the sea views.

Sleeps 4 | No Pets

A grand apartment in Folkestone’s Leas area, Sea View Apartment is very aptly named. The sea beckons from behind beautiful sash windows, which offer various angles to enjoy the view. Don’t miss the sunrise here, best enjoyed sat in a comfortable armchair with good coffee and even better company.
