Deal, Kent
Little Chart
Tucked away in the seaside town of Deal, this charming, character-filled cottage offers a wonderfully private retreat for up to four guests. Through a gated entrance, you’ll find a large courtyard garden, a sun-drenched haven in Summer that offers direct side access to the beach. The cottage itself is bright and airy, with windows overlooking the courtyard from nearly every room. Original beams, and restored fireplaces give the space a cosy and inviting feel, while the thoughtful layout makes it an ideal choice for families, couples, or even golf enthusiasts exploring the local area. Upstairs, there are two bedrooms, as well as a landing with a desk, perfect for home working and you can even see a glimpse of the sea from the window. The first bedroom features a super king bed, while a second bedroom with a single bed and trundle is perfectly suited to children or teens. This is truly a home away from home, with warm, welcoming interiors - the perfect spot for unwinding after days spent exploring Deal’s historic streets, independent high street, and the beach. Little Chart is a choice that you'll want to return to time and time again.

Reviews
Deal
Little Chart is ideally located in Deal, offering a relaxed coastal setting within easy reach of the town’s seafront and open shoreline. The pebble beach and promenade are close by, perfect for early morning walks or unhurried evenings beside the English Channel. With wide skies and fresh sea air, this part of the coast invites a slower pace, while Deal’s compact layout makes exploring on foot both simple and enjoyable.
Deal’s award-winning high street is a particular highlight, known for its independent boutiques, antiques shops, artisan bakeries and excellent delis. Seafront pubs and seafood restaurants line the promenade, while cafés and wine bars are tucked into the Georgian streets behind. Deal Pier offers classic seaside views, and Deal Castle and Walmer Castle provide a fascinating insight into the town’s long naval and maritime history.
Beyond the town, scenic coastal walking and cycling routes stretch north towards Sandwich Bay and south to Kingsdown, offering expansive views and peaceful stretches of coastline. Deal railway station provides direct services to London, making Links Bay a superb base for both short breaks and longer stays exploring the Kent coast.
