Broadstairs, Kent
Seas the Day
Seas the Day is the perfect choice for a wonderful family holiday by the sea. This large holiday home has a spacious and light double aspect sitting room with doors to the sunny garden for warm sunny days and an inviting wood burner for cosy cooler evening; a large kitchen for socialising over home cooked meals, and four good sized bedrooms, one with the biggest ensuite we have seen.And a short ten-minute walk brings you the picturesque bay at Dumpton Gap, and the coastal footpath where a left turn leads you to Margate and a right turn to Broadstairs town centre and further to Ramsgate, all along the top of the white cliffs with spectacular views across to France on a clear day.Add to this the private driveway with parking for two cars, and the property being pet friendly, there’s nothing to stop you loading up the family and dog in the car and heading to the coast for a memorable holiday. Or leave the car at home and take the train to Dumpton Gap station for a short five-minute walk to the property.Broadstairs has so much to offer guests young and not so young. The Seven Bay beaches of Botany, Kingsgate, Joss, Stone, Viking, Louisa and Dumpton Gap, all offer different things - some are dog friendly, some child friendly, some great for surfers, other for photographers. The town itself has some lovely architectural buildings, lots of Charles Dickens connections and some great art galleries, cafes and restaurants. It has an amazing fish company with its own fleet of ships, where the catch of the day is sold every morning, and there is even a quirky small independent cinema.
