Dover Marina Hotel & Spa, Tapestry Collection by Hilton

8/10 Good

"Room was clean but floor was very wonky staff at reception very helpful The sauna and hot tub was excellent after long drive disappointed not to be given house coats as other guests had been given then Parking was excellent and a great price for 24?hrs not a rip off like other hotels Will definitely stay here again lovely location"

Dolphins Leap, St Margaret's at Cliffe

10/10 Excellent

"WOW just Wow!!! This property is absolutely incredible! The listing really buried the lead which is the phenomenal expansive piece of land that this gorgeous home sits on. Right on the edge of the White cliffs, we enjoyed magical moonlit evenings, family bbq on the green egg smoker, campfire marshmallows with from gorgeous welcome amenity basket (which also included a bottle of Kentish wine, gourmet crisps, gourmet chocolate, and other sweet & savory snacks). We loved the cheeky art pieces in the sitting room downstairs ;) The kitchen is fully kitted out and we had everything we needed to prepare and serve large family dinners and really enjoy the dining spaces both inside and outdoors. They even left oat milk creamer for morning coffee, delicious Grind coffee pods, and laundry & dish detergent. The bedrooms were well ventilated and high-ceilinged with gorgeous Victorian-style decor. The gardens on the property were so amazing as well; a true paradise and such a special place we look forward to returning to. The property location is very tricky to find as GPS sometimes tries to take you down pathways that are closed off to public access, and the roadways are quite bumpy. But once you get there you won’t want to leave. Truly a wonder. I feel so grateful that the owners have shared this beautiful slice of heaven with travelers coming to see the magic of the Kent coastline and White Cliffs. Much appreciation also to Keepers Cottages for providing early check-in and late check-out!"

Sea Purse, St Margaret's Bay by Keepers Cottages

10/10 Excellent

"This is such a special house and a privilege to stay in a much loved family home. The interior design is gorgeous. The location is incredible and great to swim every day and hitch the ladder down to the shingle. Every day I said ‘wow’ as the view of the sea and sky from the huge windows is breathtaking. Peaceful location, beautiful sunrises. 2 min walk to the Coastguard pub, Deal pier kitchen for brunch, great walks in the area. THANKYOU !"

6 bedroom accommodation in St Margarets Bay, Dover

10/10 Excellent

"We love staying at The Cottage! It is a home away from home that feels comfortable from the moment you walk in. We have stayed several times and have never been disappointed. On this recent trip, we parked our car, unloaded our bags and didn't get in the car again until we left. We walked everywhere, ate at the cafe/tea room and at the Coastguard Pub as well as bought simple food for easy meals at home in the village shop. We stayed in a different bedroom than we normally use, because it had a TV for some late night comedy or news as we readied for bed. The wood burner in the lounge kept things cozy and warm. We always wish we could stay longer when we stay at The Cottage. Henry, the host, is always so friendly and helpful. We can't wait to go again and are very grateful to be able to spend time in this lovely home!"
