Sherbet Cottage - 3 Bedroom Fisherman's Cottage, Whitstable, Kent

Sherbet Cottage is a newly renovated fisherman's cottage located just metres from Whitstable's famous harbour, pebble beaches and independent shops and boutiques. With all of the comforts of your home, but by the sea. Sherbet Cottage is a well equipped and beautifully presented cottage with the added bonus of it's own parking space to the rear of the property. The cottage is beautifully decorated in neutral tones sympathetic to the coastal surroundings. The cottage boasts a south facing garden area with family seating, perfect for al fresco breakfast, lunch or dinner on the supplied Weber Smokey Joe BBQ. A favourite with small kids and big kids alike is Sherbet Cottage’ very own mini traditional sweet shop, where guests can indulge in a large range of old fashioned, sweet shop favourites.... and of course the reason behind the name “sherbet cottage”!

Great location not great value for money
The owner was great with communication and the location of the house was perfect. The condition of the house itself was a bit below our expectation given the price and the photos - marks on furnishings, out of date sweets in the jars, no coffee machine, weeds in the garden and a thick layer of moss on the garden table. Overall left the sense that it could do with some modernisation /TLC or be cheaper to reflect the current condition.

A lovely cottage
You won’t be disappointed if you book this comfortable well equipped cottage. My friend and I stayed for two nights. We enjoyed soaking up the local atmosphere, walking around the charming town, a coastal walk, and sampling the local oysters.

Lovely cottage, great location
We really enjoyed our stay. As well as three good sized and comfortable rooms, the cottage has good communal areas including a garden that catches the sun at breakfast time. It is only 5 mins walk from the beach and the high street. Check in was easy, and communication quick and easy. Would definitely return.
