Quirky bungalow on coastal walk with distant sea views. Fully secure garden.

Welcome to our quirky holiday home located in Bishopstone. We are a 6 minute stroll through the fairy woods to the beach, then a further 25 minute walk to Herne Bay Town. From the bungalow we are a 25 minute walk to Reculver Towers.
We just love the view of the fields from the front of our bungalow and the distant sea views from the back. We are just a six minute stroll through the fairy woods to the beach.
We welcome up to two well-behaved dogs and our bungalow sleeps up to 6 people (plus a baby in a cot).
In bedroom 1 we have a kingsize bed and TV with Netflix & Amazon prime
In bedroom 2 we have a double bed with the added benefit of an en-suite shower room & toilet.
In bedroom 3 we have a trundle and single bed which can be set up as a twin room or put together to create a kingsize bed.
There are two bathrooms, the main shared one and one in the en-suite bedroom (both of which have large shower enclosures).
We have a secure enclosed garden with table and chairs for al fresco dining and large garden games, including the giant chess set.
Bedding and towels are provided, including plenty of dog towels to wipe/wash down our furry friends (if you have one) :)
We have a type 2 EV charger for your convenience, please just ask us for the code (a cost charge via bank transfer after stay will be applied). Our home is ideally situated for people who love the outdoors, enjoy walks and being near the coast. We are close enough to Herne Bay Town and just a short drive away from Whitstable and Canterbury along with some of the other lovely Kent towns.

Beautiful Bungalow with lots of extra touches
Tina was a perfect host and dealt with any queries immediately. The bungalow is fantastic and we loved the decor. We really enjoyed the little extras such as the giant chess and retro games tablen and were grateful for the cupcakes and seed bombs on arrival. I highly recommended this property and would happily stay there again.

Family break
This property is in a great location. It was spotlessly cleaned and had everything you could possibly need. The owner had liaised with me before arrival and had toddler proofed the property so we could relax and enjoy the space. So many quirky touches that enhanced the experience. This was a family break with a toddler, her mother, grandmother and great grandmother, and each generation was comfortable and enjoyed the stay.

A great weekend
We had a great time at this bungalow. On arrival the accommodation was very clean, everything we needed, lots of quirky things with lots of games for our granddaughters. The bungalow is in a good position for walking if you wish to, also in a beautiful location. We would definitely recommend this accommodation.

Beautiful Bungalow
A Lovely light spacious bungalow, with stylish and humorous touches throughout the space. A large well equipped kitchen with everything you could ever need. All comfort was considered and the creative fun element extended into the generous size garden. Set in a tranquil area with un-spoilt beautiful beaches within walking distance. We couldn't have asked for a nicer break. We'll definitely be visiting again soon.

Excellent holiday home
The house is spacious and well fitted out. The quirky decor makes a refreshing change to the basic furniture and fittings found in most holiday homes. The whole house was very clean and comfortable and the kitchen is fully equipped. The welcome cupcakes were delicious. It’s an easy 10 minute walk through the woodland to the beach. I would highly recommend this property to families and friends.

Just Gorgeous
Firstly the hosts are excellent. So kind and generous and great communications. It was my mother’s 84th birthday and they left her a card, present, banner and cakes , just brilliant she was so delighted. Secondly the house is just fabulous. It’s so well equipped and the deco makes you feel like you are in a pent house suite. The location is so lovely, so close to the beach and great dog walks and so near so many shops and retail parks. I really can’t recommend it highly enough. It was our second time staying there and we will go back again!!

Cross/ODonovan holiday
I wish to speak for both families and say what a super place we have stayed. We felt that this was a real home, very welcoming, comfortable, very well equipped, clean and Tina provided all that was needed. The decor was great and amusing, even the pink stag! The kitchen was very well equipped. The seating was comfortable both inside and out. Wonderful games both inside and out. Facilities for the dog were perfect. We all felt that we have had a holiday and would not hesitate to come again. Well done. 10/10

Sassy stay!
This property is amazing. One of the best Vrbo places we have stayed. The style if the place is very classy, spotlessly clean and special touches that make it a great getaway. We used all the fun stuff, including the roulette table. Close for nice walks along the coast into reculver and Hernebay. Definitely going back.
