Coastal retreat on the beach in Kingsdown, near Deal

Stayed over a period of unplanned works at our property. Despite being arranged at very short notice this beautifully appointed cottage was a real haven from the chaos. It was very well equipped, spotlessly clean and comfortable and felt much larger on the inside than it looks. The secure garden (for our little cockerpoo) led right to the short path to the beach. We were staying in January in icy temperatures and it was warm and welcoming. With the direct views straight to sea from the rear rooms, it would be an enchanting place to stay at any time of the year. Highly recommend.

We have stayed with Keepers Cottages many times and this was one of the best stays yet. Cliffeside Cottage is the most charming seaside holiday rental. You are literally a few steps to the pretty Kingsdown beach. We were so lucky as we had amazing weather so we swam every day and had picnics on the beach. We walked to St Margarets Bay twice which was the most beautiful walk up on the cliffs. We ate out several times in Deal. The cottage was comfy, cosy and idyllic. We love staying with Keepers Cottages, the team are so helpful and friendly and we will be back soon. Thank you for a truly magical stay.

Gorgeous little cottage in fabulous location. Really enjoyed our stay. Children loved the toy cupboard. Great walks nearby. Thank you!

What a lovely stay we had! Great location too.

Lovely cottage . Very cosy and well equipped . Could walk out of the garden to the beach with the dog . Great break

Property was excellent for a short stay at the beach. Could not fault location, close to a couple of great pubs and an easy walk to Walmer Castle. Would not hesitate to stay here again. Nice touch having a Christmas tree in the lounge too

It would be helpful to let guests know that the one bathroom is downstairs at the back of the property through the dining room and kitchen. The bedrooms are on the 1st floor and 2nd floors and the stairs are quite steep. This wasn't a problem for us. The cottage was cosy and in a fantastic location. The decor is lovely and it has all the facilities needed. The fridge temperature was on the warm side. The electricity tripped twice but we fixed it. It may be connected to the oven? The garden was good to have and has a rear gate to access the pathway to the Beach. We'd recommend the popular Zetland Arms and best to book.Parking was straight forward outside the property. There was also a nearby local shop. We (5) had a great weekend there.

We very much enjoyed our stay at Cliffeside: the pleasant and well equipped house and garden is in an excellent location, near to Walmer and its castle and Deal with its unexpected delights. We also found the team at Keepers Cottages incredibly responsive and helpful. In short, we would have no hesitation in booking again.

We enjoyed a 3 night stay to celebrate a special birthday. The cottage is really beautifully decorated and we appreciated the good quality linens, Neom fragrance and Scottish Soap Co. toiletries. There was ample hot water and heating when we needed it. The village is pretty and peaceful and the beach great. We enjoyed walking to Deal and along the clifftops. We would love to stay again. The only suggestion we'd make is a more secure/robust back gate.

We had a very cosy and comfortable stay at cliffeside cottage, loved the long walk into Deal with it’s many excellent restaurants to choose from. The Zetland pub was fantastic for a drink after our dog walk. The decor in the cottage was very tasteful and we all had a wonderful NY break! Bathroom downstairs was the only negative and perhaps a Nespresso coffee machine would be a nice touch. Thank you for allowing us to enjoy your home!
