Lilly Cottage - Fisherman's Cottage Whitstable

During hot spells, the town of Whitstable runs out of water without warning. This happened in 2025 and is now happening in 2026. This property (and all properties in Whitstable) would benefit from having litres of standby, back up water for brushing teeth and making tea. Or plan for water delivery when outages occur.

Cottage just as described, walking distance to all amenities, would highly recommend.Thank you for a lovely stay.

Pristine cottage in great location. Recommend without hesitation!

It was all very nice :-)

Beautifully quirky, very clean and very helpful advice and instructions.Glorious little garden.The whole property is obviously loved and well looked after

We very much enjoyed our stay in the lovely Lilly Cottage. It is within walking distance of all sorts of restaurants, the seaside and other local attractions. It is well-maintained, the beds are comfortable, and everything is nicely renovated and new. Dale and Nina are great hosts, and very responsive to little questions that came up over our stay.

Everything you could need for any length of stay. Especially happy with the hand wash - may seem a small thing but meant a lot.Garden is a lovely sun trap.

A friend and myself had a three night stay in Lily Cottage which was just enough to see the local area. The cottage is decorated to a high standard and all the fittings and kitchen equipment are also of a high standard. The lovely sunny secluded little garden is a real asset too. I would highly recommend staying here!

We had a wonderful stay. Great location and very cozy home. Everything was perfect

We had an absolutely brilliant time, staying at Dale and Nina’s. Really liked the decor of the house and the location is perfect. Everything worked well and no issues with parking close to the property as we arrived later in the day. Our children are 3 & 5 and loved the place too. We’ll defo be back, thanks for having us.

Lovely contemporary and spotless cottage, well equipped and in a great location. Dale the host, was great with recommendations for places to visit and restaurants. Loved it!

Charming. Adorable. Every need anticipated. Delightful.

We chose this because it was just off the main street and location was the main factor. Parking was OK (we were told there was no off street parking with the property). The house was attractive and beautifully curated - the photographs were accurate - with plenty of nice touches. The ground floor wet room was excellent and because of the steep stairs, the upstairs bathroom was handy for the bedroom, but we didn't shower there. With just the two of us we used the clothes storage in both rooms - if four people were staying, hanging and drawer space might be an issue - but we never travel light and had to pack for the changeable weather. The heating/hot water was good and plentiful. The kitchen was well equipped but a bright 'white' light for cooking during the evening when there is no natural light, would be helpful, but we only cooked dinner one evening. Due to the weather we had no opportunity to use the garden, but during the summer it would be good to have the use of the pleasant, private, open space. We ate at three of the local restraurants which were all excellent and in the centre of Whitstable, but I would recommend booking ahead which I did (we ate out Fri/Sat/Sun evenings). I have some mobility issues and the stairs were challenging for me but I am recovering from surgery and need to stretch myself. I am sure these would not be a problem for the more fit and able bodied. Would we return - yes. The host responded very promptly to queries beforehand, which was good

Lovely house in whitstable - good sized property with a garden. Plenty of space for 4 adults. Design was great and modern - has a very well equipped kitchen too. Only compliant for us was that the beds were a bit hard for our liking, but that could just be personal preference. Would recommend staying here.

Excellent well cared for cottage in an amazing location. Only downside was the steep stairs. Ok if you don’t suffer from mobility issues but I am not as nimble as I once was so caution was required
