About this property
Seal Cottage is a modern, two-bedroom house, centrally located and boasting a secluded garden.
Seal Cottage enjoys an ideal location for experiencing the best of Whitstable. Bright and warm, quiet and peaceful, it's just a few minutes' walk to the bustling high street, offering a variety of restaurants, bars, and boutiques. The beach is also just a short walk away, along with Whitstable's harbourside market, where you can purchase the fresh catch of the day!
You check in using a key box code. I am however local to the area, so if you need anything or have any questions, I am only a phone call away and a short drive!
This vibrant seaside town offers a base to visit so many places. Take a boat trip from the Historic Harbour to visit the WWII forts or see the bay from a different view point. Enjoy a day at the beach and try your hand at catching crabs from the breakwaters, especially at high tide. Stroll around the beautiful Whitstable Castle grounds with a fun 'pirate' themed play park. or visit the family-friendly local museum.
