Seal Cottage is a modern, two-bedroom house, centrally located and boasting a secluded garden.

Seal Cottage is in 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!

For your relaxation, you’ll also find board games and a Bluetooth speaker.
The ground-floor bathroom includes a toilet, basin, bath, and separate walk-in shower – ideal for refreshing after a day at the beach.
Upstairs, you’ll discover two cosy bedrooms: one furnished with a king-size bed and the other with twin beds. Both bedrooms offer drawers and hanging space.
Outside, a small garden awaits, complete with a table and chairs – an ideal setting for al-fresco dining or unwinding with a glass of wine in the evening sunshine.
