    Excellent location and no traffic noise, car park close by. Small courtyard garden - if weather had been better we would have used. Hangers in bedrooms were very useful. Good comfortable seating areas

Company information

Whitstable-Holidays host Nicky lives in the fabulous seaside town of Whitstable, where she owns 3 quirky vintage inspired boutiques. She loves travelling with my husband, Adrian, walking her rather scruffy cockapoo, and spending time at the beach with her family . Most of all she likes to sit on her beach hut veranda and watch a Whitstable sunset with friends, and of course a glass of wine! All after a dip in our gorgeous (fresh) seas. As a host, and founder of Whitstable-Holidays, Nicky looks after her eight stylish family properties, with the help of husband Adrian and sons, Fred and Tom. They really are a local family business, living and breathing the town, and love to share their very special seaside home with others.

Neighbourhood information

Boatwright Cottage is just off Harbour Street, in the heart of old Whitstable, which is nationally renowned for its independent boutiques and fish restaurants. Right in the centre of activity, yet quiet and calm, and only a minute walk to the beach, and the harbour with its fishing fleet, boat trips and quaint artisan huts selling local crafts.
