About this cottage rental
Mary's Cottage is a very special seaside cottage. It has been beautifully renovated by its owners to provide a comfortable and relaxing space. Nestled amongst a cluster of fisherman's cottages on a private road, you step right out onto the seafront which is full of pretty coloured beach huts. The cottage has three good sized bedrooms, two bathrooms and a loo and basin on the top floor. The garden is a real sun-trap with a grass and patio area, perfect for a barbecue in the summer. This cottage is ideal for families and is very dog friendly too.

We spent a lovely week in Kent, and the location of the property is incredible - just a couple of minutes walk to the beach, in a beautiful village. We felt that the property was very well equipped, but it is a little tired, and it is definitely a house for someone who loves dogs. We don't have dogs, so the smell of dogs, and the amount of dog hair on the sofa was a problem for us. The letting agency were really quick to respond to us about it, offered to send someone over to clean again, and refunded our initial cleaning fee. Their customer service was faultless, and we would definitely book through them again.

We loved the location. Right next to a beach, and a pub.
The cottage is charming, clean, and a relaxing place to be. Could easily have spent more time there.
If we went back we'd be aware that taking bikes is a good idea. Then you could leave the car in an all too scarce parking space and enjoy a car free ride all the way to Deal.

There was a lot of pressure on this mini break. I wanted to bring my ailing 85 yr old mum and energetic 2.5 yr old daughter somewhere they would both be happy and well catered for. And iOS be able to tend to the different needs. It was perfect. The team at keepers cottage were fantastic talking through our very specific requirements.
Secure sunny garden
Multiple bathrooms
A hop and skip to the beach.
Kitchen well stocked
More than that the cottage is beautiful, homely, and very clean.
And I got to do what I love, morning swim in the sea.
And my husband and dog joined us and they too loved it.
A potentially stressful break was exactly the getaway we all needed. Thank you so much.

Had a lovely Easter weekend in this cozy cottage. In a lovely position right by the sea with a great pub nearby. Very comfortable inside & every thing you need. Short drive to Deal for shops, restaurants and the buzz of a small town. Kingstown was such a pretty village wi5h friendly locals. Thoroughly recommend a stay here.

A charming cottage very near the beach at Kingsdown, and perfect for a seaside break.
The kitchen is well equipped, and the furnishings are of good quality and contribute nicely to the comfy interior.
The area is quiet at night. There are no street lights in the area, which makes for pleasant stargazing on a clear night.
Keepers Cottages provides a very helpful and professional service.

We absolutely loved our stay at Mary's Cottage and would like to return. There were a few tweaks
that could be done - the door handle of the loo in the loft came off when we opened it on first day!
And the smoke alarm is soooo loud!! None of that mattered to us. The only slight deal breaker
is the very hard beds. Is there any way they could introduce toppers? Am I sounding like the Princess
and the Pea?

This charming cottage is attractively presented and ideally situated for the beach at Kingsdown and access to the coastal path.
The cottage was well equipped and comfortable. The rear garden is sheltered and private, easy to relax in.
There are two pubs nearby offering food and during my stay noise was not a problem, and it was essential to have the windows open at night!
Parking could be problematic, the space to the rear of the cottage was the better option. The stairs are steep, but there is a gate at the bottom of the flight.
If available I would stay there again.

Marys Cottage has the perfect location for Kingsdown, There's ample room but it's not really good value for your money/ the high rent. The big sofa in the living room is too old and needs to be replaced as well as the matresses in the twin bedroom (you could feel every single spring), so all in all it was not as comfy as it looks in the pictures. What was absolutely perfect was the heating in this awfully cold week. The team at Keepers Cottages do a fantastic job, praise to Camilla and Amy.

We had a lovely week at the cottage and weather was excellent. The extractor fan in the bathroom on the first floor doesn't work. On the information leaflet it says bin collection is Thursday but it's Friday also a rota of which bin and week would be a great help. We would definitely visit again in the future.

Cosy and compact
We enjoyed our stay in Mary's Cottage, so handy for the beach and the pub, and very dog-friendly.
We could have done with an empty cupboard in the kitchen, to store the food we had brought, there was nowhere to put it away.
The stairs are very steep, it would feel more safe and secure to have stair gates at the top of both flights of stairs.
The top bedroom felt a bit cramped, not much space for standing up straight.
The garden is lovely and all the furniture was very comfortable.

Lovely cottage!
Mary’s cottage was a special find, and even more prettier than in the pictures. It’s obviously a well loved place and is well maintained by the family. We felt very comfortable staying here and were able to relax, especially being so close to the sea! We had some family over for the day and they also fell in love with the place! Would definitely recommend to others and would try and stay here if we ever visited this part of the country again!
