Just had a fantastic week at driftwood cottage, a bit off putting from the front but it’s lovely inside, spotlessly clean, very comfortable and right on Sandgate beach. The cottage has everything you need for a great holiday, can’t wait to return.

A place to relax, look at the sea and watch the world go by. The front of the property is on a bus route but once you are inside the cottage and when sitting outside overlooking the sea it is peaceful. Very well equipped for all your needs.

We had the most wonderful few days staying at Driftwood cottage, such a beautiful cosy home away from home. The house had everything we needed, and there were even some lovely welcome goodies on arrival. Was lovely to be right on the beach, the view from the master bedroom was stunning to wake up to every morning. A blissful stay. Hopefully will return in future!

Amazing cottage right by the sea. Stayed for three nights with my children and mum. It was a dream to be able to sit in the garden right next to the beach while the children played in the beach like it was their own private garden. The house had everything we could need down to blankets and beach towels. It was very comfortable and homely.
Only slight issue is the bathroom door was very hard to open once closed maybe something to look into.

We have had a superb weekend on the seafront at Driftwood Cottage and feel as though we've been away for a week! The cottage is really beautiful and very well equipped. We were greeted by some lovely goodies including a bottle of bubbly to celebrate our arrival. We absolutely loved morning coffee on the little terrace / sea wall looking out to sea, after an early morning swim. The location is perfect - a lovely 45 minute walk along the seafront in to Folkestone one way and a similar distance to Hythe the other. Lots to do and enjoy but equally, we would have been happy to spend time at the cottage enjoying the sunset.
Thoroughly recommend - we have stayed at Driftwood twice now and will definitely be back again!

We had the most wonderful 4-week stay at this lovely cottage! It was an absolute delight - well-equipped, incredibly comfortable, and just steps away from the beautiful beach. I can't recommend it enough!

The cottage was easy to find as it is in Sandgate High Street. We don't drive so having the bus stop right in front of the cottage was a great convenience. The place was pristine and had all the amenities you need for a beach stay. The beds were a great size and very comfortable. You can even hear the ocean's waves from the master's bedroom which was lovely. The beach is right outside the cottage and it's in a perfect location between Hythe and Folkestone, both within walking distance. A lot of great sights and restaurants/cafes to stop by while walking.
We had a lovely time and couldn't imagine spending our honeymoon anywhere else. We could not recommend it enough! We will surely come back again.

Driftwood Cottage was wonderful. The owner Louise was very helpful when called with a question. The cottage was furnished very tastefully and so comfortable and contained everything we required. The views from the cottage were amazing and were the icing on the cake.

Two nights at Driftwood
Gorgeous location, breathtaking views! Driftwood is a really lovely cottage, very cute!
The house needed a little maintenance and was expensive for what it was, arrived at 2.30 on Wednesday and had to be out by 10.30 Friday. For what we paid , it felt rushed. I think I expected more as we paid a lot.

A great week
Wonderfully located right on the sea front, beautifully decorated and furnished, equiped with all we could need and easy parking. Aided by marvelous weather we had a great week at Driftwood Cottage.

2 days at Driftwood
We really enjoyed our stay. Having the sea on the doorstep was a real draw for us and it didn't disappoint in terms of morning and evening dips, drinks with the setting sun and walks along the beach.
We also really appreciated the flexibility shown by the owner. Our journey to the property was quicker than anticipated and she was happy for us to check in about an hour before the formal time. Similarly, we were allowed to check out in the early afternoon, because there was no booking following us. This was just great news and really added to the quality of our stay.

Beautiful location
Stunning location and lovely property - didn't want to leave. Would certainly come here again for a summer break.

Stunning on the seashore cottage
We had an amazing time at the Driftwood cottages. Very good communication from the owners. The decor is beautiful and immediately as you walk in you can see the sea from the kitchen and living room windows. In fact, every room has a sea view, even upstairs in the bathroom and master bedroom.
The cottages were immaculate and a welcome goodie bag was left which was a wonderful surprise. We will be back again 100%

A very pleasant stay
We had a very good relaxing stay. The cottage is charming and right on the beach and the neighbourhood is very friendly and welcoming.
The parking can be a bit tricky on nice days when lots of people come to the beach.

Wonderful cottage, perfect location
We had such a wonderful stay at Driftwood. Waking up to sea views did wonders for our family. Very clean and comfortable with plenty of homely touches throughout. The welcome wine and biscuits were such a lovely touch. We can’t wait to come back again next year.

Lovely chilled family weekend
What a gorgeous property - right on the beach. Great for wondering along the beach and up the High Street - popped over to Folkestone to the Harbour Arm - ten mins away. Lovely equipped kitchen, beautiful bedrooms and bathroom - really authentic. All loved lounging in the garden looking at the sea with a cool beer. Great hosts. Perfect!
