Description

Think Jane Austen, some antique pieces, a dash of modern art, all the mod cons you need plus a restful courtyard garden. Then add oodles of light, comfort and style. Welcome to your Georgian townhouse.

Deal delight

Period charm comes into its own at this delightful Georgian townhouse with an ideal location in the town of Deal, just steps away from the sea. Built in the mid 18th-century, its graceful elegance takes you right back to a Jane Austen novel. Original features such as double sash windows, shutters and lots of fireplaces sit perfectly in all the natural light under high ceilings.

Antique furniture placed just so next to the occasional splash of colour in the soft furnishings and the quirky modern art on the walls provide the perfect backdrop to your holiday. The sitting room runs the entire length of the house and offers relaxation in several spots. Will yours be an armchair next to a fireplace? Or the chaise longue looking out through the Juliet balcony?

Pop downstairs to your kitchen and dining area. Both again with original fireplaces. Wooden floors make a fine contrast to the black and white kitchen with stainless steel appliances. Yours could be the antique rocking chair by the fire – perfect for supervising the cooking as you sip a little something. Unless of course, you’re outside relaxing in the peaceful courtyard, surrounded by colourful seasonal pots.

The delights of Deal (and there are many) sit literally on your doorstep. Walk just a few steps and you’re on the seafront backing the shingle beach. Don’t miss the fishing boats coming in on the shore just south of the pier. Then explore the lovely shops and cafés before enjoying a meal at one of the excellent restaurants in town. The coastal cycle path takes you to Kingsdown via historic Deal castle while the glorious Kent countryside (think vineyards, orchards and gardens) lies on the horizon.

Bedrooms and bathrooms

Accommodation for 6 in three bedrooms. There’s one super king on the first floor with en suite bathroom, and two bedrooms on the second floor (one king and one double) plus shower room. Cloakroom in the basement.

Reviews

We were a party of 6. Elderly parents were able to manage the stairs and enjoyed their stay in the superking bed with massive en-suite. We walked to Victual restaurant on our first night . Lovely run place with good food. Weather was very good and spent a lot of time strolling up the promenade and sitting on the various benches, watching the world go by. The town house is situated in a perfect location and the roads were very quiet. Wa expecting to be woken by noisy gulls in the morning but this didn`t happen. Laurence had thought of everything to make a stay comfortable. We didn`t think we would use the courtyard but we all used it a lot. Laurence is a very good host and was happy to assist me with something before our arrival which was very kind. We would definitely stay again and also thought what a great winter stay the house would make also. Thanks again Laurence. July 2023

Past Customer,

Gorgeous house in the heart of Deal, 2 mins to beach and 5 mins walk to town. We found parking easily, close to house. We didn`t cook but if you do this is the best stocked kitchen I have stayed in! Furniture delightful, bedding and towels super white. Host very proactive in communications and very clear instructions. Would love a return visit. July 2023

Past Customer,

Laurence was a super host and did everything to make our stay enjoyable. The house is fantastic, one of those places that would be marvellous to own. Great location, clean and homely. And I have to mention - so well equipped. Obviously a well loved and looked after seaside home from home. We loved the kitchen in the basement, and the lounging area was such a cosy space. We had a delightful stay at Laurence`s house. It was perfect to spend Christmas in. Even down to the real Christmas tree beautifully decorated, flowers and other decorations all very tasteful. There was everything we needed and more in the kitchen so cooking a Christmas meal was easy. The beds were really comfortable so we all slept well. It is just a few steps up o the promenade and pier to watch the Boxing Day swim, We didn`t want to leave. Dec 2022

Very good location - beach 2 minutes or less to left or less to right and 7 to 10 minutes from high street, Beds comfortable, beautiful decor and house very well equipped. Parking not an issue- could unload easily in street and park for free nearby (and we were 3 cars). April 2023

Past Customer,

Lovely property. Super location. Wonderful pubs nearby. April 2023

Past Customer,

Big and cosy. Four floors, 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, one small backyard. Seconds from the sea and just minutes from the heart of the town. Well equipped kitchen, modern bathrooms, crisp white sheets and plenty of fresh towels. Strong wi-fi across the house, hi-fi and TV (with Netflix) in the lounge. The place has a classic feel, antique furniture, heritage colour pallets, vintage rugs. If you don`t mind a few stairs, and don`t need lots of private outdoor space, I`d recommend this homely house, perfect for a trio of couples or a family booking for a comfy seaside base. March 2023
