Guest Reviews
- Amelia (10/5): - Very clean, tidy, nicely decorated, comfy beds, easy to check in and out, good location Nothing all good
- Gail (9/5): Great stay - Great property over looking the beach
Really nicely decorated
Large flat and well equipped
Great little courtyard garden
Details on how to gain access sent over quickly
Nice clean bedding Beds were a little soft but that’s personal preference
Thought it was ground floor but when we got there it was a basement flat with steps down with a rickety handrail on one side. Struggled with the steps as I am disabled.
Quite a few notices around of dos and don’ts
- Janice (10/5): - Great property, beautifully decorated and well equipped
- Susanne (10/5): We will definitely come back! We loved it. Perfect location for a family of 6 - Cozy and clean
- Bettina (9/5): -
- Alex (9/5): -
- Matthew (10/5): - Great location - within 10-15 minutes walking distance from all the great beachside and creative quarter hotspots.
The place itself is gorgeous and great value for money - much more spacious than the pictures reveal. Wish we made the most of the outside area from the master bedroom. Very clean, comfortable and great interior design, with plenty of utensils, crockery, tea, coffee and basic cooking ingredients available like salt, pepper, vinegar and honey.
Host was very attentive with suggestions and flexibility with check-in and check-out, with very clear instructions on how to use the home including use of central heating.
- warren (10/5): - Fantastic location fantastic tidy flat . Great place to stay
- Jeremy (9/5): - Great location, cool flat, great comms from owner. Mattress on bed in main room meant we kept rolling into the middle of the bed.
- Angie (9/5): We had a great stay and it suited our needs very well. - It was very stylish
The beds were very comfortable
the location meant that we could walk to the places that we wanted to access without a problem It was a little cold in the back double bedroom as it went straight out to the back yard.
- Pir (2/5): I rented the place for my daughter's gender reveal party, but the end of the trip was really bittersweet. I'm co - We liked the house because it had a good location, was clean, and was beautiful. The mattresses were not very comfortable but none of these were as bad as your behavior Steph. He humiliated me in front of my guests, threw us all out of the house with disrespect and shouted at us. I was embarrassed in front of my guests and will definitely complain about this bad behavior. I paid and worked hard for my guests to have a good time. But they were disrespected. I was very stressed and I definitely would not recommend this place to anyone.
- Marceline (10/5): Gorgeous property in a great location -
- Lynda (10/5): Lovely flat, great position, responsive hosts - Quirky & beautifully decorated. Lovely open plan Pre heating would have been good as we only had one night
- Nicola (10/5): Perfect location and comfort for family of 4 - Everything was wonderful! The flat was gorgeous, comfortable and clean, great location. The hosts checked in on us via messages, and gave great recommendations. Great location for the harbour and the old town. We had a wonderful stay. Family of 4. Nothing!
- Kenneth (10/5): -
- Aman (10/5): Perfect in every way possible, will definitely return to make more special memories in the future. Faultless. - I did read reviews before booking this property and they were all so complimentary…I can now understand why.
I cannot compliment our hosts enough as they made our stay so special. Every detail within the property itself has been so well thought of. They even give recommendations which were so helpful. They are prompt to reply if you have questions. The decor, the clever layout, and how it caters for all. It has the feel of home, but is so special, as it ticks all boxes of being a perfect holiday home. It is reasonably priced too, which makes it even more special.
The location itself is absolutely perfect. You can literally walk out of the door and walk to the sea within 2 minutes. It is also perfect as you are literally within a ten minute walk to the harbour and the creative quarter. Being able to watch the sunrise and sunset on your doorstep is special.
Our trip was organised for my mum’s 70th birthday which was in November 2025. We planned to take her away in January, as it’s the time she finds hardest as we lost dad in that month. They both loved going to different coastal area’s around the UK, but had never been to Folkestone. The whole town itself is a hidden gem. The creative quarter and the harbour is brilliant.
I shared all this information with our hosts and they were so accommodating. They allowed us to check in early and even allowed us to check out later too, which allowed us all extra time to enjoy the property. All instructions given by our hosts about the property were clear, which made our stay completely stress free.
I would highly recommend this property as well as the town of Folkestone. It really is a hidden gem. I would again like to thank our hosts who were absolutely awesome. We will definitely book this property again for longer next time and in the summer to fully enjoy fully. We loved everything about this property and our hosts.

Lovely warm jumpers for you to wear in the cooler evenings, toys in the children’s room and even a little nightlight. Our 3 year old was so disappointed to be going home. We would most definitely stay here again.

The heating wasn’t working and it was starting to get cold ( we went in September) and it took till the last day to get this sorted so we were quite cold and had to wrap up even inside and at night! The storage for clothes was not great either as any wardrobes that were there were small and filled with the owners own property.

Would definitely stay again. - Very clean, cosy (but more spacious than expected), well decorated, good layout, very comfy beds and perfect location by sea front in short walking distance from local amenities.

- Robert (9/5): Superb -
- Joao (10/5): Overall, our stay at the sea-front apartment was delightful, despite a few minor inconveniences. - I recently had the pleasure of staying at a stunning sea-front apartment, and it was an unforgettable experience. The apartment itself was immaculate, beautifully decorated, and equipped with all modern amenities, ensuring a comfortable stay. While there was accessible parking available, it was a bit expensive. Additionally, on Saturday morning, we were woken up by scaffolding builders who put on very loud music at 7:30 am, which was quite disruptive. Despite this, the location was ideal, with easy access to local attractions, restaurants, and the beach just steps away, and the hosts were exceptionally welcoming and attentive, making our stay even more enjoyable.
