Claire’s Cottage is an adorable, cosy cottage tucked away from the road in a small terrace of former workmen’s cottages built in the Victorian era. Now fully renovated but keeping its character and charm, the cottage is the perfect romantic break for couples, or the ideal quiet retreat for guests wanting to slow down and explore this lovely part of the Kent coastline. The ground floor has a compact and fully equipped kitchen and a cosy sitting room with a traditional fireplace and wood burner. Upstairs is the comfortable bedroom and shower room. The south facing garden is a real suntrap, to enjoy sunny summer days and warm evenings, and has a patio area to catch the early morning sun, and a bench under a wooden pergola at the end of the garden. Hythe is a great place for a holiday or short break. Full of history, the Royal Military Canal, built during Napoleon times, passes through the town and offers stunning canal walks and wildlife. Foodies will be spoilt for choice with the many seafood restaurants, and the popular Michelin star Hide and Fox restaurant is within walking distance (make sure to book in advance). Not to be missed is a trip on the Romney Hythe & Dymchurch miniature railway, great fun for all ages, which terminates at the Dungeness Nature Reserve and lighthouses. Further afield are the coastal towns of Sandgate and Folkestone, and the historic City of Canterbury.
