Self catering accommodation in North Foreland Lighthouse sleeps 4.
Features include: • Internet Access • Romantic Breaks • Close to the Beach • Close to the Sea • Pub near by • Cottage Sleeps 4
Accommodation overview: Lodesman Cottage details
In association with Trinity House, Rural Retreats is pleased to present Lodesman Cottage at North Foreland Lighthouse.
Lodesman Cottage (with accommodation for four guests) is one of two holiday cottages available at the lighthouse, which lies on the chalk headland above the charming and unspoilt seaside town of Broadstairs at the far eastern tip of Kent. The holiday cottages have shared use of a very large one-acre lawned garden and patio with ample space to sit out.
Places to visit in this area of Kent include Joss Bay which has an excellent sandy beach, only three minute's walk away. The nearest pub, the Digby Inn, is a 10-minute stroll and serves good food. For golfing enthusiasts, the North Foreland Golf Club is very close by.
Broadstairs in Kent has good sandy beaches and an attractive old town which has literary associations with Charles Dickens. Bleak House in the town is where Dickens lived while he was writing David Copperfield. The town holds a Dickens Festival in June each year and a popular Folk Music Week in August.
The earliest reference to a light on North Foreland was given in a deed dated 1499 and, at that time, it was almost certain that the beacon was used to warn of attack or piracy rather than as an aid to navigation. Both cottages are very child friendly, surrounded by spacious lawned grounds and set well away from cliffs. The lighthouse does not have a fog signal.
Access roads to some of the lighthouse sites are narrow with limited passing places and, dependent on the season and site, there is the possibility of overhanging vegetation due to cutting restrictions during bird breeding seasons or other environmental reasons.
Guests should be aware that the lighthouses and equipment need regular and sometimes emergency maintenance. Therefore visits by maintenance staff may occur at any time during the year. However, staff will do their best to ensure guest privacy at all times.

Self catering accommodation in Hythe sleeps 4.
Features include: • Romantic Breaks • Close to the Beach • Pub near by • Cottage Sleeps 4
Accommodation overview: Hillside details
Hillside is a Victorian holiday cottage set on a quiet lane within the conservation area, overlooking Hythe to the English Channel and on a clear day, the French coast. The Cinque Port of Hythe has changed little over the years, with its narrow streets and passageways complemented by historic buildings and public gardens.
The luxury self-catering cottage is within a short stroll of Hythe's attractions: the local shops which provide a pleasant mix of traditional green grocers, bakery and butchers, intermingled with restaurants, wine bars and antique shops; the Royal Military Canal which offers holiday guests the chance to hire a rowing boat or try your hand at fishing; the Romney Hythe and Dymchurch Railway, where one can take a trip on the world's smallest public steam railway across Kent's famous Romney Marsh to Dungeness.
Hythe's beach, where fishing boats are pulled up between trips, is a pleasant 12-minute walk from the holiday property via the Royal Military Canal and "Ladies Walk" gardens. One can walk and cycle along the promenade or simply sit on the beach and watch the more energetic windsurfing and sailing.
Other nearby Kent attractions are Brockhill Country Park with 54 acres of lakes and woodland walks (10 minutes), Port Lympne Animal Park (20 minutes), Dover Castle, the Cinque Port of Rye and the historic city of Canterbury.
For the more adventurous the Channel Tunnel allows easy access to the French coast, and day trips by car to the attractive towns of Boulogne, Montreuil and Le Touquet. Sandling mainline railway station (five minutes' drive from the property) provides access to London (journey time one hour 26 minutes).

There is a large stone terrace to the rear of the property overlooking the garden and sea beyond, with gas barbecue and two wooden dining tables seating 16.

The garden drops to an unfenced, uncultivated, wild flowered steep slope down to the sea, so caution is needed with young children.
Inside, six of the eight bedrooms have full sea views. The large kitchen/dining room opens through French doors to the terrace for easy outside dining and fabulous sea views and the games room provides a pool table and TV for indoor entertainment. There is an additional TV snug with a 42" wall mounted flat screen TV.

Five to ten minutes' drive further on is Briddlesford Lodge, Wootton, with its farm shop and Bluebell Caf, open daily for a large selection of local and organic produce including hand- made sausages and other meat from the on-site butcher.
There are miles of beautiful sandy beaches at Ryde, a picturesque Victorian seaside town 4.5 miles away, and at Sandown beach, 11 miles from the property.
