Chambres d'hôtes de rêve à Isle of Thanet

« Birchington-on-Sea is a small seaside town with a pleasant beach at Minnis Bay overlooking the Thames Estuary and the Reculver Towers further up the coast where the bouncing bombs were tested. There are a number of buildings from the interwar period or inspired by them but the jewel in the crown is the Twentieth Century Bed and Breakfast. The owners, Kat and Spencer are true aficionados of the period and is demonstrated by their commitment to the renovation of the property and the interior...

« Très bonne adresse, chambres confortables, maison idéalement située. Jim le propriétaire est super acceuillant, aux petits soins, et très sympathique. Dommage que le nom de la maison ne soit pas écrit car les extérieurs n'indiquent pas qu'on est à la bonne adresse. Il reste que c'est une maison donc on entend le moindre chuchotement de la chambre voisine. Mais ça reste un détail si on sait à quoi s'attendre (pour ma part on ne m'a jamais précisé à la réservation qu'il ne s'agissait pas d'un...

« Hotel propre et confortable. »

« We had a comfortable and friendly stay at St Peter’s B&B. We were given a ground floor converted stable room which was well furnished, comfortable and clean. The ensuite shower was amazing. Both complimentary continental buffet breakfast and hot cooked breakfast of your choice was available. The location was in the centre of Sandwich, less than 5 minutes walk to the shops. The sea is a longer walk but there is no traditional seaside as such. However, Deal which is only 15 minutes drive is...

« Tout était top mais le petit déjeuner à partir de 9h, c’est trop tard…. »

« B&B situé dans un quartier pavillonnaire sans signalement particulier donc peu aisé à trouver. Accès au parking et parking biscornu. Le peu d'entretien des abords fait qu'un véhicule surbaissé accroche ses échappement sur le seuil du portail. L'affluence de la rue ne permet pas, par ailleurs de garer la voiture à l'extérieur. Chambres situées au 1 étage avec un accès par un escalier escarpé et tortueux rendant l'escalade malaisée pour des personnes âgées ou à mobilité réduite. Prix très élevé...

« Margaret was incredibly helpful in providing suggestions on how to navigate the city and provided excellent suggestions for restaurants. The morning breakfast was delicious and plentiful. Our room was very spacious, the couch was very comfortable and the bed was fantastic. After a full day of walking around Dover, this was a very special retreat. The views are just amazing. We will plan a trip to spend more time with Margaret. »

« We had a lovely 3 night stay at The Wincheap. Our host was very friendly and helpful. Breakfasts were delicious and the room was beautiful. »

« The room was cold with a small but capable electric radiator called upon to warm up a room with single-glazed windows. The breakfast was mostly store-bought items warmed up, except the toast and eggs and mushrooms which were nice. The orange juice was lower quality; another thought the coffee was instant. We got charged twice-- once through reserving with Hotels.com and the second time when they said they hadn't received payment. If it weren't for me going back to them with both receipts, we...
