About this property
Annie's Cottage. A pretty chocolate box style cottage with lots of character.
Annie’s Cottage is charming and characterful with one bedroom, exposed flint walls, beams and an inglenook fireplace. The cottage can accommodate up to 3 guests in the bedroom with an additional portable bed which is perfect for small families. There is also a bed settee in the sitting room which can sleep additional guests.
Annie's Cottage is situated on a country road, at the edge of a village, within 4 miles of the coast. The kitchen in this lovely cottage is fully equipped with granite style work surfaces, a sink, electric hob, fan oven and grill, microwave, toaster, fridge with icebox, and a washing machine/tumble dryer, so you can stay as long as you like! And, it also has lots of character with an exposed flint and stone wall.
The sitting room has 3-foot-thick walls and deep set windows, a large inglenook fireplace incorporating an original baker's oven and beams. And because of the thickness of the walls, this room stays lovely and cool on hot summer days, but keeps the heat in on cold winter ones.
The lovingly refurbished ground floor bathroom has a shower over the top which is remotely controlled, so you can select the temperature and pressure even before you get in. The mirror above the sink is rather large with lights all the way around, and additional mood lighting underneath. The bathroom is usefully situated between the upstairs bedroom and the downstairs sitting room, which is great if you have additional guests sleeping on the bed settee.
The upstairs bedroom has a romantic feel with sloping ceilings and bay windows. The king size bed with a super king size duvet and generous walk in wardrobe, gives this surprisingly large and characterful bedroom a feel of luxury. There is also a double socket with a usb port for guests to be able to re-charge their phones easily.
The cottage has a lovely seating area to the front, which catches the sun from late morning till late afternoon. It's perfect for alfresco dining or relaxing whilst watching the wildlife. However sometimes this seating area has to be moved in early spring, due to a lovely little robin who occasionally makes her nest in the letterbox next to the front door. She seems quite happy for guests to use the front door, but doesn't like sharing the letter box with postman, so he has to find somewhere else to put the letters!
And finally, being able to park outside the cottage or in the spacious private courtyard, and in the summer under the lovely cool shade of the tall trees, adds to the pleasure and ease of staying in this chocolate box style cottage.
And finally, the price of the cottage varies depending on the time of year. The price is currently set for the summer, so please enquire for an exact price for spring, autumn and winter.

A well appointed pretty cottage in a great central location for exploring Thanet and the East of Kent. Very comfortable and peaceful. We had a great week with lots of places to visit without having to travel too far. The owners were very helpful and the booking and arrangements all went smoothly.
What a beautiful cottage in a fantastic location. Right next to Manston airport with all the RAF & Spitfire history to enjoy. A short drive from so many amenities and ever such easy access to the coast of Kent.The cottage has so much history and the pictures do not do it justice. The living room is much bigger than we expected! The cottage is in a beautiful little quiet courtyard with an easy drive round circle to get through the access archway. The turn in from the road is a little hidden but the host has installed multicoloured lights to help late arrivals find the opening easily. She also called us with very detailed directions and descriptions so we could find the cottage easily, which was really helpful.We were staying in the depth of winter and the cottage heating system did the job of keeping us warm very nicely. The bathroom is modern with plenty of hot water at all times. The kitchen was perfectly adequate for 2 people's needs and the oven cooked evenly and at the temperature we expected (sometimes it's hit and miss in cottages!) but it would be good if an additional oven shelf could be put in I think. One shelf was a bit of a juggle.We loved our stay at this cottage with the ever so warm welcome, wonderful information about the local area and the absolute peace and quiet of the location.I had to work from the cottage for half a day and the WiFi did not let me down, which was great.Highly recommend this accommodation. Simply lovely.
Really lovely property. Suzanne was very welcoming with some great knowledge to help us with our stay. Particularly enjoyed the local pub, on Suzanne's recommendation .Sofa bed in the living room was very comfortable! Spacious and homely. Would defo go back.Thanks again x
Cottage was very charming with a lot of history to it. Comfortable and cosy, close to all amenities plus the beautiful Kent coast.

Cosy and peaceful.
A lovely cottage set in the open country, but yet very convenient to take advantage of all that the Thanet area has to offer. Comfortable and cosy, great for a break away. Owner very helpful and friendly.
Beautiful. Clean warm. Home from home diffently will be going back x
Excellent. Had everything you needed. Property owner so welcoming. Really enjoy. Diffently will be going back with more family members. Lots to do and see x
Annie's Cottage was a delightful property to stay in as we toured the Thanet area. Extremely comfortable, clean, well equipped and very quiet. Suzanne and George, the owners, made us feel very welcome and it proved an ideal base to visit the resorts of Margate, Ramsgate, Deal, Broadstairs, Whitstable and Birchington and also delightful and historic towns and cities such as Rochester and Sandwich - all of these an easy drive from the cottage. We'd certainly stay there again.

Great
Left alone lovely.
Knew where to get help if needed
I rented Annie’s Cottage as I needed a peaceful place to work. Not only did it exceed my expectations, it was fabulous! The hosts Suzanne and George were so incredibly welcoming and friendly. Never intrusive, but there should you have any problems ( I didn’t. Everything was great.) I was sorry to leave. The house, and nearby surroundings, have such a lovely vibe. I will DEFINITELY be returning. In fact, I can’t wait to! So, thank - you Suzanne and George for making my stay so productive. I couldn’t have picked a better place to stay. A perfect place, for sure.
We loved the location for both the coast and Canterbury. We are keen cooks and brought all our ingredients with us so can’t comment on local restaurants but the well-equipped kitchen is tiny, which made prepping food and elaborate cooking challenging. The cottage is sweet and perfect for a couple.
A good rest in secluded property not far from the sea front.
I had the good rest that I wanted. The bed is ultra comfortable and the property is secluded and quiet. Gorgeous house with heritage and character but with all
the modern comfort . Amazing coast lines nearby and great walks to be done by the sea. Plenty of fresh food, very kind locals and friendly hosts. It was hard to leave! ❤️
The property was in a first class condition and location. The owner gave us s warm and friendly welcome. We cannot recommend it highly enough and would certainly revisit
Le logement est tel que nous nous y attendions. L'accueil chaleureux et la facilité à correspondre avec le propriétaire mettent immédiatement à l'aise.
Séjour calme et environnement parfait avec la proximité des commerces et des plages du Kent.
A découvrir absolument.
Goede plek om kustplaatsjes en Canterbury te verkennen, dicht bij RAF-museum. Ook Sandwich is een charmant plaatsje. Prettig contact met eigenaar.

Lovely hostess. Warm welcome. Comfortable cottage with everything I needed. For most people it would probably be quiet enough. The bedroom windows lacked double-glazing and with driveway and cars in front, a light sleeper may not find it quiet enough.
