  A clean and well equipped house but as this property is over 4 floors there are a lot of stairs to climb and holiday-makers need to bear this in mind when booking the house.

  The house was clean and well appointed with a large kitchen area, The property caters for 6no people but there are only two sofas and 6 people on these would be a tight squeeze there were no other comfy chairs to sit on the house needs either larger sofas or two airchairs .The kitchen had all the cooking utensils required and more than enough glasses & plates, The Neff dishwasher had no salt or rinse aid and was completely empty of both and when we filled up the machine at our expense with salt & rinse aid it was obvious that the machine had not been filled in months, The garden at the back was small and overlooked by all the other house at the rear of the property so there was no privacy, This area was more a "yard" than a garden, ok if you wanted to barbecue but not much else .The undercroft car parking space was not very wide and a large 4x4 would struggle to park, The property was ideally situated for the pebble beach (no sand for young children ) Hythe as a town was well served by a Waitrose & Sainsburys supermarket and a delightful old fashioned High Street with plenty of pubs and restaurants also plenty of parking at £1.20 per hour The "jewel in the crown" is the Royal Military Canal with lovely walks and boats for hire,

  Overall we had a lovely stay at Castle Cottage.

  The place was tidy and clean, and the owner very helpful. There has obviously been a lot of thought gone into the design of the cottage as a holiday home, and our dog was also made to feel very welcome with all the little extras. On a personal note, I found the property quite cold and the bathroom very cold at night. The heating was managed by the owner and was restricted in both time and temperature. Again, personally I didn’t find the beds comfortable and slept on top of the duvet to help with comfort. Also, the sofas look lovely, but are quite hard after a while. The kitchen was missing a few things, like measuring jug, casserole type dish for the oven, microwavable plates. The knives were very cheap and quite dangerous to use so didn’t bother with much cooking. Even with these small personal points, we had a lovely stay and enjoyed the quiet location and quaint village of Saltwood. The font and back gardens were enclosed and great for the dog. Parking was never an issue even though you couldn’t park outside, there was always space in the car park. Hilary was attentive and quick to communicate throughout, and I have no doubt would have resolved any issues we may have had.

  The property is very modern and clean.

  The kitchen was fitted out very well and equipped with plenty of utensils, dishes, cutlery and pans etc. There is a microwave oven despite previous feedback stating otherwise and is very simple to use. There was also washing up liquid & dishwasher tablets provided including tea towels, sponges, hand-wash, bin liners and cleaning products. There were plenty of clean towels and the beds & pillows were very comfortable. The Sky + TV is a great touch especially when the weather isnt great for a lazy day in. The instructions are very clear and useful including instruction manuals, local attraction and eatery leaflets.The Lazy Shack cafe and shop which is a stone throw away(1 min walk) is excellent and the property generally is located very well near the high street with plenty of nearby places to eat and shop. The parking was very good with the use of the under croft car port and an additional space in front of the property. Overall one of the best places we have stayed in as a young family. We would highly recommend this property.

  Great location, lovely to have the sea view & Griggs for Breakfast or Brunch only a 2 minute walk.

  The accommodation was spotlessly clean on our arrival, the communal areas were comfortable & sociable for 6 of us (all adults) Each bedroom was super comfortable & 3 bathrooms meant there were never any queues. If you’re a light sleeper on light mornings then eye masks will be useful if you want a lie in. Aldi & Waitrose are both walkable (but for a big shop take a car or several people to carry shopping bags!) There are also a great selection of restaurants & pubs serving food, if you don’t wish to use the very good cooking facilities in number 7(add a large casserole pot/saucepan along with sharp knives & it’d be excellent!) Hythe has a wealth of British history to discover, and with the train to Dungeness coupled with walks along the coast & inland we’d definitely like to return to see more of it & no 7 Ocean Gateway is ideally positioned to make the most of this area.

  An absolutely amazing luxury property in a wonderful location right by the beach.

  The property was well maintained and had everything we needed to make our stay very comfortable. The kitchen was very well equipped and had a lovely view of the sea. There were three bathrooms so no rush in the mornings. The living space was nicely laid out with comfortable sofas and a huge TV with plenty to watch. The games in the cabinet were a real hit with our six year old. In fact there was nothing you hadn’t thought about when putting this space together. There were even buckets and spades for the beach and binoculars. There was a desk space on the fourth floor which was perfect for evening working when the children and had gone to bed My only tiny complaint was the Wi-Fi was a bit hit and miss but this meant we did not work as much as we should have or stay on our devices forever. Not a bad thing I would say. We will definitely be back !
