About this cottage rental
Lovely 3 bedroom cottage which dates back to the 18th Century, offering a feel of the period with exposed brickwork, beams and an inglenook fireplace with working wood burning stove, yet providing the comforts of today with oil fired central heating and a modern kitchen with all mod cons! Previously owned by Lady Russell, luxuries imagined during this time are found, including high quality bedding in all of the 3 bedrooms. The well established walled garden is a lovely place to relax after a hard day touring or by the beach! Beautiful feature lounge with beams and inglenook fireplace, LCD TV with DVD and Freeview. Separate dining room with country style furnishings including a Welsh Dresser. Modern well equipped kitchen with adjacent utility/shower room. Upstairs offers 2 double bedrooms and a twin bedroom, all with good storage. There is a family bathroom with full size bath, hand held shower, w/c and basin.

We stayed nine days in Northbourne and we had a wonderful time. The house is cosy, the garden amazing and the vincinty very beautiful. The beds were comfortable, the kitchen is well equipped and most of the time we just enjoyed the lovely garden. It was a bit surprising that there is no shower. Deal can be reached in 10 minutes by car. The sandy beaches in Margate or Broadstairs are good for swimming with children. We are looking forward to coming again next year. Thanks for everything.

This was a break to end the horrible lock down that we have all experienced in these last few months.. Townsend Cottage is idyllic, every thing that a family needs.. We could not have asked for more..Thank you Tim and Julie...
