Description from owner

Description

Situated just 5-10 minutes walk from the beach, this charming period detached bungalow with large garden is the perfect location for a traditional British seaside holiday. Score cottage has a unique "retro-chic" style - the sink unit was once a sewing machine stand, the cabinets were wine boxes, the mantle piece was a bit of boat jetty. Watch Punch and Judy while enjoying an ice cream from the word famous Morellis ice cream parlour then enjoy the quirky shops cafes and restaurants dotted through the beautiful small streets which are almost unchanged since the reign of Queen Victoria.

Lonely Planet says: “quaint little Broadstairs just quietly gets on with what it's done best for the last 150 years – wowing visitors with its tight sickle of reddish sand and sun-warmed lapping sea. Dickens certainly though Viking Bay a pretty spot, making several visits between 1837 and 1859”

Decreased Mobility: Score Cottage is all on one level with just two small steps to get in the front door if you have problems with mobility this is a great property, but, please contact me so I can describe it in more detail to ensure it is right for you.

The street has plenty of free on-street parking.
The train station is 2 mins walk from Score Cottage are fast direct train. The fast service to St. Pancras takes just 1 hour and 20 minutes. Whitstable, Sandwich, Canterbury and Dover are close by. Ramsgate and Margate are just a seaside walk along the coast

“Quirky little bungalow”

Reviewed 10 Jun 2022

We loved our stay in this sweet little place. The outside could do with a lick of paint but it sort 9f adds to the charm. The inside is a lovely homely feel and furnished very quirky. The main bedroom is very comfy has a memory foam mattress that you won't want to leave. The front room is cosy and the kitchen has everything you need for a stay. The beach is a 10 minute walk away and the walk back is slightly uphill so may be a problem for anyone with mobility issues (local taxi is £4). The garden is wild but beautiful and we enjoyed sitting out here in the sunshine. The only downside is that the cleaning was a bit lacklustre but that could be because we arrived earlier than the scheduled arrival time. We loved staying here and would definitely stay again in a heartbeat.

“Score Cottage Broadstairs”

Reviewed 4 May 2022

Thank you for the chance to give a review, as my visit to this cottage I was ABSOLUTELY discussed with the state of it photos were 8 years old fake information of the cottage broke all health and safety rule broken glass in garden leak in the toilet, shower no head on it stunk of damp musk, cold quilt cover old and used. No earthing to sockets and cobwebs everywhere, very drafts, garden overgrown and unkempt, old rusty air raid shelter it was a discussing time warp cottage should have been condemned. I complained to Trust apilot and the owner Dianne and she arranged through truster pilot for a refund. My whole holiday was completely ruined and would like to be compensated for all the stress and unhappiness this cottage caused. This cottage should be removed from your Lettings list to save you any further embarrassment and cost to you. I would loved to hear about the outcome of your actions. Regards Sylvia Heritage If you require photos of this Score Cottage please let me know as there on my husbands phone.
