Description from owner

Description

The small seaside town of Deal is a unique and undiscovered gem on the Kentish coast, located between the historic Cinque Ports of Dover and Sandwich, opposite the famous Goodwin Sands. Ideal for both couples and families, wanting a quiet, relaxing holiday, Deal offers plenty to do and see for visitors all year round – from walks along the coastline, cycling or golf, to visiting Deal’s picturesque town centre with its charming specialist shops and the many nearby historic sites, museums and galleries.Blue Skies makes an excellent and comfortable base for your holiday, where everything is literally on your doorstep, that you don’t even need a car. The seafront and beach are a minute away and the shops, museums, pubs, cafés and restaurants are all close by. But if you wish to travel a little further afield, then the medieval Cathedral town of Canterbury, the sandy beaches of Dicken’s Broadstairs and Northern France, are just a short drive away!
