The Cook's Cottage

Thanks to Selina and the lovely Cooks Cottage. We all felt really comfortable and at home as soon as we arrived. Great for the dog and a special mention for the lovely bath.

Wow what can I say. The most amazing place to stay in Whitstable. A hidden gem. Everything perfect. We had the most incredible weekend. Thank you for letting us rent your beautiful home x

The Cook’s Cottage is a very thoughtfully put together home, with everything that visitors could possibly need for their stay, from dog treats to an old record player and a fantastic collection of vinyl! Selina was an excellent host, and we thoroughly appreciated the little touches, like the bottle of Prosecco and candle that she leaves for her guests.

Our week at Cooks Cottage in Whitstable was an absolute delight! The cottage's charming decor & thoughtful amenities made our stay truly special. The location is fantastic, just a short hop to the beach, shops & restaurants + it’s dog-friendly, which made it perfect for our furry friend. We loved evenings by the fire, the nostalgic antique record player, the beautifully equipped kitchen that made cooking a joy. Every detail was carefully considered, ensuring we had everything we needed. The only downside was having to leave! We highly recommend Cooks Cottage. Five ⭐️ without hesitation

We had a lovely stay at Cook's Cottage. Selina our host was lovely. Very good communication and nothing was too much trouble. The Cottage itself is beautiful. Charming with shabby chic furniture throughout. It's a home away from home. The location is great, walkable distance to everything. Local eateries such as Birdies, The Neptune were our favourites. The retro old style vinyl record player in the dining room is beautiful. Thanks for a lovely stay!

We had a lovely break, the cottage was so unique looks just like the photos, so cosy and the weather was amazing. The Oyster festival was so enjoyable. Whitstable is officially my favourite coastal town. We had another fabulous break , see you next year .

This is a lovely cottage! Spacious, clean and with Nice beds. It is very well decorated and has a nice outdoor cinema. The host is very Nice and responds very quick.

Had a fab weekend at The Cook's Cottage. Wonderful French farmhouse vibe - beautiful furniture - that made it very easy to relax inside and out. The garden provided entertainment (cinema in summer house) and dappled sunshine for the afternoons. The dog was well catered for with treats galore, big dog bed and an enclosed garden. The welcome hamper and sunflowers were a lovely touch. We loved it instantly. Of course the sunny weather helped too. Stairs might be a challenge for some but they added to the atmosphere of living in a cottage.

We had a delightful five days at Cooks Cottage, with our two Labradors. It is comfortable, quirky and ideally situated in a cul de sac less than five minutes walk from the beach and very close to shops and restaurants. Great fish restaurants, laid back beach-side bar and an amazing artisan cheese shop less than a minute away. My wife particularly liked the variety of clothes shops with different styles! Also several excellent countryside dog walks only 15 minutes drive away. Thoroughly recommended!

A very lovely home with super comfortable beds and all the amenities we could possibly need, sown to bathrobes

Such a delightful cottage full of character, each room individually furnished. Warm and cosy for the wet and chilly weather of February, super comfortable beds and generous supplies of fabulous soaps etc. Enclosed garden and everything needed for dogs, with great beach walks, shops, eateries and coffee are minutes away. Hope to be back soon!

The Cook's Cottage is charming and was perfect for our short break by the sea. The overall look is shabby chic, with some interesting French pieces. The kitchen is well equipped with everything you could want with which to make a meal - you just need to go to the excellent local shops to buy your meat, fish and vegetables, as well as excellent sourdough and other breads from the baker. The weather was a bit cloudy when we were there, but we enjoyed having lunch in the lovely dog-escape proof garden. The beds were comfortable and there was enough hanging space and drawers to store our clothes.

We had such an amazing time at the cottage! We were 3 families with 3 children under 6 and a toddler, the stairs gate really helped and there was a cot. Loads of spices and cooking equipment which is appropriated as we love cooking! The cottage is near all the shops and the beach. It’s pets friendly and has loads of dog snacks. The host was communicative and responsive and gave us recommendation and tips. Amazing garden. A great record collection. Will definitely come back with family and friends.

A perfect location to explore Whitstable and Kent. Literally seconds from the main shops and the seafront is barely a minute from the front door yet it was quiet and felt secluded. Parking was easy but we were there off-season and midweek. The owners have packed the cottage with plenty of delightful surprises and the beds really are as comfortable as other reviews suggest. One word of caution - the stairs are very steep and may not suit older or very young holidaymakers

We stayed at the Cook’s Cottage in Whitstable, while we were filming and it was the perfect refuge during our long shoot days. The attention to detail, was second to none. The kitchen was filled with every utensil. The beds were the most comfortable beds I’ve ever stayed in, in a rental property. It was filled with gorgeous furniture in the most perfect location. The hosts were absolutely heavenly, and the most hospitable of them all. I find when I stay in a rental you can feel unsettled for a bit, but the Cook’s Cottage really felt like a home away from home. Thank you X

We really enjoyed our stay at Cook's Cottage. A walk on the beach is literally two minutes away so was perfect for the dog and children. The area is wonderful and we supported the local shops which are amazing. The cottage was perfect for us - 2 adults, 2 children and a dog. So comfortable, fully stocked with everything we needed, and the decor is inspiring. We particularly loved being out in the garden and enjoying meals outside. The children really liked the converted summer house and they loved watching films in there on a night on the projector. Selina was great - would recommend highly

My husband, myself, and our little dog stayed for a few days mid-week in June to celebrate our Anniversary. On our day of arrival we were not able to park on the street, but we managed to get a space just one street over, which was not too far at all. It is a gorgeous house! The interior is designed so beautifully and sympathetically with the period and style of the property. The back garden gets bright sunlight for the vast majority of the day so makes it a beautiful place to spend the day if you want to relax away from the bustle of the high street or beach. We would highly recommend a stay.

Enjoy this unique, slightly quirky, and characterful cottage before heading out to explore the local independent high street and scenic coastline. The Cook's Cottage would be perfect for any foodie with cafés, bars, and restaurants on your doorstep as well as a well-equipped bespoke kitchen and fresh herb garden.
