Nestled in a quiet street in Walmer’s conservation area, it’s a stone’s throw from the beach and a short walk along the front to Deal’s town centre, with its quirky independent shops, markets and cafés. Even closer is the Strand, with an attractive green and bandstand, traditional bakery, pubs, convenience stores and a café where you can enjoy a superb full English with a view all the way to France. You can even buy freshly caught fish direct from the boatmen on the beach. Deal itself is a charming, unspoilt Georgian seaside town with two Tudor castles, local museums and a striking modernist pier all worth a visit. Within a thirty minute drive are the cathedral city of Canterbury, Dover Castle, and the major shopping outlet at Ashford. For two legs or two wheels, there are plenty of country and coastal paths and trails to explore. Golfers, too, are spoilt for choice, with three superb British Open courses nearby – Royal St. Georges, Royal Cinque Ports and Princes. This particular stretch of Kentish coast offers you the Turner Contemporary, Dreamland and the extraordinary shell grotto in Margate, Dickensian Broadstairs, Ramsgate’s Royal Harbour, Whitstable and the picturesque Medieval streets of Sandwich. Enough for plenty of days out. And of course, France is just 20 miles away by sea. Wherever you get to, Lifeboat Cottage is the perfect spot to return to. Downstairs is a light and airy lounge complete with working fireplace, a spacious kitchen diner and bathroom. Upstairs are two double bedrooms, one with views and a wall-mounted TV. Outside, the delightful courtyard garden is the ideal spot to catch the last rays of sunshine, and there is handy side access for bikes and pushchairs. Sky TV (including Sky Sports) and Wi-fi are both included so you’ll never miss a match or a message. No smoking, please, for the comfort and enjoyment of our non-smoking guests. ## Property amenities ### Beach - Beach nearby ### Internet - Available in the cottage: WiFi ### Parking and transportation - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Electric kettle - Microwave - Oven - Refrigerator - Stovetop - Toaster ### Bedrooms - 2 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 1 bathroom - Hair dryer - Shower - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Fireplace - Living room ### Entertainment - Books - DVD player - TV with cable/satellite channels ### Outdoor areas - Garden ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Comfort - Heating ### Pets - Pet friendly - Welcoming dogs only - One pet total (up to 55 lbs per pet) ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoking not allowed ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board ### Location highlights - Near the sea ### Things to do - Golf ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property; consider bringing a portable detector) - Smoke detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a smoke detector on the property) ### General - Garden ## Similar properties ![Property grounds](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/74000000/73680000/73679800/73679701/146f428e.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Just a stone’s throw from the beach Walmer - Kitchen - Washer - Pet-friendly - Free WiFi 10 Exceptional 2 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-30&endDate=2025-10-31&selected=73679701&PinnedHotelID=73679701&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Beach nearby](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/19000000/18770000/18768400/18768313/14679c0e.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Just 50 meters from the pebble beach Deal - Kitchen - Pet-friendly - Free WiFi - Outdoor space 9.8 Exceptional 52 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-30&endDate=2025-10-31&selected=18768313&PinnedHotelID=18768313&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Beach nearby](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/19000000/18790000/18782200/18782136/3dc144b4.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Seashell Cottage - 50 meters from the beach Walmer - Kitchen - Pet-friendly - Free WiFi - Outdoor space 10 Exceptional 48 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-30&endDate=2025-10-31&selected=18782136&PinnedHotelID=18782136&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Smart TV, DVD player, books, video library](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/40000000/39970000/39963000/39962989/ba891b9c.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Delightful seaside cottage, central, quiet with free parking.

Cosy beds with good quality linen and comfortable lounge. A lovely touch was dog treats,bowls and balls for throwing supplied. Easy walking distance to shops and restaurants and pubs. We loved our stay and would recommend Lifeboat Cottage. Excellent fireworks by pier made our New Year. If we are in area again would definitely rebook here. Thankyou Mark and your wife for the lovely cake to welcome us. Just a note to people less able than us that stairs are very steep, no problem for us but maybe not so good for the elderly or people with mobility problems. ##### Jayne H.

Oct 29, 2022 Liked: Check-in, communication, location #### Hit and Miss Was a great location and the check-in was easy with the supplied lock box, although the front door lock was a bit fiddly. The beach was a literal stones throw away and there was a great view of the RNLI station from the bedroom window. As a location, it was great and was fairly easy to park outside or close by without having to pay. There were a few small issues that spoilt the stay. There was no soap in the downstairs bathroom and no replacement available. There were only 4 teabags, the sugar and coffee were rock hard and contaminated and mixed up. There was a bag for a hairdryer in one of the bedroom drawers but no actual hairdryer. The pullout we used in the 2nd bedroom in case our little one fell out of the main bed was not very clean and was covered in hair and some of the mugs and plates were dirty. There was no way of locking the bathroom or toilet doors for privacy as the locks did not line up. A great location but rough around the edges. ##### Rik P.

Usually a slot can be found when the renovation teams have gone home!. Seem buyers are being attracted to the houses as a good investment. The sea front is close by, with wide macadam paths (no bumps and lumps) stretching for miles. Ideal for walking, walking the dog, cyclists and ideal for mobility scooters users. I would go back again to this area again for a holiday. ##### Alan Y. Stayed 4 nights in Jun 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Andrew H.

Als wir ankamen, waren wir schon ganz hin und weg von der liebevollen Dekoration und der geschmackvollen Einrichtung. Den Schlüssel bekamen wir persönlich überreicht und uns wurde in einem kleinen Rundgang alles gezeigt und erklärt. Im Kühlschrank wurden wir mit einem Sahnekuchen und frischer Milch willkommen geheißen und auch für die Kinder gab es eine schokoladige Überraschung. Das Haus war sehr sauber und wir hatten hier alles, was wir für unseren Aufenthalt benötigten. Auch unsere Hunde fühlten sich wohl. Die Nähe zum Meer ist perfekt und morgens mit einem Blick aufs Wasser wach zu werden, lässt den Tag doch noch gleich viel besser beginnen.

Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Julia M., Arnprior, Ontario, Canada Sep 17, 2018 #### Home Away From Home We came here for 2 weeks from Ontario, Canada, for an extended family reunion with family in the UK and from Australia. The cottage is immaculately clean, well designed and has everything you could possibly need to make it an enjoyable stay, and there are so many thoughtful touches. Upon arrival, there was tea, coffee, milk and sugar and a fresh cream cake in the fridge! The beds are very comfortable, and there is lots of wardrobe and drawer space. We were able to make supper for family (5 at a time!) and the kitchen has everything you would need. The location is great - you can see the Lifeboat building from the front bedroom window, and it is within walking distance of shops, seafront and restaurants. The Stag pub is literally almost opposite, and it has a courtyard type garden at the back that the family made use of. Buses run to Canterbury and Dover, and the bus stop is very close to the cottage. It is a ten/fifteen minute walk to the town centre (depending on how fast you walk and whether you go direct, or meander along the seafront). The Zetland pub is a long walk or short drive away, and the food is great. Best fish and chips was Mario's along the Strand. Great Indian food at Namaste, which is on the Dover Road. We loved every minute of our stay and would certainly come back if we ever needed a place to stay in Walmer. ##### Julia M. Stayed 14 nights in Sep 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Amanda F.
