Named after the family’s beloved pet, your four legged friend can join you as well. The cottage is nestled in the pretty village of Kingsdown on the East Kent coast. It has a local store and post office, a butchers, and friendly pub. The beach is a few minutes walk away, where you will find The Zetland Arms, a lovely beach front pub that looks out onto the white cliffs. Poppy Cottage is light and bright and beautifully decorated by the owner. It has an open space ground floor with sitting room and kitchen, with a large dining table and comfortable bench seating, and outside is a lovely long, fully enclosed garden laid to lawn and part decked to form a platform for dining. Upstairs are two bedrooms and a cloakroom. From the cottage you can walk along the coastal path to Deal and Walmer in one direction and St Margaret’s Bay and Dover in the other, so plenty of things to do, places to explore and history in which to immerse yourself. ## Property amenities ### Beach - Beach nearby ### Internet - Available in the cottage: WiFi ### Parking and transportation - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Microwave - Oven - Refrigerator - Stovetop ### Bedrooms - 2 bedrooms ### Bathroom - 1 bathroom - Hair dryer - Shower ### Living spaces - Living room ### Entertainment - Smart TV ### Outdoor areas - Garden ### Work spaces - Desk ### Comfort - Heating ### Pets - Pet friendly ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoking not allowed ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a smoke detector on the property) ### General - Garden ## Similar properties ![Dining](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/83000000/82280000/82270900/82270847/d095296b.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Charming, light, and bright lower ground floor apartment in Walmer Walmer - Kitchen - Washer - Microwave - Living/Dining area 10 Exceptional 5 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-02-09&endDate=2026-02-10&selected=82270847&PinnedHotelID=82270847&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Fridge, microwave, oven, stovetop](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/76000000/75780000/75770100/75770093/3fd5811f.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Beautiful holiday home sleeping 8 with parking and huge garden in Deal, minutes from the beach Deal - Kitchen - Washer - Pet friendly - Outdoor Space 9.8 Exceptional 19 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-02-09&endDate=2026-02-10&selected=75770093&PinnedHotelID=75770093&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Interior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/40000000/39930000/39922100/39922060/c9916b82.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Cosy coastal retreat - 148 Middle Street Deal - Ocean view - Kitchen - Washer - Pet friendly 9.0 Wonderful 11 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-02-09&endDate=2026-02-10&selected=39922060&PinnedHotelID=39922060&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Smart TV](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/83000000/82800000/82798300/82798267/92aca7a5.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Charming coastal cottage, short walk from Deal seafront Deal - Kitchen - Washer - Outdoor Space - Microwave 9.8 Exceptional 7 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-02-09&endDate=2026-02-10&selected=82798267&PinnedHotelID=82798267&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Outdoor dining](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/93000000/92880000/92875300/92875288/4f19d5cb.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Stylish and spacious coastal retreat with sea views Kingsdown - Ocean view - Kitchen - Washer - Pet friendly 9.8 Exceptional 7 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-02-09&endDate=2026-02-10&selected=92875288&PinnedHotelID=92875288&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Interior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/105000000/104960000/104951000/104950995/81f17b3a.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Nelson Cottage.

Jul 1, 2024 #### Idyllic Stay Short walk to beautiful quiet beach. Nice relaxing living space and well kept garden. Would stay again ##### Dominic R. This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 8/10 Good Aug 20, 2023 #### Nice location We enjoyed our stay at Poppy Cottage Nice location although you will need to drive for shops and restaurants, two nice pub's that serve food tho. The Cottage comfortable and well equipped but did lack some items that were listed in the inventory ie washer dryer and barbecue which apparently Keepers Cottages are not responsible for. This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent Aug 29, 2023 #### Lovely cottage We enjoyed our stay here in this cosy cottage; it is conveniently located for dog walks and nice and quiet at night-time. It’s close to some lovely pubs and a great rock-pool beach (although the tide can move fast here). Plenty of castles nearby to visit and a good swimming pool in Deal if you have kids or like to slide. The cottage is well equipped with a nice garden area and allows a dog to stay. Lovely wooden floors throughout and a friendly and relaxed area to stay in. This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 4/10 Poor #### Karen Aram Jan 7, 2024 #### A mixed experience The positives; the staff at Keepers have been helpful and polite at all times. They contacted us as soon the problem came to light. The problem? The website. We selected a cottage on a beech, to find, too late, that, apparently we’d booked a flat in a block in a completely different location. We feel pretty confident we know the difference between a cottage and a flat. Be aware. Unfortunately there’s been no explanation about this, so we’re none the wiser as to how this happened. We either had to go, or pay for a whole new place. At this point we paid again for Poppy Cottage. The owners of Poppy Cottage like to turn the boiler and water mains off; so you’ll be welcomed into a freezing cottage with no water until you turn it all on yourself and wait. Disappointing in the middle of winter. There’s no milk or anything extra just so you’re aware. Nice company, frustrating issues for us. ##### Karen Aram ### 10/10 Excellent #### Theresa B. Aug 26, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy We had the greatest time and enjoyed every minute there! ##### Theresa B. Stayed 4 nights in Aug 2025 This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 8/10 Good Sep 4, 2023 #### Disappointed We were disappointed with this property. A very late and as it turned out useless attempt to sort out a washer dryer as listed really upset our enjoyment - with two very young children it was a nightmare. We would NOT have booked it if no washer dryer - we would have gone elsewhere. It was also not that clean. ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Saffron House Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Ilfracombe-Hotels-Saffron-House-Hotel.h4252372.Hotel-Information) > > [The Evenlode Rooms at Firehouse Oxford](https://www.expedia.ca/Witney-Hotels-The-Evenlode.h41258809.Hotel-Information) > > [Forest Pines Spa & Golf Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Brigg-Hotels-Forest-Pines-Spa-Golf-Resort.h461512.Hotel-Information) > > [Devon Holiday Home with large garden, hot tub, Sleeps 9\.
