Everything you need for a comfortable stay was provided. Great location. This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Robert P. Mar 1, 2025 #### Simply The Best. Will definitely rebook when returning to Deal I think we picked the coldest weekend of this winter but The Drift cottage was warm and cosy. Spotlessly clean with lots of added extras, plus the added bonus of a parking space which I was able to get my Mini Countryman on. There’s a nice decking area which unfortunately was much to cold to sit on, a nice touch for the summer though. Just a short walk from shops, restaurants and pubs, perfect all round. ##### Robert P. This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent Sep 29, 2024 #### Wonderful holiday We stayed at The Drift for a week and loved it. The property is situated in a conservation area amongst lots of other beautiful properties a short walk from the centre of Deal. The cottage was beautifully decorated, very clean and well equipped. The bed was exceptionally comfortable. Even though the stairs were steep the rope handles supplied made it relatively easy for old knees to cope with the climb!! The beach was virtually on our doorstep and the walk along the prom to the town centre was a delight. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ellen C. Jul 19, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy A wonderful cottage, well presented with tasteful decor and furnishings .extremely clean throughout and lovely comfortable beds we loved Deal and will return ##### Ellen C. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2025 This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent Jul 31, 2025 #### A Lovely Retreat The Drift in Deal is a gorgeous property. It is beautifully furnished and provided so many lovely touches. I was very impressed with it all. We enjoyed a few days in this property which is centrally located and an easy walk into Deal. I also would praise the staff at Head Office. There was a problem with one of the door keys. This was dealt with very quickly and communication was excellent. Thank you.

Unfortunately the loo broke on the Saturday night and couldn't be fixed until Monday. Also the wifi was not answering to the password so I was was unable to access the Internet, but fortunately could manage by using my phone as an Internet hot spot. ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Yacht Bay View](https://www.expedia.ca/Morecambe-Hotels-Yacht-Bay-View.h3877588.Hotel-Information) > > [The Midland](https://www.expedia.ca/Morecambe-Hotels-Midland-Hotel.h2019737.Hotel-Information) > > [The Pearl Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Peterborough-Hotels-The-Pearl-Hotel.h6335144.Hotel-Information) > > [Townhouse Exeter](https://www.expedia.ca/Exeter-Hotels-Townhouse-Exeter.h15212615.Hotel-Information) > > [The Oaks](https://www.expedia.ca/Ellesmere-Hotels-The-Oaks.h27000273.Hotel-Information) > > [Doubletree by Hilton Hotel Woking](https://www.expedia.ca/Woking-Hotels-Doubletree-By-Hilton-Hotel-Woking.h786850.Hotel-Information) > > [Captivating 4-bed House in Dartford](https://www.expedia.ca/Dartford-Hotels-Captivating-4-Bed-House-In-Dartford.h100790779.Hotel-Information) > > [Low Wood Bay Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Windermere-Hotels-Low-Wood-Bay.h5243.Hotel-Information) > > [Glenhaven](https://www.expedia.ca/Saxmundham-Hotels-Glenhaven.h30997583.Hotel-Information) > > [The White Hart Royal Hotel, Moreton-in-Marsh](https://www.expedia.ca/Moreton-In-Marsh-Hotels-White-Hart-Royal-Hotel.h3848404.Hotel-Information) > > [The Clifton Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Morecambe-Hotels-The-Clifton-Hotel.h99855094.Hotel-Information) > > [Bike & Boot Peak District](https://www.expedia.ca/Hope-Valley-Hotels-Bike-Boot-Peak-District.h106103304.Hotel-Information) > > [The George](https://www.expedia.ca/Cheltenham-Hotels-The-George-Hotel.h45140643.Hotel-Information) > > [The Trout](https://www.expedia.ca/Cockermouth-Hotels-The-Trout.h11899282.Hotel-Information) > > [Delta Hotels by Marriott Peterborough](https://www.expedia.ca/Peterborough-Hotels-Peterborough-Marriott-Hotel.h691233.Hotel-Information) > > [Village Hotel Warrington](https://www.expedia.ca/Warrington-Hotels-Village-Hotel-Warrington.h8696.Hotel-Information) > > [No Man's Fort](https://www.expedia.ca/Portsmouth-Hotels-No-Mans-Fort.h11536410.Hotel-Information) > > [The Manor House](https://www.expedia.ca/Dronfield-Hotels-The-Manor-House.h4780993.Hotel-Information) > > [2bed Sleeps 3 - Central, Near Train Station, Wifi](https://www.expedia.ca/Dartford-Hotels-Cosy-2-Bed-Home-Central-Location.h112219665.Hotel-Information) > > [YotelAIR London Gatwick ](https://www.expedia.ca/Gatwick-Hotels-Yotel-Air-London-Gatwick.h18969729.Hotel-Information) > > [Tregarland Farm B&B](https://www.expedia.ca/Looe-Hotels-Tregarland-Farm-BB.h40111725.Hotel-Information) > > [The Sorrel Horse Inn](https://www.expedia.ca/Ipswich-Hotels-The-Sorrel-Horse-Inn.h21089391.Hotel-Information) > > [Harbour Hotel St Ives](https://www.expedia.ca/St-Ives-Hotels-St-Ives-Harbour-Hotel.h175599.Hotel-Information) > > [White Hart Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Martock-Hotels-White-Hart-Hotel.h2113415.Hotel-Information) > > [Tottington Manor](https://www.expedia.ca/Henfield-Hotels-Tottington-Manor.h33668731.Hotel-Information) > > [The Manor House](https://www.expedia.ca/Scarborough-Hotels-The-Manor-House.h44509462.Hotel-Information) > > [Pennyhill Park Hotel And Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Bagshot-Hotels-Pennyhill-Park-Hotel-And-Spa.h517256.Hotel-Information) > > [Lion & Swan Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Congleton-Hotels-Lion-Swan-Hotel.h67431685.Hotel-Information) > > [Tides Cottage](https://www.expedia.ca/Pevensey-Hotels-Tides-Cottage.h42241061.Hotel-Information)
