Super king bed, bunk room, sofa bed, well-stocked kitchen, Wi-Fi, TV, games, hairdryer, and highchair. Just minutes to the beach and arcades, and right across from the on-site launderette and clubhouse with food, live music, and a pool table. Pet-friendly and perfect for seaside-loving families. Book your stay today! 🛏 Sleeping Setup: Main Bedroom: Super king bed — no splitting, no faff, all the sprawling space you could want. Second Bedroom: Classic British bunk bed — ideal for kids or adventurous adults. Living Room: Double sofa bed — perfect for two more guests (or one with serious starfish energy). 👉 Sleeps up to 6, with 2 on the sofa bed — cosy, cheerful, and just right for those who don’t mind a bit of togetherness. 🍽 Dining Note: Table seats 4, so if you’re a party of 6, you’ll need to dine in shifts, get cosy, or head out for classic chips on the beach (mayo optional, seagulls inevitable). 🐾 Pet-Friendly Perks: Yes, your four-legged friend is welcome! Just a heads-up: there’s no secure outdoor space, so pups will need to be walked on a lead. Shellness end of Leysdown-on-Sea is dog-friendly all year, and if you\`re feeling brave, there’s even a nudist beach nearby. Just keep an eye out—your dog might mistake something for sausages! 😳 🦜 Bonus: it’s also a fab spot for birdwatching (we’re talking actual birds, not holiday flings). 🛋 Inside the Chalet: A comfy living area with a sofa bed, TV (that actually works!), and free Wi-Fi — though the signal can be a bit moody, so be prepared to chat, play board games, or embrace the digital detox. A well-stocked kitchen with everything you need to whip up a full English, heat up a pizza, or pretend you’re on Come Dine With Me. A clean bathroom with a proper shower and loo — no frills, just what you need. Hand towel provided, but please bring your own towels for showers and the beach. Hairdryer included for windswept beach hair emergencies. 👶 Travelling with Little Ones? There’s a highchair and changing mat available. Space is limited for a travel cot, but you\`re welcome to bring one if needed. 📍 Location Highlights: Just a 5-minute walk to the sandy beach 10-minute walk to the arcades, fish & chips, and corner shops Parking nearby, and everything is within flip-flop distance 🎯 Ideal For: Families, couples, nostalgic Brits, curious city folk, beach lovers, and dogs with big energy and zero sense of direction. Full private access to the chalet. A smart lock provides easy self check in, or guests can be met at the property if this is preferred. We aim to make your stay as comfortable as possible. We\`re available to answer any questions through Airbnb messaging and happy to provide assistance over the phone if needed. While we respect your privacy throughout your stay, feel free to reach out with any questions or requests—we’re here to help! Damage Protection & Guest Verification To help ensure a secure and smooth experience for all guests, we’re currently in the process of transitioning to SuiteOp, our new platform for guest verification and damage protection. While this transition is underway, we kindly ask guests to complete damage protection by selecting one of the following options: A refundable security deposit of £150, returned after your stay (subject to no damage being reported), or A non-refundable damage waiver of £45, which covers up to £150 in accidental damage. You’ll receive a secure payment link shortly to complete your chosen option ahead of your arrival. This step helps us prepare everything for a seamless check-in and ensures peace of mind for both parties. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation during this transition.
