Kid-friendly holiday rentals in Herne Bay

We had a lovely stay here, Nick was an excellent host, greeted us on arrival and very helpful with local info. Nick responded almost immediately to messages and had the pool ready for us to use as and when we requested. The kids had so much fun in the pool, the floats and toys left out to use were an added bonus! House was spotless and perfectly equipped. Would definitely Recommend and would happily return. Thanks for a great stay

We have spent half term at Lisa’s place, the house is very spacious, located in quiet residential area, about 10 minutes walk from the train station and 25-30 from the town centre which was exactly what we wanted. Lovely large property for our group of 9, we love the gym and hot tub plus a basket of goodies on arrival was an unexpected touch. We had a great stay and was so lucky with the weather too, did lots of small trips with kids so train station nearly was very handy. Would definitely recommend it.

Lovely house, in a great location. Nice private garden and all the amenities you could need. Very convenient for the railway station too.

Lovely spacious cottage matching description and photos. Town centre so easily walkable to the beach, high street and Deal’s many restaurants and bars. Janey’s cottage has everything you’d need if you want to cook, and the back garden is a lovely private sheltered space to spend time outdoors. Communication from Janey was friendly and helpful and it was easy to check in via the lockbox.

Good location & thoughtful amenities, thank you!

What a find. Wonderful helpful and friendly family. We didn't have any issues with anything relating to this location. Clean well equipped and spacious property. Quiet location within walking distance of the local pub. Park and ride to Canterbury within five miles and cost £4. for the two of us. Location was perfect for us. We would definitely choose to stay with Emily and Simon again when we are next in Kent.

This was our second visit to the Lighthouse and it still is an amazing place, from the panoramic sea views to a lovely warm inviting home. A dip in the pool before breakfast, sitting with a coffee watching the seascape, as far as Essex and beyond, sunsets and so much more. I will make the same comment as I did last, this goes for the whole of our party across 3 generations and the dogs, the only bad thing about the Lighthouse is having to leave. Hopefully this will not be our last visit.

Had a great great stay in this lovely house for a special birthday celebration. All communications were excellent ,made easy and Jo couldn’t have been more helpful. The house was as described and a haven for us all. Very comfortable for our needs and everything thought of. So many lovely touches of homeliness from decor to crockery. All 7 ladies who stayed felt the same. Walked into Whitstable along the coastal path which was easy and enjoyable , about 1 hour 50 mins. Thank you for everything. We would all come back!

We had the most amazing stay at Paula’s flat. She had thought of everything for both us and our dogs! The flat is beautifully decorated with so many quirky bits and pieces to look at. Thanks for the dog treats and the yummy caramel shortcakes, a lovely touch too. Loved Whitstable too….. we can’t wait to come back very soon😊

Great little apartment. Really cool use of space in loft room. Appreciated breakfast bits. Bed comfy. Lots of hot water. Good selection of DVD'S. Not too far to walk to city centre. David was a great host and kindly let us park there for the day. Great find!

I was so impressed with this apartment, it was spotless, well located, fantastic sea view! It’s a short walk from the station, on the sea front. The kitchen is well equipped and there was ice in the freezer! Highly recommend.

Reviewing on behalf of my son Will- they were delighted with Helen’s place. All as described, great inside, good location and on street parking- in Whitstable, a real bonus! Helen shared a lovely pub recommendation which they enjoyed, responded quickly and was very helpful with arranging check in as convenient. Helen also retrieved a very eagerly anticipated artisan brownie for them that had got left behind!😊

A lovely house, beautifully decorated, great facilities and amazing attention to detail. Hosts provided valuable local information and restaurant recommendations.

The Annex is spacious, airy and comfortable. It's close to a bus stop but a walkable distance from the city centre. Dawn is a very responsive, considerate host. I very much enjoyed my stay.

Genevieve’s flat was lovely, perfect location and beautifully decorated. So close to the train station, beaches and all of Margate’s restaurants. Would highly recommend for a trip to the coast

Found Helen to be a lovely sociable host , directions were great , communications and information on places to eat and other stuff we asked for was very very helpful. We paid a bit more than normal for the room as it was May Day Bank Holiday Weekend and also there was a Peter Cushing Convention on in town , but we were happy to pay this price not a problem at all as we knew from the start how much it was , and please remember anybody who reads this ok they may charge higher this time of year but please remember the times when they may struggle in bad months winter etc , bad weather etc etc - so no complaints about the charge at all. The place was spotless , clean , relaxing , appliances in kitchen , tv and dvd (never really got time to use them as out all the time - but for anyone else this would be ideal , also board games etc. Bathroom was the highlight - massive with a free standing bath and a massive shower ie you are not struggling to move - fantastic. Beds where very comfy.

A beautiful well decorated and comfortable flat with unbeatable views of the harbour. Great communication with the hosts made everything easy. Thank you for a great stay! We hope to come back soon.

Great property and host.

Nice and relaxing place. Very well equipped especially the kitchen area. Welcoming big basket, even milk and butter in the fridge and ice cream. A little bit more cleaning needed and carpets especially. But a great ans beautiful place to stay, very friendly and communicative hosts.

Zoe was a brilliant host - the apartment was beautifully furnished, spotless and wonderfully located. Zoe was so helpful in the lead up and during our stay and we would definitely stay here again! Thank you

Alex and Jess are incredible hosts offering a wonderful and welcoming guest suite. The hosts were friendly, helpful, clear, and prompt with all communication; they offer plenty of recommendations for any potential tourists, and leave detailed instructions answering all questions. The location is quiet and peaceful, surrounded by many beautiful trees in just a 20 minute walk from the Canterbury town centre. Nearby neighbours are friendly and quiet. The place was completely spotless, featuring comfortable furniture and necessary amenities. Water pressure and temperature range was perfect, as well (a huge bonus). One note for tall guests is that the ceiling slopes a bit low in some parts (see the listing photos), but this was not a concern for myself at all. There is a slight hill getting up to the address, but the surrounding trees provide cool shade. Overall, I had a perfect stay and would totally recommend Alex and Jess’ place. Thanks for the lovely stay.

Tom’s place was perfect for our Canterbury visit. It was exceptionally clean, great location with amazing river views, all the attractions and restaurants were a short walk away. His apartment was beautifully decorated and modern with an excellent kitchen and bathroom. Tom was very friendly and great communicator. I highly recommend his beautiful apartment.

We have never been to Herne Bay . As it such fine weather ,and rather than me paying silly prices for a hotel in London, we found this gem . It very near the beach and the facilities Herne Bay had to offer were fantastic , both busy and quiet and great notices of local facts eg Amy Johnson. Also easy walk from railway station. Followed up the hosts recommendation of local facilities and saw fabulous sunset from the pub . The host answered very quickly the one query we had . Would recommend for even singles, as it felt a safe area , as well as couples with or without children, or in our case a doggy . All facilities for him also .

• Perfect location • Flat was easy to find • Flat was clean and tidy • Host answered all our queries • Flexible with check in time • Reasonably priced Thank you!
