About this property

Floral Cottage is an historic house on the viking trail coastal cycling route. Located next to Kent wildlife trust's largest nature reserve, Sandwich and Pegwell Bay. Close to local taverns with outdoor seating and cliff top views and an easy 2km walk into Ramsgate town centre and its royal harbour. There are sandy beaches in walking distance.
The cottage was built around 1830. The ground floor has a lounge with television, two sofas, dining area and fully equipped kitchen with oven and induction hob. Upstairs there are two double bedrooms (one with double bed and the other with two singles) and modern bathroom with shower over bath. The kitchen leads to the 30 metres garden.
It is a great place to relax and makes an excellent base for touring Kent and the Isle of Thanet. Neighbouring towns of Broadstairs, Margate and Sandwich are a short drive away. Other historic towns and places of interest such as Canterbury Cathedral and Dover Castle can be reached within 30 mins drive.
The location of the house is in a quiet village on the outskirts of Ramsgate, but there are two family friendly pubs with restaurants very close by, so it is not isolated. The house does not have its own off-street parking, and due to the narrow road it is not legal to park immediately outside the house. There is free on-street parking 100 metres in either direction, and it is possible to stop outside to pick up or drop off bags and passengers. The area is popular with golfers and bird-watchers. Local water-sports include kite surfing, SUP and kayaking.

Had a great stay at the cottage

The cottage is nice and clean and the garden is wonderful. The property was fully equipped, which was great, so we didn’t need to bring things like towels, liquids etc with us. We had a wonderful time, and the nearby pubs are recommendable as well!

Perfect house for a family holiday at the seaside

The house is so beautiful and well equipped and also has a very nice garden, so everything you need for holidays with kids. It‘s well located for nice seaside walks and there‘s a really nice pub with a great view just across the street.

Beautiful cottage made a perfect holiday

Thanks a lot to Ruth and her husband for the wonderful stay. Both were really friendly and provided us with a lot useful information about Ramsgate and the Region. Check-in and check-out were super easy. The cottage is perfect: extraordinarily clean, well-equipped and the garden is but a dream come true. We hope to return soon.

Fantastic cottage!

We stayed at Floral Cottage for a short three-night getaway, and we're so happy we did. The property is clean, well-equipped, and decorated in a tasteful way. And it's location is perfect: you can watch the sun set over the bay and the cliffs from the master bedroom windows, and there are so many wonderful walks and other activities available nearby. Would be very happy to stay again.

Lovely cottage in great location

Floral Cottage was even lovelier than it looked in the photos, also very clean and comfortable. We enjoyed sitting in the garden in the August sunshine and the pubs across the road were very handy for a meal or drink, though never noisy. Being right near the coastal path was perfect for a morning run or walk. Ruth was very helpful and communicative about our stay. We'd be happy to stay here again.

Lovely cottage to explore Kent coast

Ruth's cottage was really lovely, clean and fully equipped on a quiet cliff road overlooking the sea. Ruth was very helpful and her tips about local charms were really useful. We enjoyed Ramsgate fully and visited Sandwich, Deal, Margate and Howletts Wildlife Park. We recommend her place for a great getaway for family or couple. Thanks Ruth!

Family visit

Nice little cottage in Pegwell Village. It was very clean and comfortable and well equipped. The listing does indicate that parking is only on street and a short walk away. Due to the inclement weather this was a mild nuisance. I would recommend this property to anyone wanting to stay in the Ramsgate area.

Summer Hols 2021

A lovely welcome guide provided by Ruth before arrival to help with accommodation logistics and provide inspiration with what to do and where to go around the area. A great little house, was plenty big enough for a family of 4 including 2 teenagers normally glued to their phones, and was in a good location to visit a number of the surrounding locations. Would recommend to others :)

Bank holiday by the sea!

We wanted a "bucket and spade" type of break away with our daughter and grandson (nearly 3) and the house suited us very well. It was well equipped, clean and comfortable and the garden was a real bonus. The online details were accurate and the information sent prior to our break really helped us make the most of the area. Ruth, the host, kept in contact in a friendly and very helpful way. On street parking was easy and only a little way from the front door! Having a pub opposite was also very convenient, however (this is not a criticism at all - but perhaps a bit of useful information for you are considering a visit)- glass collection was early in the morning and the smashing was pretty noisy!

Perfect stay in Ruth's lovely cottage

Our stay was just perfect. First, the communication was excellent: we always had very quick answers to our messages and questions. Then, she accepted an earl-check-in because circumstances allowed it. That was really appreciated and it made our lives easier with two young children. When we checked-in, we could see the cottage was as described: lovely, nice, comfortable, ideally located (near the beach, near a path, just opposite two great pubs, neear other lovely towns in Kent) and it was very clean. We definitely recommend Ruth's cottage and we will undoubtedly book it again in the near future.

Wunderbar

Wir haben zu dritt zwei Wochen in diesem schönen Haus verbracht. Aufgrund des durchgängig unglaublichen Sommerwetters haben wir alle Mahlzeiten im schönen Garten zu uns genommen. Dort musste man sich (bzw. die Lebensmittel) nur vor den räuberischen Möwen hüten. Aber auch das Haus selbst haben wir genossen, denn alles ist auf aktuellem Stand, es fehlte vor allem auch in der Küche an nichts und alles war makellos sauber. Die in anderen Bewertungen angesprochene Hellhörigkeit können wir bestätigen. Das betraf allerdings nicht die Nachbarn, sondern eher die Gäste, die in die oder aus den umliegenden Lokalen kamen. Von der Lautstärke her war es hierbei egal, ob die Fenster geöffnet oder geschlossen waren. Allerdings war in den Lokalen immer ziemlich genau um 23 Uhr Zapfenstreich und es wurde danach so ruhig, dass einer entspannten Nachtruhe nichts im Wege stand. Schlimm wurde es nur, wenn einmal pro Woche morgens um 6 Uhr das Altglas abgeholt wurde. Aber auch damit konnten wir umgehen. Nach Ramsgate kommt man bequem, die meiste Zeit auf der schönen Promenade oben an der Steilküste, in 20-30 Minuten zu Fuß. Auch ins benachbarte Broadstairs (Dickens House) und Cliffsend (Wikingerschiff, verlassener Hoverport) sind wir spaziert. Weitere lohnende Ziele, dann aber mit dem Auto, waren Canterbury, Whitstable, Sandwich und Deal. An einem Tag waren wir zudem im Outlet Centre in Ashford und auch Folkestone und Tenterden haben wir besucht. Der Kontakt mit der Vermieterin Ruth war unkompliziert und herzlich, das Ein- und Auschecken vollkommen problemlos dank der Schlüsselbox. Alles in allem ein toller Urlaub, der leider viel zu schnell vorüber war. Wir kommen aber gern wieder. Thank you, Ruth! We hope to return to Floral Cottage someday in the future.

About the host

Hosted by Ruth

What makes this property unique

In the long history of the cottage it has been used as a sea captain's retirement home, Tea Gardens and a Florists. It is possible that potted shrimps were served to a young Queen Victoria in the Tea Gardens before she came to the throne.
There is a network of tunnels running under the houses in the village coming from the bottom of the cliffs and under the Belle Vue, which were used by smugglers in days of old.
