Overview
Capel Cottage
A charming countryside cottage with a private garden annexe, perfect for bringing everyone together while giving everyone their own space.
Tucked away in the lovely village of Capel-le-Ferne, just moments from the spectacular Kent coastline, Capel Cottage is a welcoming retreat for up to six guests and their four-legged companions. Combining traditional cottage character with the added luxury of a separate, self-contained garden annexe, this is a wonderful choice for families, groups of friends and multigenerational holidays.
The main cottage is full of warmth and personality, with beautiful wooden floors, characterful features and a cosy lounge complete with a working log burner. It's the perfect spot to curl up after a day exploring the coast, enjoying a glass of wine or settling in for a relaxed evening together. Guests wishing to use the log burner simply need to bring their own wood.
At the heart of the home is a spacious, traditional kitchen, complete with a range cooker, large fridge freezer, dishwasher and washing machine. Whether you're preparing a hearty breakfast before heading out or cooking up a family feast, you'll find everything you need to make yourself at home. The separate dining area comfortably seats six, bringing everyone together around the table for leisurely meals and evenings catching up.
The main cottage offers two beautifully presented bedrooms, one with a luxurious super king bed and the other with a comfortable double, alongside a family bathroom complete with a bath.
Your own little retreat at the bottom of the garden
What makes Capel Cottage particularly special is its delightful, self-contained garden annexe. Nestled at the far end of the enclosed garden, this contemporary, heated pod offers a lovely sense of independence while remaining just steps away from the main cottage.
Inside, you'll find an open-plan sleeping and living space with a double bed, comfortable seating, a TV and a handy kitchenette, together with its own shower room. Available all year round, it's ideal for grandparents, another couple or family members who appreciate a little extra privacy without missing out on time together.
Sunny gardens and room to unwind
Outside, the cottage enjoys both front and rear gardens, with an enclosed space that's especially appealing for guests bringing dogs. The rear garden catches the afternoon sunshine and offers a patio and outdoor furniture, perfect for morning coffees, lazy afternoons or enjoying a drink as the day winds down.
And with up to four dogs welcome, there's no need to leave any of your furry family members behind!

One of the village's greatest treasures is its breathtaking clifftop setting. Just a short walk from the cottage, you'll discover sweeping views across the English Channel, with beautiful coastal paths offering miles of walking opportunities and plenty of fresh sea air. It's a particularly lovely spot for dog owners, walkers and anyone who enjoys being outdoors.
Also within walking distance is the Battle of Britain Memorial, home to the National Memorial to the Few and the fascinating Scramble Experience, an interactive exhibition dedicated to the heroes of the Battle of Britain. With its impressive clifftop setting and panoramic sea views, it's well worth a visit.

The surrounding Kent countryside is dotted with pretty villages, traditional pubs and scenic walking routes, while the nearby coastal towns of Hythe and Sandgate offer charming seafronts, independent cafés and lovely places to stop for lunch.
