We like our little yellow cottage and we hope our guests enjoy staying there as much as we do. We look forward to hearing from you.

  • A stylish cottage on the seaside, almost on the beach, with amazing sea view and all necessary for spending great time with family! Very cozy leaving room, fully equipped kitchen and comfy beds in the bedrooms made our long weekend perfect! The books and ship models added to the atmosphere, and I particularly enjoyed the big window in the living room where you can sit and read a book or have your tea enjoying the sea view. We especially appreciated the travel cot available for our 3 years old son, for which there was enough space in the master bedroom. Sandgate proved to be a very nice place with lots of nice cafes and restaurants, pubs and a wine bar. Great place to spend time at the seaside! Strongly recommend!

    We are from the Czech Republic and we definitely plan to come back sometime.
    Thank you so, so much 💕

  • What a sweet little seaside cottage to enjoy our Easter in England! Looking out to the beach from the cosy inside was lovely, and everything we needed was conveniently located - lots of great places to eat and explore.
    Our family of 4 had a wonderful time - thank you.

    — Watson, 06 Apr 2026

  • We had a lovely break here at the start of our Easter Holiday!
    The Kids loved the beach and spent hours throwing and stacking pebbles(!).
    Port Lympne was amazing and it was our first time visiting the White Cliffs of Dover too.
    Your cottage is small but perfectly formed and wonderfully peaceful. Thank You.

    — Fry, 02 Apr 2026

  • We had a great time in the cottage in Sandgate! Really well situated with easy parking just behind the property. Our kids loved the beach and Sandgate itself if very sweet with lots of amenities. Great communication and the cottage was exactly as described. Thank you!

  • A fantastic stay at The Yellow House — truly a 5-star experience. The space was spotless, cozy, and incredibly comfortable, making it the perfect place to unwind. Everything was well thought out and created such a welcoming, relaxed atmosphere.
    We had a wonderful time and would highly recommend it to anyone. Looking forward to staying again!

    — Karoly, 15 Mar 2026

  • Another wonderful stay at The Yellow House. It’s always such a cozy, clean, and comfortable place to stay, and it truly feels welcoming the moment you arrive. The location is great and everything is well cared for, making it easy to relax and enjoy your time there.
    A definite five-star stay every time. We look forward to visiting again!

    — Karoly, 08 Mar 2026

  • I highly recommend staying here. It was clean and comfortable. Great location. Easy access to the beach and local restaurants.

    — Karoly, 10 Jan 2026

  • A characterful cottage in a great location almost on the beach at Sandgate. Clean and cosy, great shower, and very comfortable beds with white linen and fluffy towels. The place feels like a real home and nicely lived in. We loved our stay there.

    — Jane, 30 Dec 2025

  • We had a lovely time staying in peaceful Sandgate. Incredible to be so close to the sea in such a picturesque and cosy cottage. We really enjoyed feeling like we were staying in someone's cherished home and particularly appreciated all the books, well-stocked kitchen and pretty front garden. There are plenty of nice cafes and pubs on the doorstep and lots of fun to be had for families looking for a classic seaside holiday. The adventure playground along the coastal walk, adventure golf, romney, hythe and dymchurch railway and sunny sands beach were particular highlights! Thank you so much for a really fun and relaxing stay.

    — Kate Forde, 26 Aug 2025

  • This home in Sandgate was amazing, and really great value for what we paid! The home is super cosy with lots of space for at least four people, and it is so close to the beach. Would come back for sure, and would definitely recommend!

    — Tara Macinis, 14 Aug 2025

  • You could not get a more perfect location, as this cottage is right next to the beach. I could have watched the sea from the lovely window sea for hours! Sandgate is a lovely place, which we visit often and we'll be booking this place again for sure! The house itself is gorgeous and extremely homely, with everything we needed (and more!) for our family. The host was very, very helpful and were extremely responsive. We can't wait to come back!

    — Louise Hoole, 08 Aug 2025

  • We had a great visit. Lovely accommodation.

    — Frances Pearl, 04 Aug 2025

  • quaint and well equipped cottage. very comfortable and just big enough for four people. felt right at home. so easy for the beach and for local amenities. nice bonus to have sea views which we were not expecting!

    — Martha Tracey, 06 Jul 2025

  • Very sweet cottage with all amenities in a good beach location. John Dory wine bar/restaurant was excellent. Lovely 3 hour walk to Saltwood Castle from the cottage. Rock Salt restaurant in Folkstone also excellent.

    — Julia Rogers, 05 Jun 2025

  • Lovely cottage. Great amenities. Seaside lovely. Local cafe nearby called Loaf was fantastic too.

    — Yusef Badi, 15 May 2025

  • This is our third time staying in the cottage-it’s in the perfect location right by the beach and really homely and cosy (but also plenty of space for the 4 of us). Really well equipped too. Can’t fault it.

    — Helen T, 05 May 2025

  • Lovely cottage right on the beach. Coffee shops, deli, restaurants etc of Sandgate a few mins walk away on the High St. Kitchen well equipped and High chair provided. Water pressure in shower/ bath was excellent. Toilets upstairs and downstairs was a bonus. We were staying with our one and three year olds. The stairs are steep so it was good that stairgates were provided (we did need to screw them into the fittings ourselves). Thanks for a lovely weekend!

    — Lily Friend, 01 May 2025

  • A Lovely Stay at Sea View Cottage 🌊🏡 My family and I had the pleasure of staying at Sea View Cottage in Hythe, and we had a wonderful time! The cottage is beautifully decorated and well-maintained, offering a cozy and inviting atmosphere. The highlight of our stay was undoubtedly the stunning sea views from the windows - watching the sunset was simply breathtaking. The cottage is well-equipped with everything we needed for a comfortable stay, including a lovely coffee machine.

    — Lucinda Parker, 28 Apr 2025

  • Our stay at the little yellow cottage by the sea was pure magic. This unexpected haven gave our little family a much-needed breath of peace and joy. With our two young children, we spent mornings throwing stones into the sea and wandering the peaceful promenade just steps away. The location was perfect: close to an adventure playground and a short drive (or walk) to Folkestone, taking in Rana Begum’s Beach hut on route and ending the amazing harbour. The cottage itself was full of light and charm, a cosy retreat after days of exploring. Coffee and cake at Loaf, lunch at The Ship Inn. Super easy to get a grocery delivery from Waitrose via Deliveroo (a blessing with tired children). The kids were enchanted. So were we. We’ll definitely be back.

    — Rachel Brown, 26 Apr 2025

  • Very quaint little cottage, lovely view of the water and good access to local coffee shops & restaurants. Ideal for a weekend break.

    — Daniel Nikolareas, 20 Apr 2025

  • We really enjoyed are visit to Fiona’s cottage. It’s a loved and lovely cottage. It’s also in a great location to explore this bit of coastline. We visited Dungeness, Folkestone and samphire hoe (the eurotunnel nature reserve). We were only staying for the weekend but we’ll be back to visit for longer next time. Thank you.

    — Helen McTernan, 01 Feb 2025

  • We loved staying in this very cosy house by the sea. The location was so convenient for cafes and shops and good bus and train transport. We had no car but Hythe and Folkestone walkable and on a good bus route. The next time we will go on the steam railway at Hythe! It was just lovely to be a few yards from the beach and see the sea from the cottage. We liked Sandgate very much for walks and cafes. It was even nicer than we had expected. We hope to return soon.

    — Sally Chubb, 08 Oct 2024

  • Lovely cottage. Full of character and so many thoughtful additions to make you feel at home. Perfect location with cafés, restaurants, pubs and shops on your doorstep plus great for walks for all abilities.

    — Donna H, 10 Aug 2024

  • We enjoyed our stay, although we experienced a gas leak in the house. The owner got onto the gas authority immediately. Unfortunately we had to stay in the house while the problems were fixed, thus missing out on our first dinner with our English family . The owner kept in touch with us throughout

    — Jennifer P, 01 Aug 2024

  • My family had an absolutely wonderful stay over a bank holiday weekend. The house fit 2 adults and 3 children very well! We loved the original features of the home and the renovations were outstanding. We spent a full day at Dover Castle and had plenty of food options nearby when we returned that evening. We walked along the beach to Adventure Park in Folkstone and enjoyed that very much. The trip was fun filled but also very relaxing! The home had absolutely everything we needed for our stay. My children were quite sad to leave and are already asking when we can go back! Thank you so much to the incredible hosts for their part in making such wonderful family memories.

    — Ashlee, 10 Jun 2024

  • I cannot recommend this delightful holiday property more than is possible.
    The cottage was very homely and its position to the beach and also walking distance to Folkestone or Hythe added to our enjoyment,
    This is in the top 5 of our cottage holidays.

    — David Lloyd, 24 Jan 2024

  • Lovely cottage, felt at home immediately, having the beach and see so close was wonderful. The cottage was well equipped and very comfortable. Hope to return next year.

    — Janice Larkin, 14 Aug 2023

    Many thanks.

    — Andrea & Alison from NZ, 31 Dec 2022

    Well equipped, clean, and , of course, perfect position.
    Thank you.

    — Ian & Caroline, 26 Dec 2022

    — Dawn Madden-Butler, 14 Sep 2022

    — Joy, 30 Jul 2022

  • Perfect check-in, hosts quick available for any questions. the house was very clean and it is well equipped. we spent 10 great days there.

    — Tobias , 22 Jul 2022

  • We had a lovely stay in the little yellow cottage. Location was perfect for enjoying the seaside and visiting family and friends. The kitchen was well equipped, beds comfortable, living room cosy. The window nook was a lovely place to enjoy coffee and a book. Steps away from the beach. Would recommend!

    — Coleen F, 08 Jul 2022

  • Perfect.
    We so enjoyed our stay. The cottage was clean, comfortable and charming. The location was perfect. Thank you for a wonderful stay.

    — Pat S, 13 Mar 2022

  • Lovely cottage by the sea with good views of the sunsets.
    Great location for enjoying Sandgate.

    — Alison, 20 Jan 2022

  • We thought the property was beautiful. Very cosy, clean and comfortable. We were fortunate that the weather was particularly nice for November, we even managed a dip in the channel....not for the faint hearted.

    Would definitely recommend.

    Only downside was no private parking space, but with £5 a day charge in the adjacent car park it wasn't a problem for us for a couple of days.

    — Samantha F., 20 Nov 2021

  • We loved the cottage, great location, really comfortable, nice sea views and perfect for a relaxing break. We would definitely recommend it and consider coming again.

    — Hugh Weldon, 18 Oct 2021

  • Fantastic location and the views from the windows were so lovely. The accomodation was stylish, comfortable and cosy. Good local ammenities and beach just a hop skip and a jump away.

    — Stuart, 07 Sep 2021

  • This lovely old cottage provided us a beautiful sea-view sun-trap and a cool retreat during the heatwave. There is more space than the listing suggests and the provision is quirky, quality and generous. Ornaments and books and pictures all reflect the specific setting. If you want clinical, generic and sleek, look elsewhere. We spent a comfortable week, pottering about happily and watching the world go by.

    — Laura, 20 Jul 2021

  • Just arrived home after 3 nights at this pretty cottage. Lovely sea views, very cosy and comfortable, nearby restaurants are great and a hot chocolate at the Boat House Cafe whilst watching the world go by is always good. I highly recommend The Little Yellow Cottage.

    — Anne Dickson, 24 May 2021

  • Spent the most amazing week with 3 friends. The cottage is beautiful and has everything you need. Stunning views with lovely sights to see. There are plenty of restaurants. Neighbours are friendly. Would highly recomend.

    — Maddie, Dan, Adele & Emily, 31 Jul 2020

  • Amazing cottage thank you for a wonderful Xmas stay. The cute decorations make it very special for the children. We loved being right by the sea for walks and sitting by the window looking out to the beach.
    Beautiful sunrises and sunsets. My daughter enjoyed the local parks and playing hide and seek around the house.
    Great stay .
    Thanks

    — Sarah, Paul, Amy & Rowan, Ealing London, 23 Dec 2019

  • Thank you so much for the lovely stay! Especially the thoughtful Christmas decor making the cottage feel like home. We've been visiting our children in the area for 10 years and we have all voted this cottage #1 of all our 25 plus visits. Have a Merry Christmas.

  • Hello, Votre maison est magnifique

    — Familie Roz Vamon, 02 Nov 2019

  • We stayed in this quaint little cottage with our two granddaughters during half term. We know the area having lived nearby for over 38 years.
    We thoroughly enjoyed staying in the cottage and even though it is old and creaky we always felt warm and cosy here just what we wanted.
    The cottage is in an ideal positionfor the beach, and nearby holiday attractions and shopping facilities. It is also equipped with everything you may need during your stay.
    Thankyou for sharing your lovely cottage with us and we hope to return again.

    — The Ruds, 30 Jul 2019

  • We stayed here for 2 nightson the front end of our 11 night Disney Cruise.
    We had been to the area twice before but had never stayed overnight.
    We enjoyed our stay very much. The people in the area are very friendly and the beach was not crowded at all.
    The owners are very accomodating and helpful.
    Thank you for a memorable stay.

    — Jackson Family, Fort Smith, Arkansas, 21 Jul 2019

  • We came here to witness the launching of our new Saga Ship - the Spirit of Discovery.
    We had a really lovely stay and enjoyed the cottage with its maritime theme throughout the 7 days we stayed here.
    The beautiful beach every morning, nice neighbours, British summer at its best...it couldn't get any better!

    — Kirsten, Sarah & Gaby, 09 Jul 2019

    Very highly recommended.

    — Kat & family @ The Cheshire Magazine, 06 Jul 2019

    — Chris, 30 Jun 2019

  • A lovely stay for 4 nights and well equipped for 4 people. Great paces to visit nearby. We would definitely book again.

    — Sarah, 16 Jun 2019

  • We all had a really lovely stay at Sea View. The location is superb - excellent for all local eateries and being so close to the sea is wonderful. The local shop is a real bonus for the morning papers and little needs. We had a lovely meal at Sandgate Vaults - great beer at the Microbar and a very nice meal at the Norfolk Inn.
    Very comfortable accomodation with all you need.

    — Sally, Tom, Angela and Andy, 01 Jun 2019

  • Lovely Easter Bank Holiday by the Sea; enjoyed having our breakfaston the benches near to the beach, walking to Folkestone & going out to Dungeness & the white Cliffs of Dover. Cosy Cottage for the evening.

    — Matilda & Leonor, 22 Apr 2019

  • A very warm and comfortable stay.

    — Sid & Carole, 11 Mar 2019

  • We have loved this little cottage from afar.
    Sandgate is a lovely location esp. with nice cafes, great restaurants, great pubs.
    Loved the cottage, comfortable bedrooms with fantastic sea views, loved the window seat!
    Extra touches made all the difference. Loved the Hive heating. Your instructions and places to visit.
    Place is excellent for 4 people or small family.
    Famous people connections H.G.Wells, Hattie Jacques. Local fish restaurant and Ship Inn never dissapoints.
    We will return.

    — Phillipe & Jan / MCC & Janet, 01 Nov 2018

  • Great Cottage in great location.
    Fabulous sea views from the cottage.
    Wonderful being so close to seafront walks, the path to Folkestone & Hythe,
    and being able to sit on the benches just metres from the door gazing out to sea.
    It was great having the boat house Cafe so close to cottage.
    Thank you.

    — Vickie & Clinton, 30 Oct 2018

  • What a lovely cottage!!
    We booked via the internet & were not dissapointed. Beautifully decorated and very thoughtfully equipped.
    The window seat was occupied by our daughter but as it was comfy throughout we never had a problem.
    We loved the carboot sales in Hythe and can recomend the Neptune pub in Dymchurch for Sunday roast.
    Thanks a lot.

    — Peter & Birgita , 07 Sep 2018
