Bird House Margate

Bird House Margate is close to everything, making it easy to plan your visit. There are bars, cafes, restaurants, a bakery within yards, art galleries and you can see the sea from the end of the road. The shell grotto is close, as well as the popular Dalby Cafe & Scott's antiques. It's a short walk to the turner gallery. I converted the flat myself from an old garage, I was keen for it to retain its loft style character. For those interested in the environment the flat is mostly run on solar.

Sunset Sea View Writer’s Retreat

Beautiful flat with six sea facing floor to ceiling windows. This is a Grade II-listed building with a rare outlook over gardens and out to sea. However, the facade and railing are in need of TLC. Don't be put off by the shabby exterior. Works are being slowly undertaken to renew the outside but this all takes time. The flat may not be suitable for toddlers and young children as the windows open to the floor. No TV, but a projector is supplied. New! Insanely comfy dog bed.
