Escape to the idyllic countryside and enjoy a peaceful retreat at this charming Hythe holiday home. Nestled in the charming village of Saltwood and surrounded by glorious countryside, yet just a mile from the sea, Bunny Cottage provides a practical base for couples or families wanting to explore both in this beautiful part of Kent.
Inside, the cottage feels considered and comfortable, with a fireplace forming the focal point of the sitting room. Carefully chosen furniture and amenities create an inviting space to settle in with a good book – or a glass of wine – surrounded by complementing artwork that adds to the sense of warmth and calm.
The open plan layout extends via a striking beam to the dining room, great for both cosy meals together and keeping the conversation going, while the fully equipped kitchen is perfect for whipping up meals with local ingredients. An enclosed patio garden allows guests to enjoy meals al fresco, or alternatively wake up with a cup of fresh coffee while listening to the early morning birdsong.
Hidden behind an unassuming door – likely a relief for families with adventurous young children – stairs lead to the first floor and two generously-sized bedrooms finished in neutral tones, with white bed linen and plump pillows offering a peaceful sanctuary for a restful night's sleep. Beautifully finished, the family bathroom benefits from both a shower and a spacious bathtub – useful for slower mornings or post-walk unwinding.
With plenty to do in the area, guests can look forward to a stay that reflects their requirements at Bunny Cottage. Brockhill Country Park just a 10-minute walk away – offering woodland trails, open grassland and lake views – while the coastline in Hythe and Folkestone provides easy access to pebble beaches, long seafront walks, and many dining and shopping options. The Michelin-starred Hide and Fox is within walking distance of the holiday cottage, and the village pub sits just a minute from the front door for more informal meals. A 15-minute walk down the hill will take you to central Hythe, where independent shops, restaurants and cafés line the historic high street, and the Royal Military Canal provides an easy extension to any outing.
Overall, Bunny Cottage suits guests looking for a comfortable retreat – whatever that may look like.

Saltwood is a charming village that offers a perfect mix of countryside and coastal living. If you're a nature lover, you'll love exploring the surrounding picturesque countryside on foot, with glorious Brockhill Country Park a short walk away, whilst the seaside town of Hythe is nearby should you be seeking the coast. For those looking for a traditional pub experience, you won't have to go far — the village pub is just a minutes’ walk away, where you enjoy a bite to eat or a drink after a day of exploring, and soak up the friendly village atmosphere, whilst for foodies out there, the Michelin-starred Hide and Fox restaurant is just a short walk away, offering a delectable culinary experience, with a tasting menu that showcases the best of local and seasonal produce.
If you're craving some time by the sea, the seaside town of Hythe is just a few minutes' drive away or a 15-minute walk downhill. Here, you can explore the charming high street, which is filled with independent shops, restaurants, and cafés. Separating the sea from the quaint high street, the Royal Military Canal awaits, with a peaceful pathway along its banks and boats to explore on the water come Spring-Summer.
When you are ready for the sounds of the waves, a beautiful walk from the high street, over the canal, leads you along a tree-lined walk along to the seafront. Whether you want to sit on the pebbles, stroll, or cycle along the promenade, stretching as far as vibrant Folkestone, or sit in one of the beachfront cafés with lunch in hand, the choice is yours. Animal lovers will also enjoy a visit to the nearby Port Lympne Reserve Park, where you can get up close and personal with exotic animals and take in the stunning views of the surrounding countryside.

Bunny Cottage is well equipped for a comfortable self-catering stay, with bed linen, towels, and kitchen essentials provided.
