Set along one of Broadstairs’ most desirable residential streets, The Wicket is a contemporary coastal home designed for laid-back stays by the sea, complete with private parking – a real bonus in this popular seaside town. Just a ten-minute walk from the gentle sandy curves of Stone Bay, this recently-built home pairs modern design with thoughtful spaces for group self-catering stays, making way for drinks around the kitchen island, al fresco meals on the patio, or film nights in the sitting room warmed by the log burner.
Inside, carefully chosen artwork and plush textures extend throughout the home, including in the four beautifully-presented bedrooms (sleeping 8 in total), making The Wicket ideal for multi-generational family holidays, seaside weekends with friends, or longer stays on the Kent coast.
In the immediate area, Stone Bay – and its neighbouring six sheltered bays – has long been loved by visitors and locals alike. Days here can easily be spent crabbing in rock pools, fossil hunting along the shore, or paddling in the shallows, before evenings unfold among Broadstairs’ independent cafés, restaurants, and seaside pubs.
For those keen to explore further, the four-mile ‘Turner to Dickens’ walk links Margate’s art scene with Broadstairs and its connection to Charles Dickens, while cricket lovers can enjoy a day at Canterbury’s famous ground. Nearby Deal, Whitstable, and Sandwich are all within batting distance too, for day trips along the Kent coast.
With stays in Broadstairs, sandy beaches, salty chips, and hot battered fish linger in the memory long after you’ve left this quintessential British seaside town. Whatever the weather, it’s the kind of place that calls for family games, long coastal walks, and – of course – a cheeky ice cream by the sea.
