A very English adventure

In contrast with some of London’s contemporary architecture and aesthetics Whitstable felt like the picturesque little seaside town I’d been looking for. The hugely seductive house we rented was the main ingredient behind the success of our weekend. With its impressive view and location we experienced the thrill and passion of living near water, we wandered about the town absorbing the very English atmosphere, visited Sandwich and Canterbury, and we forgot about London life for a few days. A real treat.

The pictures I took show the house, beach, harbour and Canterbury Cathedral

The house looks stunning, I hope you had a lovely time! This has reminded me, yet again, that I must start looking into short breaks in this country.

I love everything about these photos- they are perfect! I've never been to Whitstable- how far is it from London? It looks like I'm only going to have the time this trip for a one day trip out of London and, as always, I want to go to seaside- I wonder where it would be best to go...
