Secluded in a historic Kent village near Folkestone, La Vue is a converted Airstream that more than lives up to its name… since on a clear day, you can see all the way across the Channel from the magnificent clifftop viewing deck!
In fact, there’ll be no end to the delights you can feast your eyes upon from this truly glorious position, including Folkestone’s renowned Harbour Arm, the incredible Romney Marsh, Dungeness Power Station, and of course, a wide array of boats gliding across the shimmering water.
(Yes, you’ll have Wi-Fi and a Smart TV, but we wouldn’t be surprised if they remained unused all holiday long!)
Make the most of your precious time in Great Outdoors by heading to your dedicated al fresco kitchen space for a scenic supper. Fire up the barbecue grill, pop open your complimentary bottle of bubbles, and raise a toast to the blazing sun as it melts beautifully into the horizon.
If the evening weather turns chilly, simply head inside and light the woodburning stove to feel ridiculously cosy (there’s electric heating, too). Here you’ll find the all-important kettle and toaster, relaxed-yet-cheerful décor, and a downy kingsize bed to aid a snuggly night’s sleep.
What about bathroom facilities? Freshen up in the large, piping hot water shower, privately housed in a brick outbuilding just a short stroll away.
Enjoy a mug of fresh coffee out on the clifftop deck, as you mull over whether you’re able to tear yourselves away from La Vue! If you can, you could choose to get up close and personal with the cliffs by walking along them to Folkestone.

More information
When you get there, claim your reward by stretching out your beach towels on Sunny Sands, a dreamy light-sand beach with Victorian arches, or head for Warren beach to enjoy an old-fashioned tub of cockles.
You’ll find Folkestone’s historic harbour strewn with charming restaurants, cafés, and a tempting ice-cream shop (as everybody knows, if you eat ice-cream at the seaside it contains zero calories!)
The renowned Rocksalt fish restaurant and wine bar is here too; dramatically cantilevered over the harbour for the most magnificent views – ideal if you’re celebrating something special.
Soak up the abundant wartime history to be discovered along the Dover to Folkestone coast, or simply weave your way in and out of the quirky independent shops and galleries that adorn the creative quarter. If you’re in the mood to explore further afield, you could even head for neighbouring Hythe for even more immersive ways to while away some time.
Just don’t forget to return to La Vue before the sun sets… because you really won’t want to miss a single moment.
Things to note
Small, well-behaved pets may be considered on request, for an additional fee. The property is very close to the cliff edge, so appropriate care must be taken at all times.
