“The View” is an apt name for a beach retreat that leads your gaze all the way out to sea… so far that, on a clear day, you can spot the French coastline in the distance.
Pet-friendly and perfectly positioned directly on the boardwalk at Folkestone seafront, enormous windows allow daylight to flood inside, whilst showcasing the most spectacular coastal views.
(So spectacular, in fact, that you may find yourself willing on a storm, just so you can watch it brew and break from the comfort of your plush sofa!)
Inside the two-storey retreat await sleek self-contained facilities, with sumptuous furnishings and accessories that are worthy of a five-star hotel suite. Think designer linens and downy bedding, with fluffy robes and indulgent toiletries for a full-on sensory experience.
Two Smart TV-equipped double bedrooms sleep up to four guests in indulgent comfort, while two underfloor-heated bathrooms mean there’ll be no awkward morning queues.
What else? A friendly concierge is on hand every weekday for advice about things to see and do during your stay, and you’ll also be welcomed with a goodie-stuffed hamper and a bottle of Kent wine.
Perhaps savour a chilled glass or two out on your private sea-view balcony or patio terrace: both ideal spots for long, laughter-fuelled catch-up conversations against the gentle sounds of the sea.

More information
Wander into the communal gardens, where you’ll find comfy seating and children’s play equipment, or straight onto the beach, where you can stretch out your towel and get lost in a good book.
Don’t fancy cooking your own dinner? No problem, since Folkestone’s renowned Rocksalt restaurant is a ridiculously short stroll away! Treat yourselves to a round of freshly-mixed cocktails and fresh, seasonal Kentish seafood… you deserve it.
Folkestone itself is located at the foot of the North Downs, with some magnificent countryside walks to be taken – so if you dream of a holiday that combines coast-and-country, this is it.
If you’ve brought your walking boots (and/or your energetic dog!) take the North Downs Way, which ends at Dover, or the Saxon Shore Way to step back in time, tracing the Kent coast as it was in Roman times.
Of course, there are plenty of places of interest to visit nearby, from the Kent Battle of Britain Museum to shopping-and-coffee-stopping on the iconic Harbour Arm, to keep you nicely occupied until it’s time for sunset-watching back at your luxury retreat.
