Flint House, Kingsdown
Welcome to Flint House, a truly special holiday home in the sought-after location of Kingsdown. This coastal home has been furnished to a very high standard with a homely and coastal feel to match its location. The vaulted ceilings and open plan living areas add to the sense of space for families and friends to enjoy. French doors lead into a pretty walled garden providing a sunny sheltered place to relax. Some rooms have sea views looking out towards St Margaret's Bay and the White Cliffs and the beach is only a few hundred yards away. You can bring your four-legged friend with you too. Upstairs are two Kingsize bedrooms, both ensuite and the snug on the ground floor can be converted into a private bedroom with a single sofa bed and a ground floor shower room. Located on a pebble road, which leads directly to the beach, Flint House lies amongst a pretty row of cottages. The house would suit couples, families or a group of friends looking for a seaside getaway. There are two pubs very close by, The Zetland Arms and The Rising Sun and the pretty village of Kingsdown is only a short walk away. The vibrant town of Deal is approximately two miles away. For those wishing to cycle or walk, there is a beautiful coastal cycle and walking path that runs along the entire beach-front and takes you to Walmer Castle, quiet beaches and into the heart of Deal.

Amazing place to stay in a brilliant location

Lovely stay
Comfortable bright house in a quiet street leading to the beach. Lovely furnishings and spaces. Would go back
Flint Cottage is a beautiful property decorated with touches of the old and modern and had everything we needed. Short walk to a lovely pebble beach with a pub looking out over the ocean. The little back garden was perfect for sitting out in the evening and listening to the waves. We really enjoyed our stay.

Beautiful old flint house with peaceful courtyard and modern comforts
We loved staying at this beautiful place. Moments from the beach, private and quiet but with sea views and close to pubs. Large table for family dining. Comfortable lounge area in case of rain. Lots of bathrooms and a kitchen with a great stove. The house surrounds a calm courtyard, perfect for sitting with morning coffee. We’ll definitely be back.

The perfect retreat!
We decided to book a few days away last minute and could not have been more pleased with Flint House and Amy was so helpful managing our booking- so a very big thank you to Keepers Cottages.
The house is perfect - such attention to detail and everything you need. Moments away from the beach with the Zetland Arms looking over the water. A lovely walk along the beach path to Deal is a perfect weekend jaunt - rewarded by fish and chips - and a game of cluedo by the log fire on our return - what’s not to love ! Wish we could have stayed longer !

Fabulous Stay at Flint House!
We had an absolutely wonderful stay at flint house! The house is gorgeous and super warm and comfortable. We loved the style and design of the house and thought it made it extra special. Perfect location as well with a fab pub nearby and views of the beach.
It was fully stocked with everything needed which was really helpful especially for a long weekend when you don’t want to bring along things like hand soaps, washing up liquid, etc.
There were also thoughtful touches from Keepers Cottages on arrival like some local crisps and biscuits and a small carton of milk for making tea and some juice.
We would love to come back and stay again in future! Thank you!

Great House
The house has a lovely feel to it, it’s situated in a great location only a few hundred yards from the beach. The interior is a mix of modern and old, it’s simple tasteful decor is very appealing. The beds are comfortable and it has well appointed bathrooms in both rooms with an extra shower room on the ground floor.
The lane down from the main road has a very large pothole at the top which could do with some attention and the garden is slightly neglected, which on first impressions isn’t ideal. (We did some weeding, whilst we were there)!
These were minor things, and did not hinder our enjoyment. Overall we had a lovely time and would definitely recommend Flint House.

Perfect Christmas Cottage
I loved Flint House. It is in a wonderful location and the design of the house is very special and thoughtfully done. It was cosy whatever the weather, and the wood burners were so nice to curl up in front of. And having a sea view was a lvoely bonus.
The water was hot, the beds and furniture comfortable, the seating and crockery generously provided. My only minor gripe and it is the only one is with all the equipment in the kichen cupboards there was very little space to store the food! But everthing else was just as I would want.
I loved that a Christmas tree was provided and I felt so at home in Flint House and everyone who visited loved it too.
I honestly can't wait to go back

Lots of pros and cons
Flint House is very near the sea in Kingsdown. The property details refer to sea views but they do not mention traffic noise. The house is on a corner where the road goes round a bend annd then up or down a hill. There is traffic noise from the cars accelerating up the hill or braking to come down the hill.
The house has a fabulous sitting room however the kitchen is dark and dingy.
The garden is pretty but not the sort you would spend any time in - its dark, shady and the garden furniture is substandard.
The style of the house is arty but generally dark. I would prefer a coastal house to be bright and coastal in theme.
