The South East England / Kent region
As the first seaside resort in the country, Margate has drawn visitors ever since the 1730s. The 700 year old harbour had been extensively used by the sailing hoys which regularly plied their trade from London. However, a new cargo inundated the town in the 18th century when boatloads of holiday makers came to try out Benjamin Beale's wonderful, new innovation. A local inventor, he patented a bathing machine which allowed for therapeutic and modest bathing. Little, wooden huts were pulled into the sea and the bather could then descend into the water covered by a canvas. The introduction in 1814 of 'Steam Yachts' caused rapid expansion which continued throughout the 19th century. The wooden jetty was constructed in 1824 and the famous iron jetty in 1855 which allowed visitors to disembark from the visiting steam packs.
Today Margate is still a thriving seaside town, recovering from the mass exodus of package holidays and still retains the traditional British holiday atmosphere. There is plenty to see and do, from good restaurants to beach entertainments including everything from traditional Donkey rides to water sports, Margate has something for everyone

The Winter Gardens are our neighbours and host year round live entertainments to suit the entire family. To see more of the area, from April to September an open-top bus tour operates from a stop outside the apartments, covering the whole Thanet area. A full tour takes about 1 1/2 hours, but you can 'hop-on/hop-off' throughout the day on the same ticket.

Guestbook for Temraire Court
We will definitely bear both apartments in mind for future sea-side breaks (and tell our friends about them) thus avoiding the long drive down to the southwest in order to enjoy the sea!.
We had a really lovely time in Paragon Court and Temeraire Court - they were both so comfortable, beautifully positioned and well equipped.
Laura and I would love to thank you very much for letting us stay at Temeraire court this past week. It was everything and more than we had imagined. The location and the view was amazing, sometimes it was almost impossible to leave the apartment because we were so drawn to its homeliness
