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 Margate area

The harbour town of Ramsgate, with its lively marina and ferry port is 5 miles away, whilst ever popular Broadstairs is only 4 miles away. The whole Thanet coastline has miles of sandy beaches and dramatic cliff top walks for you to explore.

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.

For the more active, the scenic Viking Coastal Trail is a 27 mile-long route or six shorter themed routes for cycling or walking. Bike hire is available locally.

Sea View Holiday Apartment guests also get automatic membership to Walkers Friend for the duration of their stay with us for free guided tours and more walks

There are several golf courses in the area, so bring your clubs.

Watersports are very popular and jet skiing, surfing, boat trips and fishing are all readily available.
Margate has direct rail links to London so you might want to head into the city to catch some West End Theatre and shopping or visit the famous London Landmarks. London is approximate 90 mins away by train - Train timetables & information on 08457 484950.

If travelling a little further afield is for you, Trans Europa Car Ferries operate 4 sailings a day to Ostende in Belgium from Ramsgate Harbour. Great for a day trip to Europe, maybe stock up in time for Christmas too. Ferry If you plan to travel over to Belgium during your stay, don't forget your passport.

What's on in Kent

A full events diary means there is always something to do and a lot of it is free! Join in a ceilidh during Broadstairs Folk Week, marvel at the speed of the water skiers at Ramsgate's new waterskiing Championship or relax in Margate’s piazza whilst listening to top quality jazz bands. Even out of the main summer season there are exciting events like the Big Sky Festival of Motor Sports – a great excuse for a weekend away.

In addition to this there are art galleries to explore, theatres where you can see wonderfully entertaining productions and up-to-the-minute cinemas showing the latest releases – so much choice.

“Fine views and fantastic sun sets from Paragon Court” A spacious flat with good sea views from all windows where we have just spent 2 very nice weeks. Very comfortable bed in a large and airy bedroom. The kitchen contained a very nice set of good quality crockery with enough pieces to set the large dining table fully. The set also contained tureens for cooking or serving and a very nice little sauce jug and a serving platter. The Turner gallery can just be seen from the windows and is only a short walk along the seaside. Ramsgate and Broadstairs by bus with the stop only 5 minutes walk away, or 10 minutes walk to the bus station to take the bus to Canterbury. Dover is not a long drive and Sandwich and Deal are even closer. A 15 minute drive will take you to Quex barn near Birchington, a farm shop and cafe. They have a lovely fish counter as does Eddie Gilberts in Ramsgate. In Margate try the bargain Haddock and chips at Petes Fish Factory, only £2.95. The owner of the property is very helpful as are the housekeepers. We had 2 domestic problems which were resovled quickly, one mended and one replaced.

“Awesome views!” I was dubious when my friend suggested a long girly weekend in Margate but we had a great time. The apartment was huge and had everything we needed to cook some delicious dinners... and it was close... more

“See the sea!” This place is genuinely lovely - really massive with great original features. I stayed with 3 friends, but the apartment is so large, it could easily accommodate more. The whole flat is fully stocked with everything you could ask for and is decorated to a really high standard. It's within spitting distance of a gorgeous, sandy beach which doesn't get as crowded as the Margate main sands (although they're also less than 5 minutes away, as is the Turner Centre and the old town with all the lovely cafes and bars). The ladies who maintain the flat are also amazing and made the flat toasty warm for our arrival. I would definitely come and stay again.

“Relaxing” Lovely clean apartment with period features and mod cons. The beauty for us was being near the sea, and although we came during the snow period, it did not stop us taking walks and exploring. The Kitchen could do with a few more utensils, and the building work at the back spoils the view from the twin room. However Aldi, Tesco, Sainsbury's etc all within easy reach and local tourist attractions well worth visiting. We definately all hope to come back. Esme, Sally and Bev were all very helpful indeed, regards Ram Family London.

“We would stay again” This apartment was lovely with all its period features in tact but with the added benifit of modernday heating which we needed as we had a lot of snow when we stayed but it did not deter us from walking on the beach and paddling in our wellies. the place was spacious and well equipt we would stay again if we came back to margate.
