Dog Friendly Cottages in Kent

What our customers say about their holidays

  We were delighted with this property.

  Our family group of 8 comprised 3 generations with ages ranging from 27 to 80, plus a dog. The spacious house and garden totally met our expectations and provided comfort and also entertainment for all of us, such as table tennis, pétanque etc. The ever changing colours of the sea, visible from all 4 bedrooms and both living rooms, constantly drew me back. The location is superb. We particularly love a holiday home which has instant access to unspoilt walks and Pentire House did not disappoint. Apart from the spectacular Coastal Path on our doorstep we found plenty of interesting places to visit in the area where dogs were welcome. Some of us left the dog in the care of others one afternoon and went to Walmer Castle. It’s a really beautiful place and if you don’t have a canine companion to consider you should definitely go there. Barnsole Vineyard might not be an obvious destination but all 8 of us plus dog spent a fascinating afternoon there being taken round by Phil, one of the owners. We also ate out a few times and would recommend Victuals & Co in Deal and The Smugglers in St. Margaret’s at Cliffe. We had tasty sausage baguettes for lunch at The Pines in St. Margaret’s too and would certainly recommend their cakes. A second week would have been marvellous - we’ll need to return to be able to visit some of the sites we didn’t get to this time. Sadly some of us have to work!

  A dream house perched on a magical cliff-top location (the online photos really do not do it justice)!

  Our (multi-generation)family all had the most wonderful and unforgettable holiday during the week we spent at Pentire House. We found the house to be furnished to an extremely tasteful and high standard with brand new furnishings and appliances. It was spotlessly clean throughout, with 4 luxurious and spacious bedrooms upstairs and a very well-appointed kitchen and multiple seating areas downstairs. There were stunning sea views from all rooms on both floors. The garden, backing on to a golf course, was huge and beautifully laid out, so both the adults and children in our group had plenty to enjoy and keep themselves busy (e.g. basketball hoop, table-tennis, garden room etc). When we wanted to venture outside the house and its grounds, there was a magnificent coastal footpath on the doorstep, the beach was just a few minutes walk away and plenty of other Kent inland/beach attractions and sights were within the reach of a short car journey. The owners, Mark and Kay, were extremely courteous and very responsive and helpful on any query or issue that we had during our stay. All in all, Pentire House was truly a 5 star-plus experience for us! We look forward to returning soon! (IS and Family)

  We had a lovely time at Pentire House.

  The garden is beautiful with many different spots to sit in and enjoy the views. We loved the kitchen diner and spent most of our time there for the floor to ceiling view of the cliffs and across the channel. The kitchen had everything needed to cook and prepare meals. The welcome basket was a lovely touch and nice treat. Our beds and bedrooms were comfortable and the power showers were fab! There were more amazing views to be had from the bedroom windows too. Plenty of parking for 4 cars. We had 2 cars and had more then enough room. We enjoyed the walks along the cliff top ( you can walk to the Dover Patrol Monument) and into Kingsdown village. Nice little butcher/deli who even gave a treat to our doggy. Pub on the beach has lots of outside seating and is doggy friendly too. The main reason for staying was for the amazing views. And they did not disappoint. Thank you.

  We stayed at Pentire House for a week to catch up with family.

  Kay and Mark have thought of everything to make you feel at home and enjoy your stay. The house is in a stunning location with beautiful views from every room. Well equipped kitchen with everything you need and plenty of space for everyone to relax or help with the cooking. The gardens are beautifully laid out however March was not really the best time to be able to relax outside but still enjoyable looking at all the lovely shrubs and plants. Easy walking from the door in either direction but especially love the walk to St. Margaret's with a refreshment stop in the Coastguard. We did have a couple of days of wind and rain but when the place you are staying in is so warm and comfortable, what could be better than staying indoors playing games and just being with your family. We all loved it and would love to go back again.

  Pentire House is absolutely stunning!

  It’s our second time here as we loved it so much the first time. There is something for everyone to do rain or shine. Completely child friendly house and garden. Dog friendly with fantastic walks along the cliffs or down to the beach. The fixtures and furnishings are to a high quality and it oozes luxury. The views are utterly amazing, my children adore watching the ships and boats with the binoculars (provided) whether it’s raining or a sunny day the views don’t disappoint. The garden is beautiful with lots for all to do, whether it’s reading a book, playing football, hide and seek, rounders, basket ball or having a bbq plus much more. Pentire House is a hidden gem and won’t disappoint. We will be back for sure as it’s just perfect, a real hidden gem.
