Beautiful apartment

Stunning apartment, beautifully decorated and clean throughout and the views are just amazing. Didn't want to go home - could have definitely stayed for longer. The apartment has everything you need and more - the owners have obviously put a lot of thought into making this a home from home and as comfortable as possible for guests. The owners were so friendly, provided lots of local information and the welcome pack was very much appreciated - a really nice touch.

Breathtaking views and experience!

What a lovely pastoral sea view experience we had! The house itself is lovely with emphasis on the smallest details - so homely and cosy :) Jenny and Tim were so kind, warm and helpful. The views from the bedroom and the balcony is priceless. On clear days, you can actually see some French land :) We hope to come back again. Highly recommended!

Return Visit

Calais View is one of the nicest holiday rentals that we have ever stayed in and we were delighted to make a return visit last week. The property is in a great location and the views are spectacular, it is stylish and comfortable with high quality fixtures and fittings, lots of thoughtful touches and every home comfort. Jenny and Tim are excellent hosts; friendly, helpful and approachable but never obtrusive. Highly recommended.

Fantastic

A fantastic place, everything you could want and more. Beautiful location, beautiful apartment and the friendliest hosts you could wish for, nothing is too much trouble and the attention to detail in the apartment is one of the best we have come across. If you are worried about Covid then don’t be, this is the most thorough Covid secure accommodation you could ask for. Thank you so much Tim and Jenny for a fantastic holiday. Jayne and Mark.

Superb stay

Calais View was absolutely perfect. From the moment we booked Jenny and Tim were the perfect hosts, the apartment is superbly located, very tastefully decorated and is immaculate - really cannot recommend it highly enough. The attention to detail on everything from pre-arrival info to new changes that have had to be brought in due to Covid is just incredible. We already can't wait to return!

A break from reality

We decided to take a working break away and base ourselves at the Calais View apartment for a week. What a great place, we took cliff walks, time on the beach, dinners in and out and just sitting back and admiring the view. It was perfect. One of the best locations possible and a very high quality apartment. Jenny and Tim were very good hosts and took extra care to make sure everything was perfect. The internet works very well and easily supported our constant video calls and email demands. We’ll be back as soon as we can!

Most special holiday home on the south coast

What a gem we found in Calais View we are already talking about going back. Immediately we felt at home and relaxed. Jenny & Tim the owners really have thought of everything from those little cooking extras, a lovely welcome pack to those extra special bathroom products so you don't have to worry about anything. We arrived late due to car trouble but Tim still went through everything with us so we felt at home straight away and really welcome. Even though it was February we had a couple of sunny mornings sat on the terrace watching the world (on ferries!) go by and we also had the fun of a couple of storms. Go right and you can walk West to Dover and sit as we did watching the sun go down and the port in action and go left and you get to the lovely Deal (we recommend Wellington's for an all day breakfast). Just a wonderful week away all in all, we are coming back most definitely. Lying in bed listening to the sea and watching the sunrise we already miss, and a drink watching the waves down at The Coastguard pub on the beach.

Lovely apartment with stunning views

We had a most relaxing break in this beautiful apartment. It has the best views we’ve ever had from self catering accommodation in Britain and is without doubt the most luxurious, comfortable and well appointed we’ve ever stayed in. Everything we could have needed and more was provided and Jenny and Tim were so kind. The welcome pack was lovely and such a kind touch. We’d love to return one day, am missing that morning cup of tea in bed looking at the beautiful sea view! Thank you for everything, Jenny and Tim!

A beautifully decorated, tastefully furnished property. Excellently situated,overlooking the bay.

We were greeted, warmly, by the host, Jenny as we arrived. She showed us around her lovely property, explaining how things worked and a little about the area. We loved everything about the property. All the furniturings were high quality and there was everything you could wish for to make your stay enjoyiable. There was a very welcome basket of goodies awaiting us in the kitchen, including wine, bread and biscuits, along with lots of other thoughtful additions, such as binoculars, dvds and a cosy blanket in the living room. We went on a couple of bracing walks following the Saxon Shore path along the cliff tops, stopping for tea and cake in the lighthouse tea shop. Had a very nice meal in St Margaret’s village and one at the Smugglars pub. Look forward to revisiting the property and area again.

Calais View Cottage was excellent

I am single, 70, love the sea and wanted to get away from London for a few nights early in the new year. Calais View Cottage was excellent. The views from the apartment are fabulous. Because everything about the apartment is so good I hesitate to point out that there is a steep and narrow path leading to the apartment and a steep and narrow staircase to the bedroom and bathroom.

The most perfect holiday cottage you can find! Comfortable, beautiful spot and amazing views!

We loved Calais View! It has all you need for a very relaxing and comfortable holiday. The cottage overlooks the coast near Dover and it has amazing views! It is close to nice towns. And just a short drive away from Canterbury. We loved our stay!

Immaculate property, excellent hosts, breathtaking views.

This property is a real home from home, it is beautifully furnished and very well appointed with lots of thoughtful extra touches which make it a really comfortable place to stay. The hosts, Jenny and Tim, are very friendly and helpful. The location is stunning with spectacular views of the English Channel and the White Cliffs of Dover from the patio, sitting room and bedroom. There are several pubs, restaurants, cafes and a convenience store within five to twenty minutes walking distance and there are also lots of places to eat in the surrounding area and Dover or Deal town centres which are both a short drive away.

In nearly thirty years of self-catering this is by far the best property we have ever stayed in.

Fabulous, spotless accommodation with exceptional view. Perfect and thoughtful hosts. Comprehensive welcome pack also much appreciated. Great location for walks, beach-combing, eating and drinking. Parking provision directly opposite the property a definite plus too.
