Dexter's House is a much loved family holiday home nestled in the heart of the conservation area of the pretty Georgian town of Deal. You couldn't ask for a better location! In fact, you can even see a glimpse of the sea from the bedroom window. Tastefully decorated throughout with everything you will need for a comfortable stay, the house has a lovely family friendly, relaxed atmosphere and your four-legged friend is also welcome. The ground floor has a large, inviting sitting room with a wood burner and a kitchen/dining area with doors out to a lovely sunny courtyard garden, perfect for fish and chips after a day at the beach! Upstairs are three beautiful bedrooms, one with an en-suite and a family bathroom. The house is perfectly positioned between Deal High Street with its artisan food shops, cafés, pubs and restaurants, and is also a hop, skip and a jump from the lovely long seafront promenade and pier. For guests who enjoy country walks and historic sites, there’s plenty of choice nearby, including both Deal and Walmer castles, and a lovely coastal walk to Kingsdown and St Margaret’s Bay. Golfers are spoilt for choice with the local clubs of Royal Cinque Ports and Walmer & Kingsdown golf clubs. Whilst the championship courses of Royal St George’s, and Princes are a short drive away.​

A excellent cottage in a superb location.

A superb cottage. Very well location 50 mtrs. from the seafront. Extremely well appointed and would highly recommend.

Just one small point. A nonslip mat in the bath would be useful.

Thank you for a wonderful stay.

Yet another stay with the delightful Keepers Cottages (10th one!). This time my family stayed in Dexter's House. In the pretty conservation area in Middle Street. It is 2 seconds to the High St and the beach. We parked our car about a 5 minute walk away and left it there all week as we didn't need a car. The house is really practical for a stay cation with everything you need. We took our dog too which worked really well as we were able to pop up to the seafront for the morning walks. Keepers Cottages are by far the best agent we have used, the team are so helpful and friendly. They let us have an early check in and a late check out to make the holiday even more comfortable.The house was immaculate and spotlessly clean. I would like to say a big thank you to Beata and Amy for coming to my rescue when I locked myself out! If you are looking for a holiday in Deal, go to Keepers. We have already booked our trip for October half term! Thank you as always

Dexter's Cottage is full of character and beautifully decorated throughout. It is well equipped with modern appliances.
The stairs are steep but plenty of bannisters are provided. It is positioned between the High Street and the coast.

Firstly thank you, we had a great stay! What a charming house and perfect location. Deal is a spectacular place and so friendly!
Only constructive comments are: summer weight duvets are needed for summer. Non slip bath mate for the bathrooms.
Thank you!

This was our second stay at Dexters cottage. We just had to return, as it has all the home comforts , cosy , clean , tidy and right in the heart of the conservation area. A very short walk to the beach ( you can see the sea from the top bedroom window) and you are just around the corner from some lovely boutiques, independent coffee shops, grocery shops and trendy bars and restaurants. Keeper’s cottages are on hand if you require them which is a bonus . A lovely restful Easter break .
We Will definitely be returning.

Dexter’s House is perfectly located a stone’s throw from both the sea and the market square. Cosy, exceptionally well-equipped and decorated, it is homely and comfortable.
We were sad to leave.

Return visit was as perfect as the 1st. Location is ideal as it's close to town and local amenities. The property is comfortably furnished, and suits the family needs.

Fabulous cottage , home from home. Great location, you can even see the sea from the top bedroom.
A welcome pack would have been nice and extra hand towels for hair washing. The towels and a spare key ( which I requested) were fulfilled upon request.
Would definitely return to Dexters cottage.

We’ve stayed here before in this old quirky house in the middle of Deals conservation area. Wonderful location, warm and comfortable with three good sized bedrooms. Very steep stairs as a lot of this aged properties in Deal have.
Suffice to say we’ve already booked to return for another long weekend in the New Year.

The house was in a great location and was clean and comfortable.
The only downside was that there was very loud building work being done a few doors along that went on for hours each day. Luckily we had good weather and went out each day, if we hadn’t it would have been a problem.

We really felt lucky to have found this property. Location is perfect. Dreamy high st just a minutes walk away. Cosy pubs and restaurants near by. Middle street fish and chip shop - amazing ! Get there early to avoid que ! Love the feel of the old streets and walked them all. Have some serious door envy ! Inside of the property is very well maintained, and the most comfortable bed (other than my own ) that we have ever slept in. Wish we had booked two weeks. Did not want to leave

A lovely few days relaxing in Deal in 119 Middle Street. The beds are comfy, the bathrooms clean and the kitchen well equipped. I wouldn't recommend for the less nimble or little ones you have to watch because of the stairs. The stairs are steep and uneven as you would expect from a house of this age which was fine for us (50) with teenagers. There are lots of things to hang on to up and down the stairs, but it takes a bit of concentration. I also think a coffee machine in this day and age is a nice touch. I always take my small nespresso and pods but a lot of rental places have them now. Good information on the surrounding areas. Weather was sunny if not a bit chilly but lovely to be away from our own four walls.
