This apartment doesn’t just have sea views, it has spectacular sea views! The large picture windows in the open plan sitting room of this lovely apartment offer amazing 180 degree views out across the English channel and on a clear day you can see France.

Sea View apartment is on the top of the cliffs in the elegant Leas area of Folkestone. Pretty manicured gardens stretch the length of this long promenade with many pedestrian access points leading down to the seafront. A pleasant walk brings you to the Creative Quarter with many art galleries, boutique shops and craft stores, and the popular Harbour Arm.

The apartment is on the second floor of a stylish Grade II listed mansion block and is large and spacious with open plan living space, a well equipped kitchen which also has the same sea views, two comfortable bedrooms and shower room. The building also has a lift.

Folkestone is a thriving coastal town, with a long maritime history. The harbour arm has been transformed into a tourist hotspot with cafes, a champagne bar and other great food outlets. The harbour itself is home to seafood stalls and an excellent seafood restaurant with sea views. And of course, there is the long golden sandy beach and rock pools to enjoy to the east side of the harbour and shingle beaches located to the west. With the mainline station only a 10-minute walk away why not leave the car at home and have a truly relaxing stay.

Truly, a place with The View

We are very pleased to have stayed in Sea View. It proved to be an excellent base for visiting Folkestone in the low season. Everything worked and was quite easy to understand. Heating easy to control once one had fathomed out that each room has independent controls.
At our age low beds can be a challenge but otherwise, comfortable for us.
Good restaurants very close by.
Two minor points, the views are superb, even those outside of the bedroom windows looking out over Autumn trees and well maintained elegant houses, but it would have been helpful if we could have been forewarned that there was scaffolding outside part of the kitchen window which might have given rise to privacy issues, but it didn't disrupt the view. The other small point is just a suggestion but it would help keep the loo 's' bend spotless if strong bleach was used and left overnight to have full effect on some evidence of lime scale. Nevertheless, the bathroom is of a high standard and accessible..
Would we stay again, indeed very much so.
Top notch!
