Jasmine

Swale's coastal setting makes it a natural draw for seaside breaks, and Jasmine sits on the quieter side of that appeal. This purpose-built lodge occupies the ground floor of Willow Farm, meaning no stairs and the full run of the space to yourself. The layout flows from an open-plan living and dining area through to a galley kitchen equipped for proper cooking—electric oven, induction hob, dishwasher and all the rest. Both bedrooms have zip-and-link beds (request twin configuration if you prefer) and Smart TVs; the master comes with its own shower en-suite, while the second bedroom shares a family bathroom with a bath and separate shower. A sofa bed in the living area adds a sixth sleeping spot when needed.

Essentials are handled: electricity, Wi-Fi, bed linen and towels come as standard. The kitchen has the appliances you need to eat in rather than out every night, and a washing machine plus tumble dryer mean you can pack lighter. Outside, a private garden with seating and a barbecue overlooks green surroundings, and parking for two cars is included. The property is non-smoking. Families and groups of friends both work here, though note that travel cots and highchairs are available for a small fee if you need them.
