Viking Bay is a short walk away, and from there coastal paths lead past chalk cliffs and smaller coves. Broadstairs itself has independent shops, bakeries and cafés lining the streets, while Margate and Ramsgate are within reach for galleries and harbours. The Palace Cinema sits nearby for an evening out.

Pickwick's Place is a terraced cottage built in the 1860s, tucked into a quiet courtyard off the main streets. It has two bedrooms—one with a double bed and the other with two singles—plus a bathroom with shower. The living room centres on a wood burner. Downstairs, the kitchen is equipped for proper cooking, with a hob, oven, dishwasher and microwave. Wi-Fi, heating, electricity, bed linen and towels are all provided. There is on-road parking outside.

The cottage suits small families or groups of four. One pet is welcome. No smoking is permitted inside. Arrival is after 3pm and departure before 11am.

Myself and my friend Sharon spent 2 nights, 3 days in Sandpiper Cottage, Broadstairs, last weekend . 16th August. It was a wonderful week. Great communication from the hosts from the start, easy booking, and easy to find and access. Lots of very useful information was given, including to park on the Esplanade and walk down, 5 minute walk. You can also park right by the cottages, if you have lots to unload. We didn't, so simply walked down from the Esplanade, very close. The cottage was immaculate, pretty, quirky and full of lovely little touches from the hosts. They seemed to have thought of everything. Kitchen was very well equipped, bathrooms and bedrooms spotless and very comfortable beds. It was an absolute delight to stay here and made our mini break even better. The stairs in this cottage are challenging,however we knew that in advance, as it's in the literature online. But we found that added to the character of the place. Sharon and I would highly recommend Sandpiper Cottage and these hosts. Excellent service and big shout out to Ryan for getting us in !. He was a great help. 100 % recommend and we will definitely back. Thank you 😊

My husband and I stayed at Fagin's Den in Broadstairs in April 2025. We had a wonderful time in Beverley and Phil's amazing fisherman's cottage which is full of delightful Dickensian details. There are prints on the walls of various characters from Dickens' novels and the rooms are full of quirky and fascinating objects from the Victorian period. So much thought has gone into making this a home which anyone will love, but if you're a Dickens fan, you will adore! It's a short stroll to the sea front and to the Charles Dickens Museum and there are lots of places to eat a 5 minute walk away. Beverley and Phil also went the extra mile and set up a treasure hunt for us - Dickens themed! - with clues to solve. This led us up and down and all around the cottage, searching through Dickens' novels, weighing a bag of meal in the kitchen, hunting for hidden hideaways. It was great fun! For a holiday home with a difference, you couldn't do better than the fabulous Fagin's Den in charming Broadstairs!

I stayed at Fagins den with my daughters, they had so much fun playing the scavenger hunt and dressing up. Games are provided aswell. It was quiet at night time, we went for a evening walk along the beach that is 3 minutes away. It was beautiful. The beds were comfy and it really felt like we were in fagins den. I would recommend 100% for a little short but very satisfying holiday in beautiful Broadstairs 😍
