Ivy House by Keepers Cottages

A warm welcome awaits you at Ivy House, an impressive Grade II listed Georgian house in the centre of Deal. Lovingly restored and tastefully furnished by the owners, this detached four bedroom home has been transformed into a delightful home away from home. On the ground floor are two reception rooms, one of which has a log burner and a Smart TV, perfect for cosy evenings in watching a film together. The kitchen has been well-equipped with all you need to cook meals as a family.
