Starboard Light is a stunning contemporary holiday home located on Whitstable’s popular Island Wall. It is just yards from the beach and The Old Neptune pub, one of the few pubs actually sited on a beach. A few minutes’ walk along the seafront takes you to the fishing harbour and popular Harbour Street with its wealth of independent shops, cafes, restaurants and pubs. Steps lead from the street down to the front door, and the large open plan ground floor of the cottage. The sitting room has a wood burner for cooler days, and dining area. The modern kitchen leads to the delightful garden room which offers a second sitting room and is light and bright. French doors open onto the lovely garden with bamboo and palms, a large decked area and two seating areas. Upstairs over two floors are a Kingsize bedroom, a single bedroom and family bathroom, and a twin room on the top floor. Whitstable is a lively coastal town with a friendly sailing club and water sports centre, a thriving arts and creative scene and lots of live music in the pubs and cafes. Further afield are the historic market town of Faversham and the medieval City of Canterbury.

Review
The bathroom could do with a good renovation and the skylight in there is very dusty… closer detail to overall cleanliness of wooden floors upstairs
Excellently positioned for the beach and the town. We were really lucky with the parking but would imagine that it will be a bit of a problem in the summer months. The visit could be improved by having instruction manuals for all the appliances and lighting systems.

Lovely weekend, beautiful house
Third stay in Whitstable and second time using Keepers Cottages. They are the most professional short stay company we have used and can not fault them.
The house is lovely. More than comfortable for 4 people and the dogs enjoyed the garden and open space inside.
Location is perfect for all of the Whitstable hot spots. Minutes walk to the beach and to the high street with all of the shops and restaurants.
Thank you for having us, we will definitely be back

A wonderful place to stay!
We´ve enjoyed the cottage from the minute we walked in. A comfortable, clean, modern home for a perfect vacation. The back yard was stunning, we loved spending time there. Whitstable is such a cute and charming town, we will certanly return! The only issue, which we knew of before booking, was the parking situation. We took care of that problem in advance as we booked a private parking space for the whole week in the neighborhood.
We absolutely loved the Starboard Light!

Delightful house in perfect location
This house is delightful but unfortunately has been sadly neglected in certain areas...the patio window needs replacing, plinths in the kitchen are all loose, shower needs updating, lighting system is far too complicated in the rooms, some blinds are broken (in the garden lounge). When we were there it was baking hot and I can't believe that a house like this doesn't have a fan anywhere?! Also the outside table needs a parasol for baking hot weather! Only two saucepans in the kitchen and no colander! The house needed cleaning properly, all the kitchen cupboards were quite grubby on the fronts. Plinths in the bathroom are loose and grubby, window was impossible to open for ventilation and the skylight window was so difficult to open. The garden needs maintaining too, we felt sorry for the plants in the baking heat and did water the garden. It's a real shame, the house has been beautifully designed but just not maintained to the standard it really deserves - just mending broken stuff, a bit of care and attention and a proper good clean and this house would be perfect!
