Dexter’s House
Dexter's House is a much loved family holiday home nestled in the heart of the conservation area of the pretty Georgian town of Deal. You couldn't ask for a better location! In fact, you can even see a glimpse of the sea from the bedroom window. Tastefully decorated throughout with everything you will need for a comfortable stay, the house has a lovely family friendly, relaxed atmosphere and your four-legged friend is also welcome. The ground floor has a large, inviting sitting room with a wood burner and a kitchen/dining area with doors out to a lovely sunny courtyard garden, perfect for fish and chips after a day at the beach! Upstairs are three beautiful bedrooms, one with an en-suite and a family bathroom.
The house is perfectly positioned between Deal High Street with its artisan food shops, cafés, pubs and restaurants, and is also a hop, skip and a jump from the lovely long seafront promenade and pier. For guests who enjoy country walks and historic sites, there’s plenty of choice nearby, including both Deal and Walmer castles, and a lovely coastal walk to Kingsdown and St Margaret’s Bay. Golfers are spoilt for choice with the local clubs of Royal Cinque Ports and Walmer & Kingsdown golf clubs. Whilst the championship courses of Royal St George’s, and Princes are a short drive away.?

Middle Street is the heart of Deal's Conservation area and runs parallel with the seafront so you are literally a minutes walk away from the beach, you have sea views from the third floor bedrooms. It also is very conveniently located with the main town centre a few minutes walk away.
Deal is a unique place, where coast meets country, country meets the town and England meets the Continent. Whatever the time of year, it's a great spot to savour some quality time and glimpse life from a bygone era.

For generations, artists, designers, writers and musicians have been inspired by the beautiful coastline, chalk cliffs, stunning countryside, smugglers' alleyways, historical heritage and nautical charisma. There's an energetic arts scene with a host of independent galleries, exhibitions and events, whatever the time of year, there's always something exciting happening.
