Capri - New Romney, Kent, England

Capri is a bright and spacious chalet, tucked away at the end of a cul-de-sac in its own private garden. It has views to the rear over fields, and on a clear day you can see Dover's white cliffs! New Romney station, model railway and cafe, with its 15 inch gauge steam railway is a 2 minute walk from the house. The trains run past the garden fence to the side - become 'the railway children' for a week! The enclosed garden has a sunny terraced area, a small area of lawn, and a 'secret garden' under a weeping willow, with a wooden wendy house and a swing. From the garden you have a good view of the trains, railway and engine shed.

The ground floor of the house has a bright and airy feel, with a comfortably furnished sitting room and seating for nine. The sitting room has Sky TV, dvd, video and stereo system, and we provide a small library of videos and dvds for your enjoyment, suitable from small children to adults. Off the sitting room is a conservatory, which is a haven of warmth and sunshine, especially good for breakfasting in on sunny mornings. The conservatory also has roof blinds for those very hot days, and doors out to the garden. The dining room has doors to it from the sitting room and the kitchen, and seats up to 10 people. The kitchen is well equipped for all your needs, and also has a utility room with washing machine and tumble drier. Two of the house's five bedrooms are on the ground floor, making the house suitable for the less able-bodied. One of the ground floor bedrooms has a double bed, and one has two single beds. Both bedrooms have ample clothes storage space. There is also a bathroom on the ground floor, with WC, hand basin, and bath, with electric shower over. The three other bedrooms are on the first floor. One has a large double bed, one has two single beds, and the third has one single bed and one small single bed, suitable for a child. There is also a bathroom on the first floor, with WC, hand basin and a bath.

We have made the house feel like a home for our visitors, and provide a selection of books, games, toys, dvds and videos for your enjoyment. Children are welcome, and to help make your packing easier we provide a travel cot (you will need to bring your own bedding for this), high chair with safety straps, stair gates for top and bottom of stairs, potty, changing mat, socket covers, plastic cups, plates and cutlery. In the kitchen you will find basic condiments and herbs, also tea, coffee and sugar. Please feel free to use these, but please also replace them if you use them up! Bed linen and towels are provided for use within the house for stays of a week or longer.  For weekends and short breaks they are available for a supplement of £50. You will need to bring your own beach towels. We ask you to leave the house in a tidy and reasonable condition, but the cleaning is done for you at the end of your stay.
