Experience something different at this quirky yet beautiful suite at Florence House. Built 200 years ago this suite incorporates a cabin-like extension, is lined with sash windows that overlook our courtyard garden and the magnificent church next door.
Located 3 mins to the beach by foot and within a charming terrace of pastel coloured properties, Florence House stands in a prominent position within the town square and puts all that Herne Bay has to offer on your door step.
This apartment has been lovingly restored to retain as many of its romantic original features as possible and combining the magnificent high ceilings and large windows creates a beautiful light and airy space.
During the day, large sash windows offer flooding light in the space whilst in the evening, a charming chandelier illuminates the space, bringing attention to the oak beams of the vaulted ceiling.
At nightfall, the velvet button backed bed with 1000 pocket sprung medium support mattress, fluffy pillows and crisp professionally laundered linen, will ensure you have a comfortable nights sleep.
The next morning will be heavenly too - Outside the bedroom window we have nesting birds that greet you with bird song and jasmine that wafts through the air. It's easy to forget you're actually in the centre of town as this apartment is very peaceful.
The fully equipped kitchen is perfect for preparing breakfast and cooking your evening meals alike, or later in the evening pouring a glass of wine ready to lay back on the bed to watch the latest movies and tv shows on Netflix, Amazon Prime & Disney Plus which come ready installed on the Smart TV.
After a day at the beach the thermostatic shower provides a powerful shower that is as practical with sandy toes as it is relaxing after a long day. It really is the perfect 'hidey-hole' for your next beach getaway.
Because of Florence House's central location a car is not necessary to see much that Herne Bay has to offer. If however you still decide to bring your car outside there is on street parking which is free for 1 hour between 9am and 6pm Mon-Sat. We can also provide permits to park there all day at a charge of £10 per day but we will require your vehicle's registration number ahead of your visit for the permit to be processed.
Fantastic central location in Herne Bay, overlooking the town square, which regularly hosts events - particularly during the summer time, and on the last Sunday of every month the monthly craft and farmers market. Immediately opposite Florence House on the square you'll find the Herne Bay leisure centre, which has a swimming pool, gym and cinema. Local shops and larger supermarkets are just on your doorstep as are several award winning restaurants, pubs and bars. A short 3 minute walk down our road, and you'll be on the beach and sea front parade.
We are on the bus route into Canterbury which takes approx 35-45mins, or in the other direction Whitstable in 20mins. A 15min walk will take you to the train station, where you can get to London St Pancras in 1 hour and 20mins.
We have a cot available to hire with linen, this is £20 for the first night and £10 for each additional night thereafter.
Pets are allowed providing they are clean, house trained and well behaved. This will however incur an additional £20 fee per stay.

A lovely apartment with everything you could want for a comfortable, peaceful break near the sea. Excellent facilities, TV access to Netflix, Youtube, iPlayer, Disney+ and so on. The self check in was straightforward and without problems. Thank you, Oliver for a memorable stay. We will definitely be making a return visit!
Thank you Glen for a lovely review. I am so pleased you had an enjoyable stay and wish you back anytime! Best wishes, Oliver
This studio is a lovely property in the centre of Herne bay but only 5 mins to the sea front. It has everything you need and is very cozy. The tv facilities are great with guest Netflix, Disney plus and other options. Full kitchen facilities and a wonderful modern bathroom with a rain shower. Host Oliver is on hand if anything needed although we were very happy and would recommend this accommodation to anyone staying in Herne bay.
Thank you so much, Tracy and Clive, for your lovely review! It was a real pleasure having you back again, and I’m so glad you enjoyed your stay in the studio this time. You’re always such wonderful guests, and you’re welcome back anytime — it would be a delight to host you again whenever you’re next in Herne Bay. Warm regards, Oliver
Perfect place to stay in Herne Bay, ideally located in the centre of town and close to all amenities. Studio flat is quiet, being semi detached from the main house, overlooking and with access to the garden. Immaculately presented and containing all the facilities you might need; would certainly stay here again.
Thank you Dave for a lovely review, I am so happy you appreciated the efforts we went into the renovation of the studio! You're welcome any time. Best wishes, Oliver
Lovely stylish, clean and comfortable studio apartment. Great to have all the kitchen amenities. Very easy self check in. Great location. Use of the garden is a lovely perk. Thank you, I will be back
Thank you Miriam for a lovely review. I appreciate you taking the time sharing your experience. You're welcome anytime. Best wishes, Oliver

Hi I’m Oliver and my family and I have been running holiday lets for around 20 years in both England and Spain. I currently offer several beautiful apartments in Herne Bay, right in the centre of the hustle and bustle and I am working on a new addition that we hope to open very soon!
I am a designer by profession however outside of this I am a keen musician; I sing and play guitar and ukulele and enjoy cooking and photography!
My holiday lets are designed to offer the ideal relaxing getaway and I am always available to offer assistance or advice in anyway to make your stay that little more special.
I live 20mins away from the apartment and am always reachable by phone.
