Perfect family holiday close to the beach
Our family had a lovely holiday at The George. Just a few minutes walk to the beach, perfect for going for a quick dip in the sea. Great living space for the family with a well equipped kitchen. Really like the seclusion from the road and the drive with lots of parking space. Our dog Rosie enjoyed lying out on the patio. Would happily stay here again.

Perfect for family holiday.
Comfortable rooms and lovely light open plan space. Plenty of room for our family with a toddler and dog. Secluded garden with plenty of outdoor furniture. Loved the fairy lights. Close to shore but a fair walk into Deal Town ( too far for our elderly relative). great base for exploring the area.

Great mid week break
Very Spacious property with comfortable beds and all mod cons.
Large outdoor areas ensuring you can always be in the sun
WIFI good.
5 mins walk to seafront or a pub & a 20 minute walk into deal or walmer train station
A couple of minor issues addressed promptly by owner.
A lovely modern house in a quiet suburban area. Very much a home-from-home feel, we thoroughly enjoyed our weekend stay at The George. The house was well equipped, clean and spacious. Highly recommend the house and Deal.

Excellent house for families
A great holiday home for young families. Beach and plenty of castles- what more could you want? The property is spacious, well equipped, with excellent outdoor playthings for the under 10s. Secure garden too, which is a bonus. We were blessed with good weather so the bifold doors were very much appreciated.

Wonderful family stay in Deal
We spent a lovely stay (10 days) in a spacious, clean, tidy, full equipped house.
We have appreciated the huge kitchen, the comfy heating, the clean bathrooms, the easy parking, the big TV screen.
Unfortunately the weather wasn't good enough to stay outdoors in the garden but everything looks promising.
Location was perfect, quiet, but not too far from the sea and Deal center was reachable within half an hour by foot.
And cherry on the cake the welcome pack with local products was delicious.

Family time together
With a daughter and young family living in Holland the south coast is a great place to meet up.
The position is perfect, easy walk into Deal, the garden proved to be a lovely place for a 3 and 5year old to let off steam and it was safe for our dog.
Parking for our 2 cars, enough bathrooms for 4 adults and 2 children, a table large enough to seat us all, not only to eat but also to play games (more bonding time), added to this the sun shone…….

Lovely house
We had a great time and the house was lovely and much more spacious than it seemed in the photos. Really well positioned for both Thanet locations and places like Folkestone too. Our 5 year old loved the climbing frame and swing in the cottage. It could just have benefitted from more storage or surfaces in the bedrooms - a small dressing table and mirror would have been really helpful and easily fitted.

Excellent Location - Perfect for group getaway of any age
We have a wonderful girls weekend at the George - there were 7 adults and we had more than enough room and facilities for us. The house is also really well equipped for guests of all ages, and would be great for children as well. It was a glorious weekend weather wise, and the garden was perfect for relaxing in, and the play frame is a great touch for younger guests.
Location wise its perfect - less than a 5 minute walk to the beach and also close to a few shops for picking up supplies. There is also plenty of parking space, and the whole property is fully secured by a security gate.
The only really minor negative would be that the fridge is quite small for a property that hosts 8 people, so would perhaps recommend an extra/larger one. Other than that, our stay was a 10/10 experience! And the team at Keepers Cottages were fabulous in the lead up in assisting with questions and recommendations. I would highly recommend this property for a group stay in Deal.

A week at The George
We found The George to be exactly as described. It provided a comfortable and convenient base from which to enjoy our holiday.
Tucked in on a street off the Dover Road it was quiet whist also handily placed to drive or walk to/from.
We travelled to & from Margate by train and walked the coastal path to Sandwich, returning by bus.
There is a charming cafe , "The Corner" nearby that serves excellent breakfasts, brunches & lunches. Deal itself is well-served by a wide variety of places to eat. We would recommend "Soul Chef Kitchen" (in the Port Arms) for authentic Jamaican food and "Engel's Paradise" for something totally different (terrific Polish food served in an unlikely setting). The team at Keepers Cottages were a pleasure to deal with.

Go with the flow
We loved the 'flow' here - the open-plan layout of the ground floor was especially good for socialising, with the large kitchen leading on to the dining/living area and the enclosed garden. The kitchen was well stocked, with everything in a good condition (except the BBQ which disappointingly was too rusty to use). We did run up against a lack of fridge space and wished there was a second fridge. There were a few other minor niggles such as lack of shelf space in the bathroom/shower, lack of information about use of gadgets/controls and the lack of a doorbell outside the electric gates, which we needed for a delivery. However Keepers Cottages responded quickly and efficiently to our calls. As well as being near the beach, the location is good for buses, if needed, into Deal and elsewhere. Having a downstairs bedroom is helpful for the less mobile. Overall The George is a lovely place for a holiday stay.
Lovely modern home in quiet location and an easy walk to the beach and Deal.
We were between 1 and 6 people dwpending on the day

Could be an excellent house
Air conditioning needed upstairs as the bedrooms were unbearably hot to sleep in in the hot days, as the windows only opened a small amount.
The sofa needs replacing as the overlarge seat cushions were all shapes as if jumped on for 6 months, and the 30cm back cushions should be zipped in place to the sofa but all zips were broken so just sagged down
Most of the glazing of the crockery is cracked.
The shower head in the bathroom only delivered a jet wash type spray or a thin deluge.
If the above items are attended to we would highly recommend it
