Owls Croft is a well-situated, comfortable cottage in Broadstairs, highly praised for its peaceful location near the coast and dog-friendly amenities. Guests appreciate the private, enclosed garden and easy access to scenic walks and local attractions. Many find the property cosy and well-equipped, making it ideal for both short breaks and longer stays. While most reviews are positive, some guests have noted issues with cleanliness and occasional maintenance, but the overall experience remains enjoyable for the majority of visitors.

Cleanliness receives mixed feedback. Several guests found the property clean and well-maintained, but a notable number reported issues such as dusty cupboards, dirty kitchen appliances, pet hair, and insufficient deep cleaning. These recurring concerns have impacted the overall perception of cleanliness.

The location is consistently praised, with guests highlighting its proximity to the beach, coastal walks, and both Broadstairs and Ramsgate. The quiet setting and dog-friendly environment are frequently mentioned as standout features.

Comfort is a strong point, with many guests describing the cottage as cosy, warm, and homely. The beds and living spaces are often noted as comfortable, contributing to a relaxing stay.

Facilities are generally well-regarded, with guests appreciating the well-equipped kitchen, enclosed garden, and parking. Some minor issues with maintenance (e.g., heating, light bulbs, boiler) and kitchen equipment were mentioned, but these did not significantly detract from most stays.

Some guests mentioned small welcome gifts such as milk, coffee, and biscuits, though opinions on their adequacy varied. It should be noted that such gifts are not guaranteed. The lack of an information book was noted by one guest.

    Location was brilliant, the bungalow had everything we needed, and if we had a dog, it would have been very safe in the lovely size garden

    This was my second stay at Owls Croft. What I really like about it is it's quiet location, and having an "adventurous" dog, you can pull up, close the gates behind you and open all of the car doors without having to worry where he is and what he's doing. What I didn't like this time was the cleanliness, or lack of it. I suspect that the property is cleaned between guests, but not nearly thoroughly enough. Without overstating things, we felt the need to wipe the fridge out, wipe the exterior of the kitchen cupboard doors, wipe the dust of the bedside table and chest of drawers, get rid of some of the cobwebs and moths from the bedroom, rinse the human hair from the bath and put our own sanitary bin liners in some of the bins. The worst aspect though, was the amount of hair on the carpets. Rubbing my rubber slipper sole over the carpet quickly produced a hairball the size of a human wig, causing my poor wife to gag! The pillows also had a peculiar smell! If the cleanliness improves I'd love to return. so I'll be keeping my eye of future reviews.

    lovely bungalow could do with a few extra things and a bit more cleaning stuff but overall very nice oven on top not very clean.
