"Very friendly welcoming hotel. Very convenient for walks, a very comfortable Tankerton is lovely and ita only an easy 20 mins walk to Whitstable town, but local shops nearby and sea front iceceam and teas on the seafront. Very good hotel for dogs Car parking in October was fine close to hotel on beach front road and free. I imagine that parking in peak season is difficult but probably still easier than parking in Whitstable."

"We absolutely loved our stay at the Honey Pod. Communication and instructions before arrival were wonderful and made everything so easy. The space itself is compact but has everything you need — a cozy kitchen/lounge area, comfortable bedroom, and clean bathroom. The wood burner hot tub in the garden was such a treat, perfect for relaxing under the stars. It’s beautifully secluded and feels like you’re tucked away in the middle of nowhere — peaceful, quiet, and magical. Highly recommend for anyone looking to unwind and escape! "
