About the house

The Olive House is a bright and welcoming Victorian terrace nestled in the historic and thriving coastal town of Deal, Kent.

The house is named after the owners’ years spent living in Italy and the olive tree that graces the rear garden. Sleeping up to six guests across three bedrooms, with part of the rear garden and a prime location just a short, lazy stroll from the shingle beach and within easy walking distance of the quirky town centre, this spacious property provides a delightful base for families and groups of friends seeking an authentic seaside escape on the Kent coast. Dating back to 1900s, instantly recognisable by its beautiful, classic red and yellow patterned brickwork, this characterful property offers a striking and authentic slice of Victorian seaside architecture. Step inside and settle into the bright and inviting sitting room, where you can put your feet up in front of the TV after a day listening to the rhythmic crash of the waves. The heart of the home flows seamlessly into a bright kitchen/diner, thoughtfully equipped with everything you need to curate home-cooked meals, from leisurely breakfasts before a day of exploring to lively evening dinners shared together.

When the weather is favourable, step outside into part of the rear garden, where a lawn, patio and furniture create an inviting setting for dining outdoors or enjoying a drink in the fresh air. When the day draws to a close, choose from three bedrooms, comprising one super king, a double and twin beds, offering flexible sleeping arrangements for families and friends.

There is a TV in each of the bedrooms, so there is no squabbling over the remote. A bright ground-floor bathroom with a bath and overhead shower provides the ultimate choice between a quick, refreshing rinse or a long, leisurely soak after a day spent exploring the serene Kent coastline. With Deal's independent shops, lively pubs, and the iconic shingle beach all just a stone's throw away, you can completely abandon the car and discover the town’s atmospheric, winding streets entirely on foot.

Wander through the town’s conservation area, stop for something to eat at one of its award-winning restaurants or cafés, and make your way down to the seafront and pier to enjoy the coastal surroundings. History enthusiasts can explore Deal Castle, an impressive fortress dating from the reign of Henry VIII, before continuing along the coast to Walmer Castle and its gardens. Alternatively, follow the cycle route towards Kingsdown, a pretty coastal village from which you can take in views across the Channel. Golfers are also well catered for, with renowned courses including Royal Cinque Ports, Royal St George's and Kingsdown within the surrounding area. For another history-filled day out, venture to Dover and discover the imposing Dover Castle, spectacularly positioned above the famous White Cliffs. Whether you spend your break discovering Kent's maritime heritage, wandering beside the sea, cycling along the coast or simply making the most of the beach, The Olive House, in Deal is a splendid base for your next coastal getaway.
