Travel back to the era of elegance and relax in this beautiful and spacious apartment at Florence House. Built 200 years ago in the heart of Herne Bay, this apartment combines unforgettable Georgian charm with modern comforts. 
Located only 3 mins to the beach by foot and within a charming terrace of pastel coloured properties, Florence House overlooks the town square from a prominent position 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, floor to ceiling bay windows offer sea glimpses and a gentle warmth in the living room, whilst in the evening, a grand 8 arm chandelier illuminates the living room and brings focus to the original Carrara marble fireplace. 
The master bedroom with its recently refurbished antique French Corbeille bed, provides a very comfortable sleep. With a 1000 pocket sprung medium support mattress, fluffy pillows and crisp professionally laundered linen, you're sure to have a good 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 kitchenette is ideal for preparing breakfast and cooking a simple evening meals alike, or later in the evening pouring a glass of wine ready to sit back and relax on the sofa to watch the latest movies and tv shows on Netflix, Amazon Prime & Disney Plus which come ready installed on the 55" Smart TV.
After a day at the beach the mira shower provides a powerful shower that is as practical with sandy toes as it is relaxing after a long day.
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.
As standard the apartment is ready for two people, but a linen can be provided for the sofa bed can be supplied for a third or fourth person at an additional cost if 3/4 people are selected when making the booking.
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.
The house is currently undergoing some redecoration to the communal areas. This should not impact the enjoyment in your stay.

Grand Suite | Heart of Herne Bay | 300m from beach

We had a lovely stay in the Grand Suite at Florence House.
The accomodation was very clean and nicely decorated. I travelled with my husband and pet cockerpoo and there was everything we needed to make our stay enjoyable.

Everything we needed

Excellent 👌 stay such a lovely apartment.

Perfect for a disabled guest

I can’t praise this apartment enough, it’s lovely and very central to almost everything ( even a Nat West) on the corner !! 
Swimming pool & cinema across the rd, restaurant & bars & kids amusements 10 mins walk along the front.
The flat itself is big, two big rooms both with big fans if it’s hot & cosy if it’s cold.
Little kitchen area which I didn’t use only made tea & drinks for kids.
Big tv on wall which is easy to work.
Parking for 24 hours if you pay & Oliver helps you.
All very nice 
Thank you

Second visit

I stayed with my sister in the ground floor apartment. A charming characterful comfortable place to stay in central Herne Bay. Very welcoming host.

Fab recommended accommodation

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Herne Bay. Oliver's property in Herne Bay is ideally situated for easy access to the seafront, restaurants, cinema and shopping. 
The flat is delightful. Glorious high ceilings and tastefully refurbished to a high standard, it has a squishy sofa, a great TV (with Netflix, Disney+ etc), a spotless bathroom with an excellent shower, and a super-soft bed with crisp linen.
Oliver is friendly and welcoming and his guest brochure offers all sorts of helpful local tips. We enjoyed wonderful beach and country walks in blazing sunshine with blue skies in mid-October, enhanced by the brisk northerly wind!
I can heartily recommend this as a place to stay. We are certainly tempted to return.

Great weekend destination
