We have always loved this cottage and, if we could take it with us on our move to Northern Ireland, we would. It is an incredibly special place with a wonderful character and, whether it is ‘dressed overall’ for Christmas or bathed in summer sunshine, the place is a home for all seasons. We love the fact you can wander up to the Glen for an interesting walk or enjoy a day on the beach with family and friends. Walmer has some local shops, bars and restaurants as well as the bandstand and Downs Sailing Clubhouse along the Strand. The fast train from Walmer station can whisk you to London in under an hour and 20 minutes while it is not far only a short drive to Dover and Folkestone for trips to the Continent. Deal is close by with its plethora of quaint streets, period properties, excellent restaurants including the Dining Club, The Blue Pelican and Little Harriet’s tea rooms. There are also a raft of attractive independent shops as well as the Saturday market and the seafront with its historic pier. Golfing enthusiasts can enjoy their game at the Kingsdown and Walmer and the Royal Cinque Ports golf clubs and if you want to go slightly further afield there are also the championship courses at Sandwich. As far as education is concerned there are very good primary schools in the area, including Warden House, rated Outstanding by Ofsted, while a wide variety of excellent grammar and private schools are available in the nearby towns.   *The Glen is a former chalk quarry in the grounds of Walmer Castle and was originally created by William Pitt the Younger and his niece Lady Hester Stanhope between 1802 and 1806 and was resurrected in 2019 and includes woodland walks, interesting plants and bird wood carvings.

We fell in love with the house the minute we walked into the lovely large living space some 39 years ago and have enjoyed living in this lovely family home ever since. While we have been here we have modernised the whole place including recently updating the bathrooms and kitchen. It will be a real wrench to leave and we will cherish the memories of our time here but we feel it is time to downsize. Kingsdown is a charming fishing village with a golf club, a long seafront, a general store, post office, butcher/deli and three pubs including the dog friendly Zetland Arms as well as the Kings Arms with its speciality nights. You can drive or cycle along the lower road parallel to the seafront to Upper and Lower Walmer with shops and restaurants along the Strand but, being close to the countryside, we have the best of all worlds. The mainline station at Walmer, with its high speed train that can whisk you to London in an hour and 20 minutes, is particularly useful for commuters or if you want a day out in Town. Dover and the Channel Tunnel are within easy reach for a trip to the Continent, while the charming seaside town of Deal is quite close by with its wonderful shops, seafront, eateries and Saturday market. If you feel energetic, the Tides swimming pool complex is not far away while, for golfing aficionadas, as well as the Kingsdown and Walmer golf club, Deal includes the Royal Cinque Ports club but, if you want to go slightly further afield, there is also the championship courses in Sandwich. If sailing is your interest there is the Downs Sailing Club with its clubhouse along the Strand in Walmer. There are a number of good primary schools in the area including the Outstanding Kingsdown and Ringwould and Warden House in Deal, while Dover, Canterbury and Sandwich offer excellent grammar school facilities with top class private schools in Dover, Canterbury and Ramsgate.

Set along the protected Heritage Coastline and just moments from one of the Island’s most dramatic sandy beaches, this exceptional four bedroom detached residence offers a rare opportunity to embrace coastal living at its finest.

Whether basking in summer sunshine or watching winter waves crash against the cliffs, the outlook is nothing short of spectacular. Set within approximately 0.52 acres, the grounds are both generous and enchanting. The main garden is secluded, easy to maintain and bordered by an attractive stream.

A stable door opens to the rear porch / boot room (perfect for containing a wet dog after a muddy walk!) and the garden beyond. The South facing sitting room is a standout space, offering dual aspect views across the garden to the lake and sea beyond. Across the upper floors, the bedrooms are bright and well proportioned, and all have wonderful views. The smaller 4th bedroom has been plumbed for conversion to a bathroom should future owners require this. There are two bathrooms with loos which are simple and elegant: one includes a bath / shower, whilst the other provides a fully tiled, walk in shower. Outside, a stone patio provides an idyllic vantage point for enjoying the sea views, leading onto the lawned garden. From here there is gated access to the enclosed ‘secret garden’. This remarkable home offers a rare blend of coastal beauty, historic charm, and modern comfort, an inspiring retreat in one of the Island’s most treasured landscapes.

This has been a very special place for the past 30 years in an amazing and tranquil location with wonderful views and places to go for walks but it is time to downsize and move closer to family. While we have enjoyed updating the property over the years, including converting the garage, there are plenty of opportunities for new owners to put their own stamp on the house and create their own unique and individual home. We are not far from Kingsdown with its three pubs, a good primary school, convenience store and post office as well as the Kingsdown and Walmer golf club. Walmer includes local shops, bars and restaurants, a bandstand, the Downs Sailing Clubhouse and a mainline station with fast trains to St Pancras taking an hour and 20 minutes. The Tides swimming pool complex is not far away and Deal is close by with its plethora of quaint streets, period properties, excellent restaurants including the Dining Club, The Blue Pelican and Little Harriet’s tea rooms. There are also a raft of attractive independent shops as well as the Saturday market, the seafront with its historic pier and the Royal Cinque Ports golf club and, if you want to go slightly further afield, you will find the championship courses at Sandwich. As far as education is concerned there are very good primary schools in the area while a wide variety of excellent grammar and private schools are available in the nearby towns.

Built in 1580, it is one of those exceptionally rare homes that feels extraordinary at first glance: rich in history, full of character and imbued with a warmth that cannot be manufactured. Despite its distinguished heritage, it has always felt wonderfully easy to live in. Behind its handsome façade lies a private sanctuary where the outside world melts away and the peaceful garden feels a million miles from everyday life. What truly set Bell House apart for us was this remarkable combination of tranquillity and convenience. Within minutes, we could reach the A1, the A14 and Huntingdon station, making connections effortless without compromising the calm of village life. Over the years, we have carefully enhanced the house with enormous respect for its heritage. The roof has been completely renewed, original wooden floors and pamment tiles lovingly restored, fireplaces reopened and a former cowshed transformed into a beautifully appointed guest suite. Every improvement has been guided by longevity, comfort and a desire to preserve the soul of the house. The interior were thoughtfully designed by well-known interior designers Joanne Lindsay and Jane Keisner. Bell House has witnessed the happiest chapters of our family life. Our children spent carefree summers picking fruit from the garden, sleeping in the treehouse, racing along a zip wire through the orchard and cycling through the village ford. The garden itself is magical: sun-filled from morning until dusk, with magnificent sunsets and spaces equally suited to quiet reflection or lively gatherings. Entertaining here has always been effortless. Intimate candlelit dinners have stretched long into the night, while fundraising events and celebrations for over a hundred guests have flowed seamlessly through the four reception rooms. Yet, when the house is quiet, our favourite retreat remains the principal bedroom and dressing room: indulgent, comforting and utterly peaceful. “Bell House doesn’t seek to impress; it charms everyone who walks through the door.” offering history, warmth and a setting in which memories are made and treasured for generations.
