Hollydene Lodge is in a ideal location just outside the lovely seaside town of Whitstable, and under 3.5 miles from the vibrant Cathedral City of Canterbury. It is on the main bus route to both towns and the bus stop is located right outside where buses run every 15 minutes. Hollydene Lodge has been completely self contained with a well lit entrance. It has been completely refurbished throughout, with new bathroom and kitchen with terrace and balcony overlooking garden. It is a great spot for walking and cycling as it backs onto the famous Crab And Winkle Line which runs through the Clowes Wood and connects to the Viking Trail. It has free parking for 2 cars.
