We thoroughly enjoyed our mini break and first time staying at Westbrook Lodge.The room was beautifully decorated, immaculately clean and the bed & pillows were super comfy.The room was well equipped with tea & coffee making facilities as well as a fan and mini fridge which was perfect for me to store my medication.We stayed in the Lion themed room downstairs which was perfect for my mobility needs and I highly recommend it for anyone that struggles with stairs.Tracy & Colin were amazing hosts who couldn’t have done more for us.We booked direct and Tracy was so helpful & patient with my accessibility questions.We can’t wait to stay again next year.

What a most wonderful find of a guest house. Tracey and Colin are most welcoming and friendly, where nothing is too much trouble. I stayed here for 2 nights in a comfortable double room that had shared bathroom facilities. The shared facilities were kept in the most cleaniest tip top condition, and I never had to wait to use the shower or toilet.The breakfast room was a pleasant and enjoyable space to eat, and the food was fresh and delicious, plus it was served with a smile and some lovely conversation.This is somewhere I will definitely come back and stay again, especially now my daughter has moved to Margate, this will be my first port of call when I go back.I cannot recommend this lovely homely guest house enough, and would like to thank Tracey and Colin for their wonderful hospitality.
