There is a door at the end of the hallway that leads down some steps to the back garden.

Rose Cottage is a villa typical of its period and is believed to have once been the Harbour Master's house. There is no other property in the street like it, especially one that has such a gorgeous garden.
Being in the centre of the street you are only a stone's throw away from local amenities including a pub, a noodle bar and fish and chip shop. Hythe has a wide variety of shops including Waitrose, Sainsbury's, and Aldi.
Walk or cycle along the tow path of The Royal Military Canal or take a stroll into the Cinque Port of Hythe with its shops, restaurant, and beach. Explore Folkestone with its recently restored Harbour Arm and beautiful promenade or the historic earth banks of its once Norman motte and ringwork castle. The iconic English Heritage Dover Castle is not far away and makes for a good day out exploring the Roman lighthouse, Medieval Great Tower and the Secret Wartime Tunnels.
Canterbury is a short drive and home to its famous cathedral, alongside St Martin's Church and St Augustine's Abbey. You may fancy relaxing on a lazy punt or take an historic boat trip on the river Stour. On your return to Rose Cottage, why not sample some wine at Simpson's Wine Estate.
