Shirls chalet in Sheppey

This beautiful south facing brick built chalet is self catering with open plan kitchen, wc and shower. The view across farming fields look towards Swale and beyond to Oare and Faversham and to the left, the lights of Seasalter and Whitstable. You can hang out on the grass front, relax and get away from it all as it takes just over an hours drive from London. Or you may prefer to swim or relax by the sea. Bird watching is popular due to the salt marshes. Very unspoilt and very photographic.

The chalet is situated at the top end of Park Avenue Holiday Village with stunning views over changing seasons of farmland. It has a bright airy feel from the expansive skyline flooding in. A cosy lounge with sofa and built in wooden beds in each room. The kitchen is equipped with a fridge, freezer, cooker, microwave, kettle, toaster and washing machine.

Access is permitted on the Holiday Village and guests have use of the grass area in front of the chalet but is not restricted for use by other site users. Although, please do be considerate if anyone is using their front area and it may be best to walk around the back of their chalet. You may wish to pen in your dog/s to the left of the chalet as you look South or you may wish to erect the parasol supplied for all to keep cool from the sun.

There is a clubhouse (subject to season) with Internet access, toilet facilities, cafe and Children’s play area. Parking is permitted next to the chalet but on very wet days please park elsewhere.

Please note, no essentials are supplied i.e no bed linen, towels, soap, shampoo and toilet rolls.

There are available quilts and pillows.

Bed linen and towels can be supplied at an extra cost; £15 per person per stay. Please indicate this after booking.
