Our lodges and cabins in Kent
The county is mixed. Inland you find cabins and huts among orchards, hop country and woodland in the Weald. On the coast the stock is mainly lodges and holiday park chalets, along the north Kent shore, the Thanet beaches and the south coast near Folkestone and Hythe. Guests rate the places highly, at 8.8 out of 10 on average. A few places have a private pool or a sea view, and the cheapest nights are for small units for two, often away from the hot tub bracket. Weekends are usually dearer than midweek, so a Sunday to Thursday stay gives you the widest choice of budgets.

Kent has cabins and shepherd's huts in the orchards and woods of the Weald, a short drive from London.
Kent works for short breaks from London and the south east, and the choice is wide. Stays run from small cabins for two in orchards and woods to coastal lodges around Whitstable, Deal and Folkestone, plus some very large houses for groups. Half of the places have a hot tub, and about half take pets, so a dog-friendly soak with a garden is easy to find.
Prices vary more by town and size than by season. Leysdown-on-Sea and Sheerness are well below the county norm, while Canterbury and Biddenden are clearly dearer. About a third of places have a log burner, and only a small share have a sauna. Most places sleep four to six, and the average is a little over six guests, which suits families and small groups better than couples.
Where to stay in Kent
Deal has the most places of any named town, followed by Canterbury, Leysdown-on-Sea, Whitstable and Kingsdown. Deal is dearer than the county norm but only a fifth of its places have a hot tub. Canterbury and Biddenden are the dearest towns here, and two thirds of Canterbury places have a hot tub. Hythe has the highest hot tub share, at about 90%. Leysdown-on-Sea and Sheerness are the cheapest, although Leysdown has no hot tubs. Whitstable sits in the middle on price, with nearly half its places offering a hot tub.

Features
A garden is the most common feature, found at about 70% of places, and it adds little to the price. Hot tubs come at half of all places and those places are clearly dearer than the rest. A barbecue is available at four in ten, and a log burner at a third, at a similar price level to the barbecue. Swimming pools are cheaper than the hot tub group, which points to holiday park lodges with shared pools. Sea views are rarer, at about one in eight. Children's play areas and high chairs show how many places are set up for families.

By number of guests
Sleeps 5 to 6 is the biggest group, with about 150 places, and the cost per person is lowest there. Couples pay the most per head, since a cabin for two costs not much less than one for four. Prices rise sharply from 10 guests upwards, and the per person cost then settles at roughly double the level for 5 to 6 guests. Places for 20 or more are few, but they exist, with up to 44 guests in the largest. If you are a group of eight or nine, check whether a 10 sleeper costs less than two smaller places.
Prices in the months shown are lowest in November and rise through December and January. February is the dearest of the six months, and March slips back before April climbs again. Availability is greater in March and April, with about two thirds of places still free, against roughly half in the winter months. A week in winter costs a little more than a week outside winter, which is unusual. Late autumn is the cheapest time for a short break, while February suits those who book early for a hot tub stay.

All towns in Kent
Beyond the biggest towns, the choice is spread across villages and small coastal places. Towns on the north Kent coast tend to be cheaper, and the Weald villages and Canterbury tend to be dearer. If your dates are fixed, pick two or three neighbouring towns and compare them. Deal, Kingsdown and Sandwich are close together on the east coast, so one search covers them. Check the pet policy before booking, since some places take dogs only on request.
Leysdown-on-Sea and Sheerness are the cheapest of the larger towns. Both sit well below the county norm. Whitstable and Kingsdown are also below the usual level, while Canterbury and Biddenden are the dearest.

About a third of places have a log burner or fireplace. They are found at both small cabins and larger lodges. Some of them combine it with a hot tub, so filter for both if you want them together.
