Shingle House | Unique design on the shingle beach of Dungeness
Visited on location by Nice2stayShingle House is set in the unusual landscape of Dungeness in Kent, England, amidst an exceptional shingle beach. Designed by the Scottish architectural firm, NORD Architecture, this quaint modern home takes shape from the neighboring fishermen's huts and, like them, is covered in black-stained cedar shingles and timber. Inside, on the other hand, it is bright white with an eclectic mix of contemporary furniture and a dark wooden floor.
Shingle House takes full advantage of its unique setting, with large windows and singular architectural details. The large open-plan kitchen and dining room have ceiling-high folding windows that can be opened fully, offering views of the surrounding countryside and the sheltered courtyard. In the living room - around the built-in wood stove - you can relax, read, or listen to music. A smaller sitting room, overlooking the sea, is on a mezzanine floor; leading to a bedroom and ensuite bathroom. The remaining three bedrooms and two bathrooms are downstairs at the back of the house overlooking the gardens. With these four bedrooms, Shingle House can accommodate 8 people and is an ideal place for families and friends looking for a comfortable and relaxing place to stay and who like to explore this unique coastal area.
The shingle beach on which the house stands is a nature reserve and is filled with unusual flora and fauna, but there is also a beautiful historic lighthouse and the famous Romney, Hythe, and Dymchurch Railway - the miniature railway - runs practically behind the garden. A little further afield are the beaches of Camber Sands and Greatstone Beach, as well as the charming towns of Rye and Tenterden, while Leeds Castle invites young and old for a historic day out.
Important: our calendar only shows weekly stays arriving on friday, but you can also arrive on monday. Also a midweek or weekend stay is possible, contact our team for more info!
