General Overview

Welcome to my colourful home in the heart of Margate’s Old Town, just a few minutes’ walk from the beach, Turner Contemporary, the harbour, independent cafés, vintage shops and everything that makes this little seaside town so special. The apartment is full of personality, artwork and joyful touches collected over many years. It’s a creative, welcoming space designed to inspire, whether you’re working remotely, writing, making art or simply enjoying a slower pace by the sea. There are two bedrooms, a lovely open living space and a small private terrace that’s perfect for a morning coffee or an evening glass of wine after a day exploring the coast. The location couldn’t be better. Step outside and you’re surrounded by Margate’s vibrant creative community, yet the flat feels like a peaceful retreat to come home to. Beautiful coastal walks, tidal pools and sandy beaches are all within easy walking distance. This is my home rather than a holiday rental, so I’m looking for someone who will enjoy it as much as I do and treat it with care and respect. In return, you’ll have a warm, characterful base from which to experience one of the UK’s most exciting creative towns. I’d love to exchange with someone in Berlin who feels the same way about their home and is looking for a thoughtful, trustworthy person to look after it while they’re away.

Polly

Hello! I’m Polly, a creative from the seaside town of Margate in the UK. This autumn I’m moving to Berlin to begin a Master’s in Applied Creative Psychology at Catalyst Institute. I’m hoping to spend my first few months getting to know the city, exploring its neighbourhoods, cafés, galleries and parks before deciding where I’d like to settle longer term. For the past few years I’ve run a much-loved Airbnb in my own home and know exactly how important it is to trust the person staying in your space. I’m naturally tidy, respectful and genuinely enjoy looking after beautiful homes. If you have plants, books or treasured objects, they’ll be in safe hands! I’m the founder of Joy Scouts, a project that encourages people to discover joyful places, experiences and communities. I’m endlessly curious, creative and happiest wandering a new city with a coffee in hand, discovering hidden courtyards, independent bookshops and interesting architecture. I’ll initially be travelling on my own, with the hope of bringing my wonderfully calm, well-behaved cockerpoo, Dude, to Berlin later in the year once I’m settled. Any future arrangement would always be discussed and agreed in advance. If you’re looking for someone who will genuinely appreciate and care for your home while you’re away, I’d love to hear from you. Equally, if you’d like to experience life in colourful, creative Margate, I’d be delighted to welcome you to my home by the sea.
