Welcome to Riverside Retreats
Nestled along the tranquil chalk stream of the River Dour in Dover, we offer boutique holiday cottages designed for serenity and relaxation. Our retreats provide a warm, artisanal escape for those looking to reconnect with nature while enjoying the comforts of a thoughtfully curated riverside home. Whether you're here for the quiet beauty of the water or the historic charm of the Kent coast, we invite you to experience the gentle rhythm of Riverside Retreats.
Our Story
Riverside Retreats began with a simple vision: to share the restorative power of the water with others. Our journey started years ago when we discovered a neglected cottage on the banks of the Dour, finding peace in the gentle current and the rustling reeds of the Kent countryside.
We spent months carefully restoring every corner, preserving the artisanal charm of the original structures while ensuring every modern comfort was thoughtfully integrated. Today, we offer these curated escapes to guests seeking a calm, natural sanctuary where the world slows down and the beauty of nature takes center stage.
Our mission is to provide a serene riverside sanctuary where guests can reconnect with nature and themselves.
