The owners, Alistair and Robert, have two pooches, so unsurprisingly the hotel is dog-friendly.
For an extra £10 per night, guests can stay with their pet in the ground- floor Willow room, which comes with complimentary dog treats and a microfibre pet towel.
What is there to do at The Bay Tree?
It's close to all of the town’s main attractions, including the Dickens House Museum, dedicated to the 19th-century writer who regularly holidayed in Broadstairs.
For something more lively, though, Margate is a ten minute drive away and had trendy shops, bars and restaurants.
What is there to eat and drink at The Bay Tree?
The small sea-view restaurant offers simple dishes, well executed.
