Less than 3 miles from the historic centre of Canterbury, this luxury B&B enjoys a rural setting within its own oak woodland. It offers en suite rooms with free Wi-Fi and plenty of off-road parking for all guests.

Exceptional. The location worked well for me - a c. 10 quid taxi ride into Canterbury - had plenty of parking room. There was a forest to explore and pigs to see. It was really beautiful and peaceful! The host was wonderful and welcoming and made a fantastic full English breakfast to order in the morning (plus, there was cereal, etc.). The room was comfortable and modern and everything worked like it should! Would highly recommend.

Usually I am looking for that one point that´s not perfect - but this time I couldn´t find. Everything was nearly perfect, the location, the helpful hosts, the all-in-the-house-equipment (I never could imagine how many things can be stored and not beeing visible - well planned and designed). Hope that all other users will love it too and keep it clean and outstanding. We travelled with child and dog and all found their place.

The bed was extremely comfortable, the bathroom huge. Nice espresso maker in the room. Fast wi-fi. Kitchen very usable and communication with staff was fast and professional. They have *real* air conditioning here; many UK hotels advertise A/C but then deliver some horrible facsimile, but I was quite cool in my room at the height of summer.

    Everything about Gingerbread Cottage was immaculate. Superbly fitted out, extremely comfortable, spotlessly clean. We were surprised (& delighted) to find we had been left a wonderful welcome pack, delicious brownies, bottle of wine, crisps, milk etc. The location is ideal, a very quiet street with good footpath access to the city and easy walking to shops and cafes in St Dunstans. Altogether would highly recommend.

    Fantastic location, right in the heart of Canterbury. we always stay here when we visit our son in Kent. Rooms are spotless, staff always friendly and can’t complain about the breakfast which is just right. The only thing I would say is request a room away from the bar that is right next door, as they play their music loud and you can hear it from some rooms. You pay more that some budget hotels, but then a lot less than other hotels, so worth the price,
