The hotel offers a full English breakfast combined with continental self-service buffet. The cocktail bar offers a range of Classic and Signature cocktails along with a selection of local beers, wines and spirits.

we were happily surprised with the accommodation. the room was cute, very comfortable and had a door leading to a cool patio (too bad it wasn’t sunny, it would be the perfect spot to drink a beer and chill). at night the restaurant is busy and it has a great atmosphere. the location was amazing. we would definitely stay again.

A short walk from Canterbury city centre and its world-famous Cathedral, this privately-owned hotel is set within a Victorian townhouse, amid 2 acres of well-maintained grounds. It offers free onsite parking.

Loved the large room. The building is set back from the street and just down the road from the university area so it was quite and peaceful. Easy walk into the center of Canterbury. Lovely garden at the rear and friendly staff.

With many original period features, the elegant en suite rooms have flat screen TVs, desks and cosy beds.

    Great furniture and interior design. Spacious living room space, newly furnished kitchen and the bed rooms were big enough for 3 couples. The owner was very friendly and helpful and we received clear instructions on using the keys and parking spaces, and some lovely arrival snacks to start our holiday.
