Perfectly lovely

The flat is very nicely done, clean and modern, nice bathroom, kitchen, and sitting area. It’s on the outskirts of Canterbury, theoretically near enough to walk but the streets are so narrow! We drove to the Park&Ride, which worked very well.

Perfect studio apartment in the country

A warm welcome from our hosts introduced us to this lovely, spacious studio apartment. It was spotlessly clean, well equipped with plenty of towels, a super shower and a mirror & plug for use of hairdryer, everything has been thought through & much appreciated. The area was so peaceful, we immediately relaxed with the comfortable seating & bed. The kitchen area was well equipped for making meals or we walked into Canterbury in about 35 mins where there was a variety of cafes & restaurants. It had everything we could ask for and more.

A little slice of style, spacious and comfort.

Fanstatic property- Stylish, Spacious, Open planned, Very Clean, Comfortable and yet at the same time felt very Cosy. Our hosts Colette & Mark have thought of everything, even down to a complimentary basket containing Appetiser, biscuits and crisps There was even an assortment of leaflets of where to go and what to do around the Kent countryside. They are a lovely couple who made us feel very welcomed. They were very friendly but not intrusive. Most certainly would come again. Definitely worth 5 stars.

Sunny Break in Kent

Immaculate and comfortable studio apartment on the edge of Canterbury. A short drive away from the City centre or the Park and Ride whichever is your preference. Close to the main road network for seaside or country house visits. Colette and Mark helpful and friendly hosts!

Spacious coach house type studio in beautiful, quiet position

We had a lovely time in this very comfortable and immaculately clean coach house type studio which was well equipped with all we needed for a short stay. Situated within about a five minute drive of Canterbury itself, the Park and Ride, or the A2, although very quiet and with a view of the lovely countryside. Colette and Mark were very welcoming and helpful.
