About this property

Dovetail Cottage - Three Bedroom House, Sleeps 6

This perfectly positioned cottage is ideal for those wanting to savour the delights of Canterbury’s historic cobbled streets, featuring an excellent choice of restaurants, pubs, and a mix of boutique and popular high street shops. Enjoy a tour of the magnificent cathedral or perhaps a trip to The Canterbury Tales, to immerse yourself in the medieval past of the city. Take a trip to the Marlow Theatre or go on a summer boating punt along the River Stour - just some of the many things to see and do in this wonderful part of Kent. For those looking to explore further afield, the pretty seaside town of Whitstable is just 8 miles away, whilst rolling countryside and an abundance of footpaths can be found surrounding Canterbury itself. Canterbury East Railway Station is less than a mile away, with links to London.
The front door of this beautiful early-Victorian cottage that has been lovingly restored and decorated in a fresh mid-century style opens onto the comfortably furnished lounge/diner. It features a sofa and comfy armchairs, a warming wood burner and a Smart TV. From the lounge area, head through to the dining space that offers a large dining table with seating for all. Enjoy delicious meals that have been whipped up in the compact yet well-equipped kitchen, which features an electric oven and gas hob, fridge/freezer, washing machine, tabletop dishwasher, Nespresso Vertuo coffee machine, and microwave. For the ultimate in family entertainment, a door from the lounge leads down a set of stairs into the basement that has been fitted out as a cosy cinema room with a large Smart TV. Grab your fizzy pop, ice cream, and popcorn and while away an evening watching your favourite films. Heading back upstairs and up to the first floor, you will find the first of the three bedrooms: a double, and also a family bathroom with a shower over bath and WC. Stairs from the landing lead up to the second floor, and here you will find another double room and a twin room with views across to the cathedral. All duvets and pillows are Fogarty duck down and feather, hypoallergenic duvets and pillows available on request.
A door from the kitchen leads out to a courtyard garden with patio table and chairs and a charcoal BBQ - the perfect spot for enjoying a spot of al fresco dining on a warm evening. Parking is available 200 metres away in the public car park, subject to daily charges and availability.
