Facilities

Further details indoors:
The attractive stained glass front door of this pretty holiday cottage in Canterbury leads into a small lobby where there is plenty of space to hang coats. The whole of the downstairs of the house is open plan with oak flooring throughout. At one end is the spacious seating area with brown leather sofa (which is a sofa bed) and modern round oak table with four pull out leather stools. A reclining leather chair completes the scene with modern lamps and prints on the walls. There is a TV with Sky Plus, wireless broadband is available and an Ipod docking station for use during your stay in Canterbury.

Leading from the living area is the modern galley kitchen with plenty of storage and work space. Machines include electric oven, gas hob, extractor fan, washer/dryer, dishwasher and fridge with ice compartment. There are plenty of cooking utensils, china and glass provided for your use.

Beyond the kitchen is another dining area with a large modern oak table and seating for up to 8 guests. This is a lovely sunny room with skylight and double doors leading into the garden and terrace, with wonderful views of the Canterbury skyline.

There is a modern spiral-style staircase from the living area to the first floor. There are two bedrooms here and the family bathroom. The master bedroom is spacious with a double bed, bedside tables and lamps. There is a large sliding mirrored wardrobe and separate dressing table, stool and lit vanity mirror. The colour scheme is based on an aqua theme with a brown leather headboard; with luxury linen on the bed and pretty throw this room has a calm and relaxing atmosphere.

The second bedroom is a single with a pine bed, bedside table and lamp. There is a large chest of drawers, full length mirror and modern glass desk, and this room overlooks the Canterbury skyline. At night you can enjoy the stunning view of the floodlit Cathedral.

The Canterbury area

Canterbury is a wonderful medieval city, which is surrounded by the original city walls. It has so much to offer the holidaymaker including the Cathedral and St Augustine’s Abbey, both of which have been designated UNESCO World Heritage Sites. A whole day can be spent just exploring the Cathedral, Crypt and Cloisters.

The city is best explored on foot with a maze of intriguing side streets and a huge variety of shops, quaint cafes and pubs. The High Street has all the main shops and at one end is the new Whitefriars Shopping Centre – this is fully pedestrianised and a great place to shop till you drop!

Canterbury also boasts a permanent farmer’s market at The Goods Shed; where there is an on site restaurant and wonderful local food can be bought direct from the producers – perfect for your self catering holiday.

Canterbury also offers Historic River Tours, ghost tours, museums and for those that get tired of walking you can hire cycles to discover more for yourself.

Canterbury is also the home of Kent County Cricket Club, which is an award winning ground about a mile from the city centre. There is a Cricket Festival in early August which is very popular with cricket supporters.

For golfers there is an 18 hole golf course about 2 miles from the city centre, and further afield are the links courses at Royal St George’s in Sandwich and Royal Cinque Ports at Deal.

Surrounding Canterbury there are many other attractions - for children the wild animal parks at Howletts and Port Lympne are great locations for days out. There is also the Romney Hythe and Dymchurch Railway which is a miniature steam railway which can take you down to the beach at Dymchurch – both children and adults love it!

For garden lovers Kent and East Sussex boasts many famous and beautiful gardens to visit. Gardens include Goodnestone Park Gardens, Mount Ephraim, Great Dixter in Northiam and the famous Sissinghurst Castle Gardens in Sissinghurst. A lovely afternoon can be spent exploring these gardens and enjoying tea and cakes in the tea room afterwards.

With the proximity of the Channel Tunnel and the port of Dover, day trips to France are so easy - you can also take the Eurostar to Paris which only takes 2 hours.
