This Canterbury abode is a quaint spot to call home. Spend the summer season punting along the River Stour and sipping craft beers along its banks, and winter months cosied up by the fire playing shuffleboard. We like how the original features blend with the necessary mod-cons – it’s a slightly-dated but comfortable place to return home after a day exploring the historied streets and The Beaney House of Art & Knowledge. Though you’ll find plenty of space to unwind as a group, there’s only one full bathroom here. With the city’s medieval sights on your doorstep, we’re sure you’ll spend most of your time down the lanes.

About Canterbury
The tales that Canterbury could tell. Abandoned by the Romans, chosen as the home of Britain’s first cathedral and later one of the most important pilgrimage sites in Europe, if it’s history you’re after, you’ll find it here in spades. The city centre is compact and beautiful – with cobbled streets lined with architectural treasures, fabulous shopping and an eclectic mix of eateries, ancient pubs and student bars. Nearly one...
