The rooms were very modern, spacious and relaxing. The staff were all pleasant and helpful. There was an ease being here, nothing to complicated. Which is what you want after a hectic day.
The area was also peaceful and quiet and if you wanted to go the the city centre only a 10 minute walk.
Breakfast was classic continental, some people would want cooked breakfast, however I was happy to have yogurt, fruit, cereal, toast and morning bakery goods.
The only improvement i say is maybe the t.v's need updating, to chromecast.
Excellent accommodation that felt like home, without no hassle.

We stayed here for one night over the weekend, a pretty little property around 30 minutes walk from central Canterbury. This wasn't too much of an issue as we are happy to walk but it was further than anticipated.
We slept so well in the soft bed and liked our little room. When we arrived however there was a brown stain in the toilet and although we flushed it a few times, it would always come back which suggests plumping needs a look at.
Says 4 rooms on website but there are 6 and they are all really close together. We were woken up by a toddler scream and crying at 7am outside our door.
Breakfast was subpar to be honest - our bowls and plates were a little dirty and crispy as hadnt been cleaned properly. Breakfast is advertised as continental so we were expecting some cheese cold meats for our bread but there was just toast, marmite and butter etc, cereal and some mixed fruit.
Overall, nice property, friendly staff, comfy beds but hygiene could be improved as could breakfast.

A comfortable room with an excellent breakfast and friendly staff.
Great to have easy parking and only a short bus ride to the beautiful historic city of Canterbury.
The cathedral is unbelievable!!
