Wonderful hotel and people. Just made a mistake in booking an “accessible” room when we didn’t need it, and did not ask for twin beds when we needed them - as Queen size too narrow. Will know next time.

Perfect location in Canterbury.
Fabulous stay in a lovely lodge within the grounds of the Cathedral! Originally built for visiting priests about 20 years ago, and then opened to the general public. The rooms are lovely, quiet and comfortable. Exceptionally clean. Service was friendly and very helpful. Breakfast is included and table service and delicious. Value is excellent. I wished we'd stayed longer!

We were in the Annex and on reflection the main building was nicer. Our room was a bit tired such as very thin walls and hence noisy and the bathroom needed some attention. Small point but pillow were terrible and had to be changed for second night. Overall location was great with a really nice coffee shop and great breakfast. All staff were very good with special mention to the car park lady who was our first point of contact and very welcoming.

A fleeting visit but the experience was exceptional. Felt as if I was in 'seventh heaven' when my parking place was adjacent to the Cathedral, next to the hotel and secure overnight. Greeted in such a friendly manner and my room was one of the best In have ever had the privilege of staying in. I very much hope I will der able to repeat the experience and enjoy a longer stay.
