Excellent accommodation, clean and friendly place. When looking for the property in the dark is difficult to find as the name of the property is not visually seen in the dark.

A very good, reasonably priced small b+b close to many Canterbury amenities in a quiet cul de sac. George (the host) and his wife met us at the premises and were delightful

Not far from Canterbury West rail station, and about 15 min walk from the city centre. Clean and tidy bedroom with shared kitchen/diner, lounge and bathroom facilities. The owners are very friendly and helpful, and will do everything they can to make your stay pleasurable. Would definitely stay there again.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
The accommodation generally was well-appointed and remarkably clean and fresh. My single room was small but perfectly adequate, the bed comfortable and the location quiet. The 'continental' breakfast was ample on a help-yourself-basis and in a spotless kitchen there was a microwave and oven as well as ample fridge-freezer. There was a comfortable lounge but I did not see anyone else using it; in fact I don't think I saw any other guests during my stay (I was getting up early and going to bed early because of the early starts) although I did hear some coming in when I was in bed. The location is ten minutes or so from a superstore, about the same from one of the Canterbury mainline stations and just a short walk from the centre. I suppose you would say that accommodation is basic but exceptionally clean and tidy and comfortable.
