Canterbury bed & breakfasts

Pros: Lovely room and bathroom. Everything we needed. Breakfast was great and excellent value for money. Stuart told us about a lovely pub nearby which we ate at - the food was delicious and directed us to the park and ride into Canterbury the next morning, which worked really well. Thoroughly recommend Oakside Lodge.

Cons: Nothing

Pros: Great location for Canterbury and Howlets zoo. Very friendly welcome and clean comfortable room. Very good breakfast too.

Pros: Stuart was very personable and nothing was too much trouble. The full English breakfast was good quality, generous portion and extremely well cooked. The guest lounge was a very nice touch, with tv,comfy sofas, games & books. A good stock of wine, beer & water available if required too.

Cons: Having to come home

Pros: Everything especially the outside spaces, peaceful, good location, great service and rooms

Cons: Extra outside night light

Pros: There was a warm welcome from the owner at a mutually convenient time. Plenty of local information available. The room was clean and warm. Plenty of hot water and on the same level as the entrance. We were given a key so that we could come and go as we pleased without relying on staff to let us in. Bedding was clean and comfortable. Property Is a short drive from Canterbury which was ideal for us to pop in for our evening meal and in the morning we got there quickly for when the Cathedral opened. Breakfast had plenty of choice for all tastes and diets. Wide selection of cereals, spreads, fruit and yoghurt. The breakfast room is well placed with a view onto the woodland and the patio /garden. We were able to birdwatch through the French doors! Parking free and convenient to the entrance.

Cons: There was a problem with the water heater for making coffee/ tea in the room - I feel that it should have been checked before we went in. After travelling one of the first things we wanted to do was to make a cuppa! However the owner resolved this quickly for us by providing an alternative. Breakfast was great over all - but overcooked bacon which was a shame - made it a bit dry and un appetising to eat - also looked like it had been cooked in previously used oil. Signage from the road and entrance needs to be clearer. We arrived in the dark and overshot the entrance - Perhaps some low small spotlights on the signs to highlight the location and gates or gate posts to demark the entrance to guide drivers in the right direction towards the parking spaces - once we were through the gates there was not enough light to see the parking spaces clearly - again we drove past the spaces. Maybe a timed security sensor light might help.

Pros: The owner was incredibly helpful and welcoming. The property itself was in a good area, out the way in a nice quiet area but still close to the city centre so not far in a taxi. The breakfast included was delish. Can’t fault our visit and would highly recommend!

Cons: Nothing!

Pros: It was a place with history, old building yet nice

Cons: Nothing

Pros: The location is perfect for access to the Chunnel. The village itself is beautiful and you could do a pretty decent pub crawl just in the village....how many pubs?? The staff were lovely and welcoming and offered to help with my bag. The pub is definitely dog friendly although be warned this a lovely resident dog who has free reign and cats too. I didn’t eat dinner there but it was clearly very popular and looked lovely.

Cons: It is what it is...a lovely old pub which clearly has listed status so I appreciate that renovations would be problematic and expensive but the walls really are paper thin between the rooms (it warns you of this in the guidance manual in the room). You can hear everything plus of course the naff secondary glazing means you can also hear all the traffic outside plus everything from downstairs in the bar/restaurant. There is a bus stop directly opposite. I didn’t sleep a wink. The room I stayed in was very tired and very scruffy.

Pros: Such a beautiful property, cosy and authentic. Rooms lovely and comfortable and the staff are very attentive and polite, nothing is too much trouble. Dinner and breakfast excellent!!

Pros: Very friendly waitress, Ellie, who told us a bit about the history of the place. We loved the historical aspect! Great place to stay.

Pros: Lovely room , great food and warm and welcoming hosts will definitely be back for another stay again thank you

Pros: It was everything we wanted for our short break,great staff and lovely food

Pros: I was given awarm welcome by the owner and made to feel at home.

Cons: A little difficult to find as I could not see a sign for the guest house but my sat nav took me directly to it.

Pros: Lovely room and lovely staff.

Pros: Friendly service with comfortable rooms and an excellent breakfast.

Cons: A little difficult to find as no sign.

Pros: Friendly & helpful. Clean & comfortable. Good bed. Good parking. Great breakfast.
