CATHEDRAL VIEW COTTAGE, CANTERBURY

This unique character property is in Central Canterbury and ideally suited for couples or families to enjoy and explore the Cathedral and everything that the city has to offer right on your door step.

It offers comfortable accommodation and in the words of the owner is "closer to the front door of the Cathedral than the back of the Cathedral is"

From the moment you walk into the cottage, you will fall in love with the original features of the property. The large main living/dining area also has BT Internet TV, a CD player and fast Fibre WiFi running at 72gig per second.
The kitchen is fully equipped with Fridge/Freeze, Washing machine and microwave and leads to a court yard garden at the rear of the property , with table and chairs where you can enjoy a chilled glass a wine or cool beer.

Upstairs there are 3 bedrooms all doubles although the 3rd bedroom would be more suited to 2 children. It is from this bedroom that you can see how close the Cathedral actually is. There is also a family bathroom with bath, shower, sink and WC.

Disliked: Cleanliness
disappointing stay
The apartment is centrally located but that was the only positive as we had a disappointing stay. It’s clean but there was a musty smell throughout  and although the listing states there’s a TV available, it was on the lounge floor and hadn’t been installed.  When we arrived at the property the box for TV was left outside in front of the lounge window next to rubbish left there.  There is no parking at the property so you have to offload bags first then find parking which costs £30 a day. There was no welcome book with contact numbers, information, house rules so we couldn’t even discuss with the host so had to call VRBO to help.  When We eventually got in contact with the host I was told their son had been staying at the property and left the TV there and that a TV was not in the listing which it clearly is.  It appears the hosts were not interested in engaging with their clients to ensure that everything was as expected, which it wasn’t. Our stay was only for 3 nights but the TV issue never got resolved and we certainly wouldn’t stay here again or recommend this cottage. Disappointing!

Clean and tidy but Small
This is advertised for 6 people with 3 double bedrooms but one of the bedrooms is single, this did not affect us as we only had one adult in this room. then downstairs there are only 4 chairs to sit at the table ? Also for the lounge part there is just the one sofa and one chair ? We found it difficult to seat ourselves let alone if there were six of us. Also there was no pack to give us instructions about things in the property ......for instance the water went cold after 3 showers and it took a little while to work out about the boiler, also no information on Canterbury, such as things to do and places to eat etc which is always useful. The property is as it says near the cathedral and well placed we found it clean and tidy and the kitchen, though small, was very well equipped. Parking is a problem but a few car parks within walking distance.

Top spot
Superplek in leuk gebied, alles op loopafstand te doen. Huis is schoon. Bedden zijn wel beetje doorgezakt dus met rugklachten niet ideaal. Geen parkeerplek aanwezig. Dit is lastig zo in het centrum, parkeren kan betaald op parkeerplekken maar is redelijk kostbaar. Wel een plek oom naar terug te keren.

Logement très confortable ,propre,tout le nécessaire en terme de cuisine,linge de maison,,etc,,etc.
Bonjour Logement très bien situé à même le centre-ville, typiquement anglais, propre et tout le nécessaire pour passer un agréable séjour, ce qui a été notre cas.Juste une remarque les meubles démontés dans le salon aurait pu être retirés,et une deuxième clef aurait été un plus,cela n’enlève rien à la qualité énoncée plus haut. Adresse à retenir si nous revenons sur Canterbury Cordialement Mario Fernandez 👍🏻
