What guests think
Across the reviews, Charming 2 bed cottage in the heart of Canterbury with parking nearby stands out for its central yet quiet location, thoughtful hosts, comfortable space for families, and extras like arranged parking, gardens, and a well-equipped kitchen.
Cleanliness is praised across many stays, though one longer visit noted rushed turnover cleaning and the absence of a vacuum. Access to the property by road can be tricky, and the internal staircase is steep, which may challenge guests with mobility issues. Expect a charming, well-situated cottage with home-like comforts in a quiet, central setting.

Augustine’s cottage is a lovely, old house in a set of row houses just outside of the walls of the City of Canterbury. Close to the cathedral and city centre but very quiet and absolutely charming.There is a lovely garden out front and a deck with a BBQ and back yard out back. The downstairs has a living room, dining room, sun-filled kitchen, and bathroom with shower. There are two bedrooms and a spacious bathroom with tub and shower upstairs.There is a Waitrose just around the corner for all of your shopping needs.Do visit the cathedral and abbey and take the opportunity to attend choral evensong at 5:30 pm. We enjoyed our stay immensely and highly recommend this property.

Mitten im Zentrum ein paar Meter von der Einkaufszone liegt das gemütliche Haus. Ein großer Parkplatz ist in der Nähe, zu dem man ein paar 100 m geht es. Wir haben die Zeit sehr genossen, obwohl das Haus sehr zentral ist ist es ruhig gelegen. Mehrere Spiele (Xbox WEE) haben die Kinder erfreut, ein super Ort, um von hier aus Flüge in die Region und nach London zu machen… Sehr empfehlenswert!

Für unseren 1-wöchigen Urlaub (4 Pers. + Hund) war das Haus optimal. Bei der Ausstattung hat nichts gefehlt, alles war wie beschrieben. Alles ist sehr sauber und gepflegt. Wir haben uns direkt nach der Ankunft wohlgefühlt. Der Garten ist eingezäunt, so dass unser Hund frei laufen konnte. Der Parkplatz (überwacht u. ca. 200 m entfernt) wurde vom Vermieter organisiert und bezahlt. Ruhige Lage nahe der Stadtmitte, Supermarkt (Waitrose) in der Nähe zu Fuß erreichbar. Der Kontakt zum Vermieter war freundlich und sehr nett. Die Reaktion auf Anfragen erfolgte innerhalb kurzer Zeit (wenige Stunden). Vielen Dank für eure Gastfreundschaft!

Perfect location to main street (mall) of Canterbury only being maybe 10 minute or less walk. Well stocked to cater for guests including books for light reading. Heating system was very effective. Garden patio with table and chairs in front and back were appreciated on the fine, sunny days. Booklet of general town information and instructions for the heating system and tv etc kept us well informed. Check in information was easy to follow. Initial communication on booking was also easy to navigate. Beds were comfortable. Two rooms and two bathrooms. We enjoyed our stay and recommend this cottage.

Wir (Mein Mann, ich und unsere drei Töchter, davon ein Teenager und zwei erwachsen) waren über Silvester in diesem schönen Cottage. Die Lage war perfekt, ruhig, aber die Innenstadt ist in wenigen Minuten erreichbar, ein Waitrose und ein Tesco Express ebenfalls. Dazu organisiert der Vermieter im Vorhinein einen überwachten Parkplatz, der nur 200 m entfernt ist, so dass man sich darum nicht kümmern muss. Bei der Ausstattung hat nichts gefehlt, alles war wie beschrieben bzw. noch besser (ausreichend Geschirr und Besteck, zwei Kaffeemaschinen, Wasch- und Spülmaschine etc.). Alles ist sehr sauber, gepflegt und mit Liebe eingerichtet. Wir haben uns direkt nach der Ankunft sehr wohlgefühlt und über dieses herrliche Feriendomizil gefreut. Der Kontakt zum Vermieter war großartig, sehr schnelle Reaktion, alles ganz unkompliziert und mehr als hilfsbereit. Vielen Dank für diesen schönen Kurzurlaub, wir kommen alle gerne wieder!

Well-stocked, great location (you can see Canterbury Cathedral spires from the front garden), charming decor and spacious floor plan easily sleeps four or five. My kids loved the extras (X-box with plenty of offline games), and my wife and I enjoyed watching some DVD’s from the owner’s collection, including the Spielberg classic ET, on the widescreen TV in the parlor. Warm gas fireplace in parlor and instructions on how to use. Much better option than any local hotel!

Huis ligt op 3 minuten van centrum Canterbury en ook op 30-45 minuten van Dover, diverse badplaatsen. London is ook een uurtje met de trein. Parkeerplaats in de buurt en supermarkt om de hoek

As soon as I mentioned a problem with the downstairs shower, the landlord had it replaced immediately with a new one. The location is fantastic and every appliance in the cottage worked without fault. We felt very happy and comfortable during our month-long stay with our son and daughter-in-law and granddaughter from Germany. The only downside - which has nothing to do with the accommodation or lovely landlord - was that I parked my car in Canterbury High Street, Best Lane car park. I paid JustPark to park my car for a month and I would not recommend this to anyone. The parking spaces are very tight and someone hit my car causing considerable damage and just drove off. As there is no CCTV surveillance of the actual parking spaces, I cannot find out who the culprit was. This was a disappointing end to the holiday but did not spoil our stay in beautiful Canterbury. Thank you Neil

Nous avons passé un très bon sejour. Emplacement idéal. Très bon contact avec le propriétaire. Parking inclus dans la location et facile d'accès. Le point à ameliorer est la propreté du logement. Ménage certainement fait rapidement entre chaque locataire. De plus nous sommes restés 9 nuits sur place et nous n'avions pas d'aspirateur à disposition. Pour une famille de 4 personnes ça fait long sans ménage. Linge très propre. Logement bien équipé.

As soon as I mentioned a problem with the downstairs shower, the landlord had it replaced immediately with a new one. The location is fantastic and every appliance in the cottage worked without fault. We felt very happy and comfortable during our month-long stay with our son and daughter-in-law and granddaughter from Germany. The only downside - which has nothing to do with the accommodation or lovely landlord - was that I parked my car in Canterbury High Street, Best Lane car park. I paid JustPark to park my car for a month and I would not recommend this to anyone. The parking spaces are very tight and someone hit my car causing considerable damage and just drove off. As there is no CCTV surveillance of the actual parking spaces, I cannot find out who the culprit was. This was a disappointing end to the holiday but did not spoil our stay in beautiful Canterbury. Thank you Neil

Location
Location is a standout: central and walkable to the Cathedral, High Street, shops, transport, and groceries, yet tucked away and quiet. Many guests used it as an easy base for exploring Canterbury and nearby sights.

Augustine’s cottage is a lovely, old house in a set of row houses just outside of the walls of the City of Canterbury. Close to the cathedral and city centre but very quiet and absolutely charming.There is a lovely garden out front and a deck with a BBQ and back yard out back. The downstairs has a living room, dining room, sun-filled kitchen, and bathroom with shower. There are two bedrooms and a spacious bathroom with tub and shower upstairs.There is a Waitrose just around the corner for all of your shopping needs.Do visit the cathedral and abbey and take the opportunity to attend choral evensong at 5:30 pm. We enjoyed our stay immensely and highly recommend this property.

This property is an excellent base for exploring Canterbury. It's quiet and secluded, yet still close to all amenities. The grocery store is a short walk, and the local pub is a great place to unwind after your days adventure.

Huis is mooi Victoriaans huis, caracteristiek ingericht en schoon. Er zijn veel dingen (magnetron, ventilator, waterkoker) aanwezig. Huis ligt op 3 minuten van centrum Canterbury en ook op 30-45 minuten van Dover, diverse badplaatsen. London is ook een uurtje met de trein. Parkeerplaats in de buurt en supermarkt om de hoek

Highly recommended!As a family of three with a dachshund, we had a truly perfect week in Canterbury. The apartment was very clean, well-maintained, and equipped with everything we needed. The location is super central yet very quiet – all the shops and attractions are just around the corner. The parking was a huge plus, making our stay much easier. The owner, Neill, was extremely friendly and always available. Thank you so much, Neill, for the wonderful time!
