About this property

Charming 2 bed cottage in the heart of Canterbury with parking nearby

  • An idyllic and quintessential English cottage set in a quiet cul-de-sac of just 10 cottages less than 5 minutes' walk from Canterbury's historic and vibrant city centre. The property which boasts both front and back gardens, Canterbury Cathedral views, 2 bedrooms, traditional decor and all mod cons sleeps up to 4 adults (+Z bed) is one of the very few cottages in the middle of Canterbury which is also pet friendly. Please note that, as is typical in cottages of this type, the stairs are quite steep to the bedrooms though we do have handrails. A free parking permit is available for your stay on request at nearby Longport car park.

Great cottage centrally located in Canterbury

We had a great time at Augustine's Cottage. The location is excellent, 5-10 minutes' walk from downtown and the cathedral, and even closer to Augustine's Abbey. The long walk along the river has some beautiful parks and then open countryside and is a nice break from the crowds on the high street. The cottage is very well equipped and comfortable. We enjoyed lunches in the back yard with sandwiches from nearby Phoebe's. Definitely a place to return to.

Charming and spacious cottage in great location

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!

Charming cottage

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.

Enjoyed our stay at Augustine Cottage.

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.

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

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!
