ABode Canterbury

ABode Canterbury

10/10 Excellent
"Location central. Short walk to the Canterbury Cathedral , easy access to walk on the Wall close by that surrounds the old town.. Lots of shops and places to eat. The walk to the hotel was longer than anticipated but was much more pleasant on the way back to train station back to London being more relaxed knowing the route. Highly recommend visiting Canterbury. Recommend staying two days to see Canterbury."
