Prospect Place

Clean and comfortable. Lovely little house. Everything you need to make your stay nice. Husband is in Canterbury Hospital so was nice not to have to travel far .

Near to city center, good location.<br/><br/>We had a problem with hot water. We complated many times, but someone did not fix it for a whole week. If anything happen you can just call to the renting agency...so we were disappointed.

The property was close to the city center (about a 10-minute walk) which made it very easy for us to move back and forth. There's also a bus stop a few meters away (like 30 seconds to 1 minute away from the property) so if we wanted to use the bus it was also very easy to do so. The property is nicely quiet and very pretty with a well-equipped kitchen and a beautiful quaint backyard which I imagine would be wonderful during the warmer months. They also had many games and books which was nice for the day we had extra time in the evening. We especially liked the dining area as it was quite cute and very aesthetic for those who like to take pictures :) Overall we loved it and will be booking again when we visit Canterbury again.<br/><br/>The heating system for the shower was a little complicated for us to use and we didn't quite figure it out as our stay was so short. We didn't have much time to ask about it either as we were quite busy during our stay. The staircase was also quite small but I think it's a European/British thing to have them this way :) May be good to know in case you're visiting with someone who has difficulty climbing stairs.

Lovely place would happily stay again

Das Haus ist wunderschön. very British the Garden and the flouers are so beautiful.

Good location in quiet street. very good space in the house<br/><br/>Parking - a long way to a car park.

Close to all the sights in Canterbury

Would not stay again and would not book with BluFox!<br/>The only positive - great location; quiet but very close to the centre. The place itself seemed to be well equipped, nicely decorated with pleasant additions like lots of books and board games.<br/>However...<br/>1. The shower produced only luckewarm/cold water, never resolved<br/>2. There was no CO detector, although listed <br/>3. Hive thermostat did not work, the heating could be regulated by valves on the radiotors though.<br/>4. There was dust, stains on the sofas, cobwebs, hair on the blanket, and the dining table was sticky<br/>5. No bed linen provided for the third blanket.<br/>8 The property flooded on our 3d day, apparently problems with guttering. <br/>Left after flooding and had to argue with BlueFOx about the refund, and to involve AirB&B.<br/>After coffee machine was collected by one member of the team, another one was questioning me where the coffee machine is after check out!<br/>Lots if impersonal auto messages from BlueFox, some not relevant.

Good location, quiet, comfortable and having a lovely little garden.

Coffee machine leaked water onto the kitchen counter. <br/> <br/>Water temperature in the shower could not be adjusted to a high enough temperature to make showering comfortable.

Ultimate experience.<br/>Hassle free procedure, peaceful place to live and an amazing house to reside

The accommodation was comfortable, clean, and had good facilities. Too often there is no toaster, or microwave, or coffee machine. This had all the necessary home appliances and utensils. Very happy.

Location<br/><br/>Beds are too small to count as double

We stayed in the place for 4 days and used it as a base to exploreCanterbury and Dover for which it was ideal. communication and checkin was ideal. The place was as advertised which includes the lovely back garden. The house was furnished for a comfortable stay.

??????????????10????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

Well equipped. Pretty garden. Two toilets. Separate dining room. Coupd leave bags after check out.<br/><br/>Small double beds. Early check out. Fawlty bedroom window which couldn’t be closed. A 15-20 minute walk to the city centre. Only paid street parking with 4 hour maximum stay Mon-Fri. during the day.

Rustige ligging en tuin<br/><br/>Matrassen niet comfortabel en de koffiemachine werkte niet en de douche gaf geen heel warm water

Warm and cozy home. We have stayed for a month and we could really make ourselves at home. I did do a lot of cooking. The cooking utensils are nice and sufficient.

cute property<br/><br/>heating had issues so cold house,meaning quilts were to thin and were cold, shower water and bath was Luke warm, back bedroom door handle came outta door causing daughter issues she would stuck inside

Thank you we really enjoyed staying there

It's a lovely space in a great location. The house has its vintage charm but it could also mean that some furniture and equipments wouldn't be as modern. Nevertheless, the bath is great. The big private outdoor space is a rare find on Airbnb. Unfortunately the router was not working when we checked in but the team did their best to fix it in 2 days. Communication with the management team was efficient. Do bring your own slippers/shampoo etc.

Great clean house. Will be staying again. Great value

Logement agréable, bien équipé, très propre à 10 mn du centre historique.

nice , the house very clean , comfortable place ,near town walk 10 mins

Great value! We had a lovely stay in cosy house. Fantastic location!

The biggest advantage of this lovely cottage is that it is a self-contained accomodation with a nice garden! It is also very well situated on a peaceful street near the center of Canterbury. <br/> Self check-in was very handy and communication was very smooth. <br/>The kitchen is well equipped as is the entire place. One note of caution - stairs are quite steep (for those travelling with kids who are not confident walkers). It was not an issue for us.<br/>We very much enjoyed our WE stay here and would happily return.<br/> Thank you, Blue Fox!

Barbara’s place was lovely and in a fantastic location to explore Canterbury. We stayed with two friends and made use of the sofa bed. All beds were comfy but the sofa bed was a bit “ worn” looking. The house itself was clean but could do with a bit of a refurb. We had a lovely time and felt Barbras place for excellent value.<br/>Non of us could connect to the WiFi the wkend we stayed.<br/>I loved Canterbury and would return to Barbras place in the future, there’s a lovely little garden which would be great to enjoy in the summer.

Nice charming cottage, ideally located 10 minutes away from Canterbury center. We felt at home and the kids were delighted to sleep on the same floor as us. Well spaced for four, we added a 3 years old that fitted nicely (kid bed available). I found all necessary equipment to cook including with the oven. Supermarket is 5 minutes away. The street in front allows parking but only 4 hours during week days, a parking is available 5 mins away at a rate of 1.8 cheaper one is available but 30 mins walk away (10 minutes by bus). Garden seems nice but with February weather we could not explore it. One little thing though is the noice of the ventilator in the 1st floor bathroom. I allowed myself to cut it (switch is on the wall at close to the ceiling).

This home was a perfect stay for us - the three of us had plenty of room; the kitchen was in fact well-stocked with necessary tools; the TV already had an HDMI cord; the location was very conveniently close to the bus station; and that shower was a wonderful luxury. We were even able to leave our bags for a few hours after check-out. Note to winter travelers: the kitchen floors were absolutely freezing, so you may want to bring slippers :)

Clean, peaceful and comfortable stay

Very nice little place, close to the town centre making everything walkable.

Great little old cottage in walking distance of the city centre! Canterbury is a lovely city and this is a wonderful place to stay for a weekend whilst you visit.

The cottage is cosy, quiet and very well located. Perfect to discover Canterbury and its surroundings. For those who would like to eat in the cottage, the kitchen equipments (pans , saucepans <br/>etc) should be changed. For a family of 4 , it is a nice place to stay.

Great stay! Perfect quiet location. Would definitely stay again!

Nice cottage

A lovely little cottage in a great location for the city. Helpful and prompt responses from host/property management company. Totally recommended.

The Blue Fox team manage this property impeccably. Sheets are fresh, the property is kept clean and any questions are answered promptly. Would definitely recommend as the location is only 5 minutes away from the City Centre as well!

A peaceful cottage with everything you need, and a lovely garden with sun deck - 10-15 min walk from the beautiful city.

Lovely little cottage like place, very clean and easy to figure out. Very close to the city centre, only a 10 min walk, and when the weather is nice, a lovely garden to relax in. Only slight issue was no parking and can be a struggle to find parking spaces, plus no vouchers were left for us. Make sure you remind the host. Otherwise had a lovely weekend, would go again and would recommend.

a great house very well located super recommend !

????????????????????????????????????????????

Very comfortable place. We were 2 couples with a young child. Very near the centre. Nice garden. Recommended.

The best place

5***** highly recommend. A home away from home. Thank you.

We had a lovely weekend in Canterbury, and this sweet little house is in a fairly easy location for reaching the key sights and shops in the centre of town. We came for the theatre and this property is about 20 minutes walk. We also enjoyed seeing the Cathedral. We got a free parking space right outside on the Friday evening and we didn't need to move the car until we went to Whitstable on our way home. Hungry on arrival, we found a number of restaurants within 10 minutes' walk. It is a very tiny house, and because of the weather we didn't get to make use of the garden, so we would have found another armchair or sofa useful, as there were four of us. This is a great place to sleep when you make the most of the opportunities around Canterbury, but not quite spacious or comfortable enough for relaxing indoors. Overall the facilities are excellent, but we felt the house let itself down a little with rather shabby decor. I wouldn't recommend the stairs to much older folk or small children, the banister doesn't go all the way up, and the treads are awkward, the landing is almost non-existent and access to the stairs is straight from one of the bedrooms. It's quaint, but not for anyone with mobility issues or small children you're not prepared to watch constantly. Not a criticism, but something future guests might want to take into account. I have always found it useful travelling with small children and with my elderly parents, when others give honest opinions. However we enjoyed our stay here and found the location its key asset. The beds were comfy and the house clean, and when you're sightseeing and theatre-going, that's all you need - all boxes ticked for us.

The host was very responsive and attentive. As promised, Barbara provided a travel cot for my infant daughter. There were fresh towels and coffee/tea waiting for us. The house is centrally located, easy 10 min walk to downtown Canterbury. The house did not have a half bath (only a toilet off the kitchen), which was the one reason we booked the house. Also, the carpets are old (some appeared as if they were not vacuumed). Finally, the carpeted stairs are very steep and difficult. I know steep stairs are expected in the general location. However, they did pose a concern for my elderly mother and myself when carrying my infant daughter up/down.

We’ve just had a truly brilliant and relaxing 3 night stay in lovely 22 Prospect Place over the hottest February weekend ever in Uk. Thanks to Barbara & team for responding promptly to our questions & queries about during our stay in the cottage. The bedrooms in the cottage are very comfortable and at top of steep boxed-in stairs next to the bathroom. The shower over bath has a good strong flow considering it’s not a power shower. The kitchen is well appointed (we like to cook) , and lounge and dining room cosy & comfortable. There are sunny spots in the garden throughout the day (our washing dried fast in the sun!) . Prospect Place is a tremendously convenient quiet location near to the city centre & food shopping, cafes, bars & restaurants, cinema & theatre. All easily walkable. Parking is like it is in most old cities so needs a bit of thought & organisation (Barbara was very helpful on this) . There’s some on-street parking (by permit) and other locations to park nearby.<br/>We were staying to walk parts of the pilgrim route. It’s easy to walk it by sections by taking the train from Canterbury West (around 15 minutes walk from the cottage) to stations such as Hollingbourne , Charing, Chatham on the route and walking back towards the city . The Coal Shed next to Canterbury West is an excellent fresh food market where you can stock up for your walk/ for meal at home. We had such a great visit and enjoyed exploring Canterbury - for example On Sunday we treated ourselves to the delightfully easy walk from Chartham to Canterbury and the pleasure of attending the glorious sung evensong on Sunday at the cathedral. And on Tuesday once we’d booked out from the cottage we took a punt tour on the River Stour for a beautiful perspective of the city. We really hope to visit again soon - thanks again to Barbara & team.

Nous avons passé un séjour très agréable chez Barbara. La maison est située dans une rue très calme, à 10 minutes à pied du centre ville. L'endroit est très propre et la literie confortable. Il est agréable de tout avoir sous la main pour cuisiner. <br/>Rien à redire sur ce logement !

Beautiful apartment. Really recommend staying here if coming to Canterbury or nearby.

House was lovely, has everything you need - great location, great host.

All the information given before the arrival was very useful. The cottage is lovely, host and location are excellent.

Lovely little cottage, well decorated, clean and with a nice garden; it's well located and very quiet.<br/>I highly recommend to follow Barbara suggestions' in term of restaurants.

I stayed in Barbara’s house for almost 30 days. It’s truly nice and convenient. Barbara’s house is 10 minutes walking distance from Canterbury East station. It’s quite convenient for those who are from London Victoria Station. A bus stop to the Canterbury bus station is just at the corner, and it is accessible to the nearby cities of Kent. And the city center is quite walkable. The kitchen is facing the backyard which makes the kitchen bright and it makes cooking more fun.

Lovely home in a quiet location close to the centre and nice decent sized garden. Great host, very quick in responding. The beds are comfortable and everything is very clean. Will definitely consider it in the future.

Very complete, entire house, with garden (which could need a little more care).<br/>Location convenient. Structure a little quirky at places. Liked it overall!

Une maison agréable et bien pensée notamment pour des enfants en bas âge : un escalier un peu raide mais avec une porte permettant de bloquer facilement l'accès. Il est agréable de profiter du jardin si on a la chance d'y séjourner par beau temps. La maison est bien placée, il est facile de se rendre dans le centre à pied. On y reviendrait volontiers !

We had an absolutely wonderful time staying in Barbara's stunning place in Canterbury. The place was spotless on arrival and was exactly as we expected from the online description. It really is a very cosy house with everything we needed for a romantic weekend away. The property is just a short walk from Canterbury so it is very easy to wander into the City to see the sights. Barbara was a great host - always quick to respond and happy to accommodate our late check-out request. We had a great time, and would definitely visit again (we got engaged while on this trip so it will always be a special place for us!)

This is a really nice house, very close to the centre

great, Barbara is very nice and easy to communicate.

Kesinlikle tavsiye ederim.?

Super séjour chez Barbara, belle maison familiale disposant de tout le nécessaire (cuisine, salle de bain, etc.). Le jardin est très agréable également. Entrée et départ facilités. A 5/10 minutes à pied du centre ville. Très bonne communication avec Barbara. Nous reviendrons!

Nice place,<br/>Barbara send us All the neccessary information to have a plaisant stay in the cottage. <br/>Thank's à lot<br/> See you soon....

My friend and I stayed in Barbara's home for a weekend away in Canterbury. The house is a quick five to ten minute walk into town, and a very easy walk from Canterbury West station. The house is comfortable with all necessary creature comforts accounted for. The kitchen is impressively well stocked. The garden was very lovely, and I'll just have to come back for longer/in the summer/with kids to make full use of that lovely space. A great stay, would recommend!

This cottage is the perfect place to stay for a vacation in Canterbury. All amenities listed were there as stated. The cottage was exceptionally clean and extremely well furnished with comfortable sofa and beds.<br/>The cottage is only about 7 minutes to the Canterbury East Railway station and the local bus stop just around the corner. <br/>If visitors do not have a car I recommend the purchase of a one week Megarider bus pass. With this pass one can travel the complete area around Canterbury including Dover, Folkstone, Whitstable. Herne etc. The buses are clean, on time and the drivers are excellent and courteous. We had a great stay.

Comfortable, roomy and we’ll equipped, just outside the bustle of downtown Canterbury, but an easy stroll in.

Gorgeous cottage, easy communication. Nice garden.

Excellent host, friendly and excellent communication throughout.

Barbara's cottage is even lovelier than it looks in the pictures. The garden is a peaceful haven as is the cottage generally. The location is perfect within easy walking distance of the city. And Barbara is a wonderful host. Highly, highly recommended. Thank you for a great stay.

La casa è carina e confortevole

Lovely place! Thank you for having us Barbara

Fantastic location, and the garden is a lovely asset.

A really lovely cottage close to central Canterbury. The courtyard and garden out the back was a real highlight on warm evenings!

Barbara's place was wonderful. We were near enough to town to run errands but far enough away to feel quiet and secluded. The layout was charming and perfect for two people. Spending the afternoon reading in the garden was a particular highlight - lots of space with beautiful flowers and good sunlight (weather permitting). Check-in and check-out were very independent, and Barbara's helpful, thorough instructions made everything a breeze. A really delightful place to spend our holiday.

Walking distance from the town centre, nice cosy rooms, small garden, clean and tidy, all you need for a nice stay in Canterbury / Kent!

Barbara's cottage was very near all that Canterbury had to offer. We'd definitely stay there again as it was convenient and reasonably priced. Four of us fit very nicely. Barbara's housekeeper is very sweet. We highly recommend the punt tour at the West Gate. Thank you Barbara!

We have just gotten home from two nights staying at Barbara's place in Canterbury. House is exactly as pictured/described. It has absolutely everything you could need for a stay and the high street and cathedral are a 10min walk away. Could have stayed for a week!

The cottage was perfect for our short visit to Canterbury. It's only a few minutes into the city on foot, very comfortable and it has everything you could think of for a trip to Canterbury! We were blessed with weather and enjoyed having our breakfast in the sunny garden!

Quant cottage with new bathroom and kitchen incl washing machine n clothes line in a pretty garden.

This place is cozy and within close walking distance into the town. This is one of the most comfortable beds I've ever slept in while traveling!

We enjoyed our time at the cottage and found everything was how we expected.

Barbara's apartment is perfectly located within walking distance to the centre. It is also well-equipped and clean and has a very cute garden. Communication with Barbara was also good - she explained everything clearly before the trip and when I needed to contact her during my stay, she also replied promptly.

If you come to Canterbury, stay with Barbara, great place, close to city center, and quiet at night. Very confortable we enjoyed our stay there.

Barbara was so lovely and helpful and her house is perfect for a little holiday, great location for walking to the centre and Waitrose just 5 mins walk away

A lovely little cottage, with everything you need for a week in Canterbury, including a pretty little garden which catches the sun. Great location, ten mins walk to town centre, and five minutes walk to Waitrose!

A stay at Barbara's cottage was a last minute thought as a weekend away from London and it was the perfect set up. The property is within 10 min walking distance of the hub of Canterbury but also in a quiet street with minimal noise.<br/>Barbara's quick responses and attention to detail made everything so easy for check in for the few days we were there. If you want a quaint cottage to stay in for checking out Canterbury then this comes thoroughly recommended. Would definitely stay here again.

Quite and tidy cottage in walking distance to all of Canterbury. Would stay again. Alan

A lovely place with 2 double bedrooms and a wonderful bathroom. Could easily sleep 4 people comfortably with a cosy living room to relax in too. The location is great; a nice quiet street with very close to the centre (less than a 10 minute walk). We'd definitely look to stay there again!

This place feels right out of a travel book. It is quaint, quirky with little things here and there that make us American tourists smile. There is a door that you can close to block off the upstairs making it like a little hide away, but then you walk into the upstairs bath and you feel like you are in a modern home in an upscale neighborhood. This house really adds to the UK experience and its location is great for experiencing Canterbury. If we come back through, we will be trying to book here again.

The property was exactly as advertised, very clean and in an excellent location within Canterbury. Barbara was a very attentive and informative host both pre and post booking - we would definitely stay again!

Barbara is very nice and the house is lovely. It's very close to the center of canterbury. A very nice place for a very nice stay!

We timed our walk to town, 6 mins 30 seconds, perfect location, house clean and comfortable. What else could you ask for!

We had an absolute amazing stay. Canterbury is a beautiful place and Barbara's beautiful cottage is near by, cosy and has all the necessities needed for a relaxed and enjoyable stay. Barbara is a wonderful and attentive host. Highly recommended.

This cute little house was perfect for what we wanted. Bedrooms were beautiful and there was more than enough space for us. A lovely kitchen and great facilities. Less than 10 minutes walk from the town centre it made our weekend. We will be coming back here again.

Barbara was the perfect host for a perfect house. The kitchen was well equipped, the bed was really comfortable, you're within 5 minutes walk of city centre, shops and public transport to the rest of Kent. Barbara is a fantastic host and really cares that you have a great stay in Canterbury. There is nothing bad to say about this property. Highly recommend.

This is a compact and cosy cottage for up to four people within walking distance of Canterbury centre. The hosts instructions for check-in were clear and comprehensive. Parking on the road outside the cottage is limited and subject to a residents voucher scheme after the first 4 hours. The owner will sell a voucher for £5 which is good value compared to the nearest car park (which is £1.60 an hour in daytime).<br/>The stairs to the bedrooms and bathroom are quite steep and narrow which is worth considering if any of your party have restricted mobility. <br/>We would happily stay with Barbara again.

Nice quiet location 10min walk from downtown. Can easily accomodate 4 people. Bus station 100 meters away. If you have luggage taxi is a better option.I would definitely suggest this accommodation.
