We have just come back from a four day break in Canterbury and stayed at the Harriet House B&B. From the moment we were met at the door by Heidi with a warm and welcoming smile who took us to our room we felt completely at home. The room was warm, exceptionally clean and the beds were amazing we both slept very well and woke up refreshed. The tea and coffee facilities were plentiful with extras such as biscuits, hot chocolate, fresh filtered water and a coffee machine and you could help yourself to any additional items you needed. When it comes to the breakfast we have to say it was the best in any place we have stayed in. Paul the Owner cooks it fresh to order with first class bacon and sausages, fresh mushrooms, roasted cherry tomatoes and beans. There are other hot breakfast choices available as well. There is also a cold buffet available with cereal, pastries, fruit and yogurt. We would not hesitate to recommend Harriet House to Family and Friends and cannot wait to stay with Paul and Heidi again next year.

There is nothing at all we did not like and we cannot think of any improvements that would be necessary, the B&B in our humble opinion is perfect just the way it is.

After parking in the secure car park We were warmly welcomed by Heidi and shown to the delightful Peacock room. A lovely modern, spacious, beautifuly decorated room. With a large spotless en suite shower. Heidi familiarised us with all the details that would make our stay comfortable. We met (Chef)Paul at breakfast the next morning. Another warm friendly greeting. The breakfast is freshly cooked with a lots of tasty choices. Especially the pancakes. Heidi and Paul are excellent hosts for their lovely bed and breakfast. Every thing has been thought of. We had a fun friendly five day stay. We hope to return.

It's very close to the main attractions via a gorgeous riverside walk, and there's a Sainsbury's nearby if you need to grab something. Heidi and Paul are wonderful hosts, and they do everything in their power to make your stay enjoyable. The little touches - such as the filtered water, the map provided and even the vegan cream for me - made it even more charming. The room had everything one could need. The breakfast was excellent, and they cater to different dietary options, so everyone is welcome. Thank you so much once again for this lovely stay, it was nice meeting you both!

The hosts, Heidi and Paul, were lovely and provided good advance information and a warm greeting when we arrived. The whole house is immaculately decorated and spotlessly clean with an easy to use door entry system so you can come and go as you please. Flasks of fresh filtered water were available for the room in unlimited quantity which was a nice touch, as was the provision of a small safe for valuables in the room. The breakfasts were freshly prepared to order, consisted of high-quality ingredients and were generous in size - definitely no skimping! The car park is small but gated at night, so book your place in advance and rest easy.

We were on the top floor which I suspect could get rather warm in hotter weather and the ceiling in our room sloped down quite low over one side of the bed. You don't need a hard hat, but you do need to be very careful to avoid banging your head.

This was such a lovely place to stay for 2 nights. I had the single room but there was plenty of space and the bed was really comfortable. I was greeted warmly on arrival and at breakfast each morning. I liked that you could choose beforehand the time you would like breakfast (from 8 to 9am) and then the breakfast was cooked fresh for that time. The breakfast was delicious.

Only thing I can say is that floorboards were squeaky and you could hear the movements of people next door...but I'm also a light sleeper so that doesn't help. The bed and the room was lovely though.

Located away from the hustle and bustle of the city centre yet within easy reach, just a 10 mins walk. It has its own parking area which is kept secure at night, as gates are kept closed . The property is well maintained and kept clean.

There is a very busy road at the front and can be noisy. However the double glazing helps. During the very warm night had to keep the window open ( even with the fan on) and obviously were disturbed by traffic noise. Some people might not be bothered by this as not everyone is a light sleeper.

The hosts are wonderful and care about their guests. There are many little extras, like chocolates and filtered water, towel heating racks, tea kettle, fridge, as well as information about the area and dining suggestions. The room was very comfortable. I choose a small twin bed room which is perfect for a solo traveler. The breakfast offered was generous and delicious! I enjoyed eating breakfast in the sun room and watching the goings on at the park across the street. If I return to Canterbury, I will be returning to this property!

The location is not "central" to all of the sights but it certainly is a short walk to see attractions and the train station (10-15 minutes to Canterbury West or Canterbury Cathedral) AND it was nice and quiet. If you don't mind walking a kilometer or two the location is great! Plus the walk to the Cathedral takes you through the town and there's plenty to see along the way.

Everything was perfect really - the owners were very welcoming and made sure I had everything I needed, without being remotely intrusive (I say this as a socially anxious person who is sometimes a bit nervous about staying in B & Bs due to the social aspect of being one someone's home). The breakfast was delicious, the room was very comfortable and had nice touches e.g. a nice selection of teas and some biscuits. Organisation was excellent, everything was straightforward and easy. It really couldn't have been better!

There is really nothing negative to say, everything was perfect :)

Hosts were incredibly friendly, put on a fantastic breakfast and have maintained a very welcoming and comfortable B&B. The facilities are clean, modern and there were plenty of bathroom amenities and provisions for the room to make you feel at home.

I wish there was a lounge room or common room where you could relax in a chair that isn't your room. I had the bedroom with a single bed which was quite small in size so found it hard to unwind. Depending how busy the house is, you might find the creaky floorboards quite loud at night or early morning if someone's staying in the room above you. Didn't bother me because I was very tired but would bring ear plugs if you're a light sleeper.

The hosts were amazing and the breakfast excellent. Short walk into town made it perfect for us Lovely clean house and a nice breakfast area Would stay again

Our faults really We booked a small double but hadn't looked closely at the room. The sloping ceiling was slightly inconvenient for my 6ft husband so just suggest anyone booking checks. If you want to watch TV in bed only one of you can see properly but that didn't bother us. Dont let this put you off though as its a great place to stay.
