This is a wonderful place to stay. What makes the difference is that in a city like Canterbury, where parking is difficult, there is free off street parking. Also as we were a party of three adults, they have a double and single room at the top of the house with a shared bathroom. And the tariff reflects that there... More

I stayed 4 nights at Harriet House and I would highly recommend it. Very clean and tidy. I can't fault it at all. There is ample parking. The breakfasts are excellent. My room was very clean and had everything you would need, TV, tea and coffee etc. Also very quiet. Very pleasant welcome and helpful owners. Excellent location for Canterbury... More

We spent two nights and we enjoyed the very friendly service and wonderful breakfasts. The room was very clean and comfortable. Harriet House is a nice short walk to the center of town. We live in the States and we found the place via their website. We found their directions accurate. If we return to Canterbury we will return here. More

It was lovely to meet you. We are glad you found our driving directions easy. Upon booking (by phone or via our website) we always send a confirmation email with directions and arrival details etc. Most of our guests print this out to make their journeys easier. More

It is always a pleasure to meet such lovely people. Our single ensuite rooms are always popular and offer the same facilities as all our other rooms. We are glad you enjoyed our breakfast. All our eggs are from a local farm and our bacon is delivered regularly from a local award winning butcher. We also make all our own... More

We have been staying in Harriet House with five persons and we enjoyed the friendly atmosphere, the very clean rooms, the excellent breakfast and the near to the town centre. Very helpful was the description on the website how to find Harriet House by car. The friendly service convinced us to stay there again another time visiting Kent. More

Thank you for your kind review. All our beds are good quality hotel beds and have recently been renewed along with all of the bedroom furniture. Our breakfast room was also redecorated earlier this year. Guide books are essential for planning trips but we like to suggest local places and attractions that we enjoy too. Always happy to help !!

Great, helpful service from the owners. The house is nicely refurbished. The bathroom was a bit small, but not unusual for this type of B & B. It was clean and fresh. The location is out of the way of tourists, but not an inconvenient walk to the cathedral and other spots in the city centre. Thanks! More
