ACCESSABILITY
Our cottage and Canterbury is a wonderful place to stay for all generations. However, please note that as it is an older cottage the stairs are fairly narrow, fairly steep and have a tight bend. Please take care when using them. With regret, due to the age of the property and that it is within the Cathedral conservation area, we are unable to make sufficient changes to the property to make it fully accessible and it would not be suitable for those with significant mobility issues.

If you are in any doubt and would like more information about the property then please do give us a call or message us and will be very happy to try to help.
