The house

St Radigunds House has exposed beams, traditional sash windows, wooden furniture and dark soft furnishings. Guests have access to the full property and a private courtyard.

The open-plan living and dining room has a statement fireplace surrounded by armchairs, with a dining table and four chairs at the rear. The self-catering kitchen includes an oven, hob, microwave, kettle, toaster, fridge and cookware. A desk, bed linens and a carbon monoxide detector are also provided.

Stairs lead to the first-floor bedroom, which has a double bed, wardrobe, chest of drawers and full-length mirror. The family bathroom is on the same floor and has a large walk-in shower, WC and basin in a vanity unit. The second bedroom is on the second floor, with a sloped ceiling and beams. Both bedrooms have premium bed linens and plush bedding.

The cottage is in Canterbury's medieval walled city. Canterbury West railway station is a 10-minute walk away, and a nearby bus stop serves the University of Kent, Whitstable, Herne Bay and Margate. Whitstable is a 20-minute drive away; Ashford, Broadstairs, Dover and Margate can be reached by car in under 45 minutes.
