About this house rental
Take it easy at this unique and tranquil getaway, which blends historic charm with modern conveniences. The Monk’s Retreat is a small but perfectly formed 200-year-old home within the historic city walls of Canterbury. A hidden gem of petite proportions from a bygone era (but with a king-sized bed!). Situated a stone’s throw away from the lovely Dane John Gardens and a short walk into the City Centre for everything you need.
We offer the very highest of standards and quality, adhering to stringent cleaning measures with hotel quality linens, fresh towels, self check-in and 24/7 Guest support.
This cosy space is ideal for a stay when looking for a place in the City. The Monk’s Retreat is a secluded cottage minutes away from the City Centre, so close you have views of the Cathedral towers! The home has been recently renovated to a high standard and has everything you need to have an enjoyable stay. The stunning Dane John Gardens are round the corner and all the attractions of the City are just minutes away.
When entering the property you will see the kitchen; this compact space on the ground floor is equipped with cooking utensils, crockery and everything you will need during your stay, also including a small dining table with two chairs. Through the kitchen you can access the bathroom, which includes a toilet, sink and a good-sized shower.
Upstairs is the open-plan bedroom. This room includes a lovely king-sized bed, which can be separated into two single beds upon request. The bedroom also includes a table with a dining sofa, a TV, a small mirror on the table and a full-length mirror on the wall. Lastly, in the bedroom you will find a Monk’s Habit, making the name The Monk’s Retreat come to life!
Please note, the property is not suitable for young children (under 6 years of age). There is no high chair available or space for a travel cot. Additionally, the bedroom is located up an open staircase without a stair gate, so the property is not child-friendly.
This house is solely for the use of the guests.

Parking was not clear and arriving at night made the location impossible to find. Once we found it the location was great. Unit was just a little small for two people but it was nice.
