Cornerways by Bloom Stays - family home in City centre, ideal for exploring Canterbury

We really like being here and hope to come back, soon! It's a very local place, but quiet an tidy. We always feel like being home. Thanks for having us here!

You couldn’t ask for a better location! Right next to the gorgeous Westgate Gardens, perfect for a stroll, play area for the children, long walks with the dogs and even a spot of punting. Easy walk to restaurants and shops, didn’t need to use the car at all, meant we could all enjoy a drink and relax. The accommodation was very easy to access on arrival day, the house is very clean and well organised if a little small. Great to have garden access for the dogs and very easy parking. The beds however were far too small for two adults sharing so we ended up sleeping with one child each room. Bed was comfortable enough, just too small. Granddad slept on the single bed which was very rickety and uncomfortable. Kitchen was good, clean. We didn’t do any cooking but it was nice to see there was tea, coffee and sugar available. I think it was very expensive for the house it’s self, but we were obviously paying for location and a space for the dogs (extra charge of £35 per day!).

It was our second time we’ve spent in Cornerways. The house is perfect located to visit Canterbury and the surroundings as well as London. It is located in a very quiet area of Canterbury directly to Westgate Gardens. The kitchen is really well equipped, the Bedrooms has enough space for up to 5 people and the living room has been improved with a new sofa and TV. The only thing what maybe could be improved in the house is the bathroom. For my father (83 years) it was difficult to have a shower in the bathtub. The garden of the house is really beautiful and we loved to have a rest on the nice terrace.

We had a wonderful stay in this house, perfectly located just a 5-minute walk from Canterbury city centre, through the beautiful Westgate Gardens. Parking was very easy, and finding the keys on arrival was simple thanks to the small lockbox. The house was spotless and truly felt like a peaceful haven. The only area for improvement would be to replace the sofas, which are quite low and not very comfortable, as well as the beds. Other than that, everything was absolutely perfect. The customer service was also excellent, with helpful messages sent after our arrival and before our departure, providing us with key information.

We‘ ve spent two weeks in Canterbury as Family. The house is very nice and clean. The kitchen is really well equipped. The garden and Terrace are awesome. For Germans the beds were a little bit small, but everything works at the end . We‘ve felt very comfortable and looking forward to our next stay in Canterbury.

We love the location of the property - with Westgate Gardens and river just behind, able to do Cathedral grounds walks, go to the shops and cafes in city centre on foot. Whitehall bridge road area feels very safe. Proximity to the Canterbury West Station allows family members to join from London and leave conveniently. The house is very clean; beds are comfortable; Kitchen is well equipped : appliances, utensils, pots and pans sufficient for cooking. It is quiet in the evening and not hot despite warm days. Improvements - wifi speed can be better - not sufficient for normal online internet browsing for information for a household of five. Hooks in the bathroom for hanging clothes would be helpful. Higher thread count and larger bath towels + an extra smaller towel per person for 7 days’ use please. Thicker bath mat too (or quick drying ones), considering there are five adults sharing one bathroom. Hand towels for bathroom and toilet needed. Finally, please replace the awfully low sofa facing the TV. It is too low and uncomfortable! A house for five doesn’t mean only five spaces in the living room. It can be more generous than that. We were fortunate to enjoy sunny dry weather outdoor that week. If we were stuck indoor in the evenings it would have been miserable. All in all we were very satisfied with the property. Suggestions made hopefully are justifiable and for the comfort of future guests.

We enjoyed a wonderful 4 days at Cornerways over the Easter break. The house is cosy, clean and tidy. The location is superb for exploring Canterbury - we will be back! X

Great location, walking distance to local transport and shops. Fully equipped for a comfortable stay.

We liked all about the place, you find everything you need for a long stay, well arranged. The back yard and front was nicely landscaped. There's a large beautiful park next to the property and only a few minutes walk to the city center. BloomStay and Elizabeth were super helful!!!

The house is very conveniently located and gives excellent access to both central Canterbury and the riverside footpath leading out of the city. The house is well maintained and very easy to stay in, but the furnishings (sofas, chairs and table) and decor could do with updating. It was very clean on arrival.
