JackUnited KingdomLovely room, brilliant hosts, great location... sad to have not stayed longer!
Really lovely room in a good location, 5 minute walk from Canterbury West and the city centre. Room is in Roger & Irina's home however they ensure that you feel welcome and not at all like you're imposing on their home.…
