Riverview

This gorgeous riverside escape is brimming with storybook charm, creating a wonderful base for a getaway in historic Canterbury with friends or family. The three-bed retreat is around 2 miles from the centre of town, with the River Stour flowing just below the deck and countryside paths right on the doorstep.

Take peaceful riverside wanders or sip a leisurely coffee overlooking the water. Canterbury’s irresistible blend of culture, history and dining awaits, from its world-famous cathedral and atmospheric medieval lanes to a fantastic choice of restaurants, bars and independent shops.

For adventures further afield, jump on a train at Canterbury West train station (3 miles) for easy links to the Kent Coast. Walkers and cyclists will adore the wide, open landscapes of the Kent Downs National Landscape (4 miles).

Iconic attractions such as the White Cliffs of Dover (17.5 miles) and Leeds Castle (21 miles) are wonderful options. Step inside and you’re met with a gorgeous living space with stylish flooring, a beautifully curated décor and plush sofas.

Bi-fold doors stretch across the rear wall, framing those pretty river views. The sleek kitchen has everything you need for preparing cooked breakfast and delicious dinners, to be enjoyed in the stylish dining area.

When it’s time to unwind, the bedrooms provide beautiful comfort with sumptuous linens, ample storage and their own Smart TVs. The lounge and two main bedrooms benefit from air-conditioning.

The contemporary shower room is a treat in itself, complete with a rainfall shower. Doors from the main living space open directly onto the raised decked terrace, where you can sip your morning cuppa or head to the loungers to relax in the sunshine and watch the river go by.

This space is wonderful for al fresco dining and dreamy evenings, having a soak in the hot tub. You’ll also have private parking for two cars.
