What a wonderful bed and breakfast! Heidi was such a sweat heart, after we arrived with our luggage and clothes drenched wet from a leaky trunk in our convertible, she washed and dried them ready for us in the am! Paul kindly covered our car when it started to rain and we were touring the town. Sensational breakfast and clean well appointed room. Thank you, Heidi and Paul!

Very handy location within easy walking distance of the city centre. We stayed in room 6 which was the cosy room (loft area), the bed was very comfy and room clean having a safe and fridge inside. Plenty of tea, coffee etc condiments with biscuits. You choose your breakfast requirements the night before and it is great quality with various other options to have. Secure parking on-site. John and Heidi were very friendly and welcoming.

This is what you expect from an English B&B. Beautiful room, comfortable bed and great breakfast. Paul was a wonderful host who was very helpful, Great position for a walk into town past historical buildings and along the river (15 min). Both Harriet House and Canterbury are highly recommended.

Paul and Heidi were very friendly and welcoming hosts, and when I arrived after tea time they helpfully provided some good suggestions of places nearby where I could grab something to eat. The room and en-suite were very comfortable and clean, and there were some thoughtful items placed in the room, such as a coaster on the bedside table and fresh milk in the fridge, little things that made a difference and were much appreciated! Breakfast was lovely and really set me up for the rest of the day, definitely recommend the pancakes!
