Just six minutes from Canterbury city centre and ten minutes from Whitstable seafront, Daweswood Guest Suite is a flagship country retreat designed with you in mind. Does drifting to sleep whilst reading a book in the garden room hammock sound like perfection? How about Prosecco tasting in the hot tub, or cooking a family feast on the BBQ? See Extra Notes for details on upgrades including hot tub (£48), bbq, early check-in, late check-out etc. Nestled in beautifully mature grounds that are steeped in medieval and World War II history, Daweswood perfectly marries traditional country cottage charm with the luxury of ultra modern living. The gardens are adorned with bluebells during the Spring, and are dotted with blossoming English fruit trees and even a magnificent tulip tree that provides dappled shade to the duck pond below. Mallards, moorhens, mandarin ducks, and even kingfishers call the tranquility of the pond their home, whilst rabbits, squirrels, woodpeckers and pheasants forage for food next to the hand-pumped well across a footbridge from the site of a medieval tile kiln. Whilst the house and outbuildings were garrisoned by soldiers during World War II, some of the famous stained glass windows from Canterbury Cathedral were once buried beneath the front gardens for protection from German bombing raids. Note that the front and rear gardens are not fenced so children and pets must be supervised at all times as there is a pond and a road that can be accessed. Allow dogs off their lead at your own risk! The property has been extensively refurbished to cater for the needs of holiday-makers whether they be families or groups of friends, and provides some large entertaining spaces including: \- A sun-drenched garden room overlooking the pond with a comfortable hammock, dining table, seating area, electric roof windows, ceiling fans and bluetooth/wifi/radio speaker. \- A huge sun terrace with a dining table and chairs, brick-built charcoal BBQ and 8-seater hot tub with in-built bluetooth speaker system. Hot tub and BBQ charge applies, see extra notes below. \- Country kitchen fully equipped and features a breakfast bar, television area, oven, hob, microwave, washer/dryer, fridge/freezer, bluetooth/wifi/radio speaker and single sofa-bed seating. There is a king bedroom, a twin bedroom and a large bathroom. The bathroom features a heated floor, heated towel radiator, illuminated & anti-steam heated mirror, luxurious environment-friendly toiletries and plenty of towels. Both bedrooms include hairdryers with diffusers, televisions, blackout blinds/curtains, plenty of coat-hangers, and all windows, wireless and usb charging points, lockable doors, cooling fans, and all internal walls and ceilings are acoustically insulated for a perfect night sleep! If there are 5 guests then please bring a sleeping bag and towels for the single sofa bed as no linens are provided for it. Blankets and cushions are available. The property benefits from a dedicated high-speed fibre optic Internet line with WiFi throughout including the rear garden, commercial-grade fire detection, a carbon monoxide detector, fire extinguisher & a blanket, first aid kit and a state of the art security system including external CCTV for your peace of mind.

Just send me a message :) Located in East Kent, known as the 'garden of England' and only six minutes from Canterbury city centre and ten minutes from the Whitstable coast by car, Tyler Hill is a beautiful but well-connected rural hamlet on the outskirts of Canterbury. Tyler Hill is so named after the medieval tile production in the area and in fact a circa 700 year old tile kiln sits within the grounds of Daweswood. Just down the road from Daweswood is the multi-award winning The Tyler's Kiln pub & restaurant. The well-stocked bar is dominated by a huge brick built kiln fireplace featuring roaring open fires, and upstairs there is a a private dining room for up to 10 people, as well as a cosy snug for up to 15\. The beautiful all-weather heated beer garden includes a walk-way over a well stocked pond which is 'rained' into by an stunning copper tree water sculpture. The Tyler's Kiln has won accolades including Food & Drink Awards Kent Pub of the Year and most recently CAMRA Pub of the Year in 2019. Daweswood is located along Hackington road, providing easy access to both Whitstable and Canterbury. A bus service runs from near the local pub 'The Tyler's Kiln' and runs to Kent University, Canterbury city centre, Whitstable and Chestfield. Canterbury is reachable in only 56 minutes from London by high speed train into Canterbury West station. Taxis from the train station to Daweswood cost between £6 and £9.50 dependent on time of day and size of vehicle. A grass Helipad is available for use next to the property at no charge.
