An Exquisite Cottage With A Super Host

"Perfect" is the only way we can describe our 4 week stay at Gingerbread Cottage. The layout and design of the cottage offered great lighting and comfort throughout, and easy access to the garden via a large glass sliding door. The cottage was immaculate and the large walk-in shower was totally luxurious. Location to everywhere in Canterbury was about a 15 minute walk. Barbra is a wonderful person and a Super Host who made sure we had everything we needed including helpful instructions and suggestions which made our stay uncomplicated and most enjoyable. These superlatives just don't feel adequate in describing our experience. We plan to book at least 6 weeks next year and Gingerbread Cottage is one of the reasons we're coming back to Canterbury.
