Canterbury's skyline is dominated by the stunning Cathedral, the oldest in England. But the cathedral is only part of the story; the ancient ruins of St Augustine's Abbey and St Martin's Church form Canterbury's UNESCO World Heritage Site while other ancient ruins such as the Castle are reminders of the city's history, heritage and culture. Although Canterbury is a place steeped in tradition it is also a modern and vibrant city. Luxury hotels, fine restaurants serving food from across the globe, pulsating nightclubs and welcoming pubs combine to give a complete experience.
For those who have a yearning for retail, Canterbury's array of shop windows beckon with a kaleidoscope of colours, inviting you to sample what's on offer. Many of the high street names are here as well as a delightful range of independent retailers. The King's Mile has an atmosphere all of its own while the city's St Dunstan's, West Gate Towers and Northgate areas have a range of specialist and individual outlets.
The East Kent countryside surrounds Canterbury and is a great backdrop for all manner of outdoor activities. From tours and tastings at award winning vineyards to windsurfing lessons of the Kentish coast. If you are after a bite to eat, there are a few good gastro pubs nestled in historic villages, or why let one of our chefs provide you with a gourmet picnic which you can enjoy in the country or by the sea.
Canterbury is a perfect destination for your special weekend away, with plenty to keep a group of friends occupied during the day; and a handful of very good options for some night time celebrations.
