We traveled to Canterbury with no idea where to stay. Ersham Lodge was recommended by the Tourist Office and it was perfect. Elaine and David went out of their way to make sure we were comfortable and everything was working. We were served an English Breakfast and we feel that they made the visit to Canterbury extra special. more

Our family stayed for 1 night at Ersham Lodge. It was for an extra special occasion that turned out to be well - organised. Elaine (owner) was extremely helpful and accomodating right from the beginning (from booking) to the end of our stay. Her advice on booking evening meal for our large group was well appreciated as well. Veg cooked... more

Extremely pleasant stay in Canterbury. The staff (owner and wife) could not do enough for us and went out of their way to make our stay as comfortable as possible. The front room (complete with four poster) was great. more

A shower, vanity and toilet in the space normally used to hang up a coat. Breakfast was nice though -... more

We spent 20 mins in our wedding regalia (a very heavy dress) on the doorstep ringing the nightbell (my husband was told he didn't need to take his key) and the next morning the rudeness of Elaine (the owner) astounded me and upset... more

For those looking for a home away from home while in Canterbury please consider Ersham Lodge. We were provided very nice rooms, an excellent breakfast, and informed advice during our recent stay. All e-mail contacts were handled expeditiously and they even helped us tremendously with our airport transfers. The location can not be beat, five minutes and you are in... more

Only last week we again visited the excellent Ersham Lodge Hotel only to find out that we were some of the last guests to stay with the owners Sheila and Steve.
