This guesthouse is situated in a quiet side street near the centre of Canterbury. It is a small institution in a charming townhouse with only 7 guestrooms. It is very tastefully decorated with a mixture of period original features, antiques and modern art. We were greeted by Alison, the proprietor, who was very friendly and helpful and explained the ins... more

Perfect situation, SatNav by postcode took us to door, unloaded bags on double yellow lines, then parked (£5 for 24 hours with voucher from host) 75 m away. Nothing to add from previous reviews, except our room had largely been upgraded, and included secondary double glazing, so no noise at all! Fine room, full breakfast (I could not eat it... more

I usually avoid booking B&Bs in preference of hotels, however I was glad of my choice to book the White House on this occasion. Alison and Gary are excellent hosts, and from the initial booking communication through to check-out they were very accommodating. My partner and I stayed here to attend a wedding in nearby Petham. We had the four... more

We really enjoyed our short stay at the White House. It's in a very convenient location, close to the high street, but far enough to be without the noise. Our room was clean, very comfortable, and cozy. Breakfast was great, English Breakfast. The staff is very polite and ready to offer assistance. Definitley recommend it! more

We stayed with our relatively infirm parents for 2 nights over a weekend in April 2008. The owners were very helpful and engaging, the rooms and beds were good, breakfast was lovely. We were given excellent restaurant recommendations. We had 3 rooms: some were newly decorated (one white/silver was interesting or bizzare depending on your viewpoint), one was still to... more

We had a lovely time at the White House. The house itself is stunning, and in a great location. We were treating my parents for their anniverary, and when Gary and Alison (owners) found out, they left a lovely box of chocs and a card on my parents bed. They were really helpful - gave advice on what to do... more

I stayed at The White House B&B in Canterbury for four days. Let me tell you - it's a beautiful little gem right off the high street in Canterbury. The owners of the establishment are genuinely warm and welcoming - the place is absolutely spotless, and the breakfast is varied, filling, and superbly prepared. The only, ONLY, thing that is... more
