Nice place, there is a £25 non-refundable damage deposit (not mentioned anywhere on their AirBnB bio)as the place is hosted by an agency, so be prepared for that. Communication isn’t the best but had an overall nice stay.

The bed was very comfortable and I managed to sleep well because of it. Only a 15 minute walk to the city centre, (or 5 minutes by bus).<br/><br/>Trays were very dirty upon arrival and despite my best efforts to clean and scrub them rigorously, the trays were still dirty so this resulted me having to eat out most nights .

The apartment was lovely, the facilities and location was great, about 15min from the town center. What was not up to par was the talks with the management group that takes care of the property. There was a 25£ hidden fee, a mandatory deposit that wasn't refundable and wasn't disclosed in the initial ad. Other than that, it's a great place.

This is a great little apartment for a stay in Canterbury. Walkable from town and a great little parking space which is rare in the city. It was very peaceful and I’d definitely stay again.

Lage, nah zum Zentrum<br/><br/>Sofa war unbequem, unter dem Sofa wurde nicht gereinigt. Fenster ließen sich schwer öffnen. Geringe Ausstattung in der Küche (z.B. keine Salatschüssel). Leider kein Platz für Babybeistellbett im Schlafzimmer.

Great flat in a good location. I stayed for 2 weeks on a work trip.<br/>Would definitely stay again. I was less impressed with Bluefox - i received lots of messages from them asking questions about check-in etc but when i contacted them about something (twice) i got no reply.

Jitendra

Very comfy beds includung the sofa bed. <br/>The whole flat was clean and tidy. <br/>It was like home from home. <br/>The town centre was a 15 minute walk. <br/>Beaches were only a 30 mins drive away. <br/>Finally the instructions were clear and easy to follow to get the keys and getting into the flat.<br/><br/>The instructions said what your parking bay was, but we found someone else had parked into that spot for most of the time we were there. The neighbour next door told us of another parking bay, but that was not really good enough, as the instructions say you can only park in a certain bay. I did complain to Blue Fox Rentals, but nothing happened. I am hoping this can be sorted out soon for future tenants.

a nice little apartment 15 mins walk from the centre, perfect for a couples weekend away.

Remko

Zeer rustige locatie, vrijwel geen verkeerslawaai, groen uitzicht, maar toch op loopafstand van het centrum. Gereserveerde parkeerplaats.<br/><br/>Badkamer rook ietwat muf, waarschijnlijk doordat een goede afvoer ontbrak. Deur openhouden hielp. Verder is het appartement aanzienlijk kleiner dan geadverteerd. Ik schat in dat het zo'n 40 m2 is i.p.v. 60. Ramen opendoen ging erg moeilijk. Om het appartementengebouw binnen te komen, waren gemiddeld 2 pogingen met de RFID sleutel nodig. Na boeking volgt een omslachtige identiteitscontrole, waarbij o.a. een foto van je paspoort verstuurd moet worden. Gelukkig kon ik de te fraude gevoelige elementen onleesbaar maken dankzij de KopieID app van de Nederlandse overheid.

Posizione comoda,, specie se si viaggia in macchina, e silenzioso. Appartamento piccolo ma con quasi tutto.<br/><br/>Pulizia, il bagno al nostro arrivo era sporco e abbiamo trovato altre cose in giro per casa. Abbiamo contattato la società sia telefonicamente che via mail e abbiamo ricevuto una semplice mail di scusa quando avevamo già lasciato l'appartamento per fine soggiorno.

Estuvimos muy cómodos y teníamos todo lo que necesitábamos. La<br/>zona muy tranquila y cerca del centro.<br/><br/>El sofá no es muy cómodo, pero es suficiente para unos pocos días.

Bernadette

29/06/2022

Self catering apartment was generally well equipped and good bedroom.<br/><br/>Most important in this time of heightened health awareness, do air the property before new clients, stale air and sticky windows evidenced that they been rarely opened. Arriving at an apartment, it's not for the client tot ensure a adequate turnover of fresh air before they unpack. Please supply a few small binbags, extra toilet roll and the all essential wine opener, a basic, annoying when not supplied for weary guests such as ourselves, arriving after shops shut.

Tracey

Very quiet location within easy (on the way down) walking distance of Canterbury. Good power shower. Good facilities. Nicely decorated. Good big soft towels<br/><br/>Low back sofa. Hard wooden base to the bed was easy to walk into. Hot tap in bathroom not marked

Nice clean apartment.<br/><br/>Would have been nice to have covers for pillows and quilt for the sofa bed.

We loved flat and it gave me and my boyfriend some much needed space, the flat is in such a good location and it is central to everything around it for the city centre.

The location was good<br/><br/>The pots and pans need replacing and the oven servicing. The bed protector is stained so needs throwing out and revealed hairs when we lifted the sheets on our last day! The floor under the sofa bed in the living room has what looks like years of debris. Not what you expect to see. The flat needs to be inspected from to time to ensure the cleaning is being done correctly. We have sent a full email with photographs separately explaining our concerns.

It is a great choice for family stay. The house is all equipped and clean and it is a happy and positive place.<br/><br/>everything was as per expectation or more. no complains

Claus

Cosy and nice appartment in quiet area, within walking distance to city centre and restaurants (15mins). A definite plus in Canterbury is the parking space.<br/>From my personal point of view not fully equipped, so check with landlord regarding things you need to bring (e.g. coffee maker, hair dryer).

Elizabeth

Bed was excellent and great nights sleep! Had all the essentials needed for a few days away and fully functioning kitchen.<br/><br/>Needs a little clean up for patched up holes and shaver plug in the bathroom to work.

Friendly and helpful staff and the flat has everything you need. It’s a bit outside Canterbury but a 15 minute stroll brings you to the top of the town. Bonus if you come by car as it comes with a parking space.

Good small apartment that is very practical and has all that you need to live comfortably. About a 10 mins walk into town, with a couple of convenience stores about 5-7 mins walk away. We enjoyed our stay, and would recommend.

Claire

I recently spent a week at the Nunnery fields apartment hosted by Blue fox.<br/>The apartment is kitted out pretty well with a full kitchen set up, including washer/dryer.<br/>The wifi works well - consistency and speed.<br/>The bed is extremely comfortable, and as the apartment block and area is quiet, you should sleep very well!<br/>Great towels (bath sheets) and bedroom linen were provided.<br/>Heating works well, noting that there is no radiator directly in the bedroom. This suited me as I prefer a cooler bedroom, but may not suit everyone.<br/>The apartment is about 15min walk from Canterbury East railway station, about 15min to nearest big shop (Sainsburys), and about 25min to "Old town", but there is a bus service to town 1 block away.<br/>It is located in a quiet suburb, and as a single women felt safe walking in the area.<br/>While it is advertised as such, a reminder that the apartment has a shower over bath, and is located on the first floor with no lift (that I could find), so people who have mobility deficits may struggle.<br/>Excellent communication with Blue Fox, both before and during my stay.<br/>Overall a peaceful and comfortable stay.

Great Location, close to city centre, if using public transport just at the bottom of the road, clean, quiet, bed comfortable and the pullout one as well, in general a great stay, would definitely recommend. On-site parking a bonus

Robert

Great place. Clean and tidy.<br/>Perfect for a getaway or even a longer stay as the place is warm, everything works as it should and a very welcoming and cozy flat with its own personality. <br/>The team got in touch and always made sure I'm okay and I have everything I need as well as if there are any issues.<br/>Recommending this place.<br/>Good day all!

Central location. Quiet and convenient.<br/><br/>Recycling shed on site overflowing. Obviously that one hadn't been collected,but others had. Platform style bed led to lots of bruised legs. Bathroom fan not working and two lights out. Also one dining chair broken and dangerous.

We live locally but had to move out of our house for a few days for emergency works and found this flat close by. Our booking was accepted quickly and we moved in the same day. <br/>The details for check-in were clear and helpful. The flat was clean and well equipped. I slept on the sofa bed which was large and very comfortable. The building itself is quiet and safe and the centre of town a short walk away so very convenient. <br/>It would be a perfect place to stay for anyone visiting Canterbury. Highly recommend.

Louise

02/07/2021

Could be lovely but many aspects incomplete. Was called while driving , offer of a call later never happened.<br/>Confusing arrangement re lockbox, found key but no parking permit. Also found assigned parking space used by someone else. Bedding for sofa bed had no bed-linen [apparently I could have phoned at 11pm and someone would have come with bedlinen] and there was a badly stained small blanket with the uncovered duvet and pillows. Potentially good little apartment but Blue Fox needs to micro manage the cleaners. Beware the disposal of general waste. Area over-flowing with masses of very smelly foods !

Paula

Great little flat and well positioned for town. Very comfortable. Would recommend although a smart tv ( particularly when in lockdown) would be a good investment. Disappointed the parking space was occupied on arrival as parking was a particular reason for selecting this flat

Mia

05/10/2020

Overall stay was great. Lovely little flat , clean and modern. Very good shower. Only issues we faced were the fact that a car was parked in our assigned parking bay(quick response from blue fox) and the lockbox took us a while to get open which made the checking in process a little less enjoyable. Overall a good place to stay

Charlotte

02/10/2020

This is a lovely, clean but definitely 'cosy' flat, perfect for a few nights for two. Kitchen is fully equipped, really comfy bed and water pressure is fab! It is a little further from town than you think but still easy walking distance and fantastic value for a whole place and parking!

Amani

30/09/2020

Great place! About a 10-15 minute walk to Canterbury city centre. Was very clean and tidy when we arrived. The washing machine was a little confusing at first but eventually we figured it out. Definitely will stay here again!

Hannah

14/09/2020

Great location, good communication from host and a decent place to stay for a few nights.<br/>Only downfalls are that the TV was not actually a smart TV although it is stated in the description and on arrival the beds were unmade and washing up left in the side.<br/>Only minor things but would’ve made the difference.

Sarah

The place is really nice and as advertised. It is very close to town and a nice area.<br/> There was some miscommunication but I was able to speak to the manager and come to some resolution . Points I did raise appeared to he taken on board. I was also refunded £20.

Tishaynie

The property was not prepared for our stay. There were crumbs and sticky residue on the hob and around the kitchen and living area. Hairs in the bathroom around the bath and sink and a few hairs on the sofa. General dust around the property. <br/>When I tried to contact them about my issues using an emergency number they took an hour or more to get back to me. After the initial complaint they stopped responding to my messages and calls. I had to contact air bnb.<br/>Not their fault but there was also a car parked in the allocated parking space. <br/>I didn’t not stay at the property after the cleanliness issues

Suzanne

We loved our week at this apartment. It was in a perfect location for our needs and had everything that we needed to make our stay comfortable. Unfortunately, the dishwasher and washing machine were not working but the host informed us before arrival and liaised with us during the week to try to rectify the issue. When the issue wasn't able to be fixed during our visit, they happily provided a partial refund. Communication was great throughout. I would thoroughly recommend this lovely little apartment, and we would definitely return.

The apartment was perfect for a few days away in Canterbury. A 15/20 minute walk into the centre, in a lovely quiet residential area. The apartment was clean, well presented and comfortable with all the amenities that you could need. The communication before arriving, for accessing the apartment, during my stay and post stay was exceptional. I would definitely stay here again on another visit to Canterbury.

If you follow the directions the host gives you, it is easy to find this place and it is well-situated in Canterbury to get to many places of interest. The apartment is cozy and comfortable. We felt very safe and at home in this AirBnB. I was even able to record an episode of my podcast there!
