Preston is located just outside of the historic and very pretty city of Canterbury, renowned for its cathedral, city walls, and general beauty! The beach isn’t far either if guests wanted to mix up their holiday and visit Ramsgate, Broadstairs, or Margate for long stretches of golden sands and traditional fish and chips.

Canterbury, a cathedral city in southeast England, was a pilgrimage site in the Middle Ages. Ancient walls, originally built by the Romans, encircle its medieval centre with cobbled streets and timber-framed houses.
Canterbury Cathedral, founded in 597 A.D., is the headquarters of the Church of England and Anglican Communion, incorporating Gothic and Romanesque elements in its stone carvings and stained-glass windows. Visit Canterbury and discover why this beautiful, ancient city is one of the jewels in Kent’s crown. The historic city is less than an hour from London by train, and just 10 minutes from some of Kent’s beautiful beaches, it is the perfect city break for anyone in the mood for gorgeous medieval streets, great food and drink, and cultural getaways.

We really enjoyed Oast View and would go again . The only minor quibble was , first impressions count a lot and the exterior isn’t very attractive which is the way the building is and that’s okay but it would be improved by the dead planters outside being re planted or moved , generally a bit scruffy . When we arrived it had been a hot day and it was stifling , some open windows would have been good . It would have been nice to find milk n the fridge and maybe a couple of treats as there usually is I reiterate that we would return , these issues didn’t really affect our holiday .

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. We had an issue with the heating, when we telephoned the host they attended within minutes. The location, whilst remote, wasn't a problem, we were able to reach all places we wanted to visit within 20mins.The property was also well stocked with books and toys. We had a lovely peaceful stay.
