Family-friendly vacation rentals in Canterbury

Absolutely great place,it does look 100% way better then what you see in pictures Literally you can get there the most peaceful getaway ,we already recommended this place to friends and we will definitely use this place again Worth for the price 100%.

We have spent half term at Lisa’s place, the house is very spacious, located in quiet residential area, about 10 minutes walk from the train station and 25-30 from the town centre which was exactly what we wanted. Lovely large property for our group of 9, we love the gym and hot tub plus a basket of goodies on arrival was an unexpected touch. We had a great stay and was so lucky with the weather too, did lots of small trips with kids so train station nearly was very handy. Would definitely recommend it.

Aidan & Wendy were perfect hosts. We had an amazing relaxing time despite walking 18.2k along the stunning coastline! The barn was the perfect place to retreat to. Aidan was super helpful and welcoming when we arrived and it was a pleasure to stay with them. I have already recommended them to a friend 🙌🏻

Such a lovely place and very private with gorgeous views and fields around, would definitely come back in the future

We had a lovely week in Plantagenet and really cannot recommend it enough; the cottage really exceeded our expectations. The garden is phenomenal. It was a private and tranquil escape and our collie thoroughly enjoyed doing laps of the large garden despite the rainy weather. We loved it from the moment we arrived and didn't want to leave. The cottage is well equipped, has a great cosy ambiance with lots of indoor and outdoor game options no matter what the weather. The communication with Tim&Maite was friendly and responsive, we particularly appreciated the slightly late check out. We are hoping to book again soon with more of our family joining us.

The view and access to the beach was lovely.

Had a two night stay in 'The Dairy'. Lovely place. Clean, tidy and had everything we needed. Great views from the hot tub (enjoyed watching the local horses rolling in the morning!) Straight forward check in with no problems. Only suggestion would be a hook or two in the bathroom - there wasnt much space for toothbrushes/wash bag for 4 people. But really cant fault it. Would recommend. Thanks.

Excellent family home in a quiet village near Dover. A great place to explore and good homebase for exploration. Claire's place was just as advertised and worked out very well for my family. 5/5 would definitely recommend.

We had a fantastic stay at Sophie’s home. Communication was excellent from the start, and was really flexible and accommodating. The home is exactly as shown online, if not even better! It was warm, cosy, and full of lovely personal touches that made it feel really special. The stairs are quite steep, but we just took them slowly nothing unmanageable for adults. It was the perfect base for a relaxing break, with easy routes nearby for 5–10k runs and just a 10-minute walk to the seafront. There are plenty of great places to eat, drink, and shop just make sure to book restaurants in advance! Parking is on the street, and while it’s first-come, we managed to get spots right outside the house. The area feels very safe and welcoming to leave cars not near by. I honestly can’t wait to come back four days wasn’t nearly enough to explore everything!

Vanessa was a superb host, very responsive, sharing many recommendations and tips upon arrival. The location was fantastic and the perfect place to stay in order to explore Deal and the surrounding area ! Thank you :)

We had a wonderful two days at Fisherman’s Cot. Set in beautiful gardens, it had a really special vibe. Frank and Jo were warm and welcoming and we felt at home straight away. It was a short 10 min walk to the beach and into Whitstable town centre, so it’s a great location. Even better to return back and spend the evening eating al-fresco in the garden while our dog Arnold sniffed and explored. A very relaxing stay.

Thank you for such a wonderful stay. The cottage was beautiful inside and out, and a perfect location to walk and explore the surrounding area and enjoy all that Whitstable has to offer. Charlotte offered great recommendations for places to eat and drink. We loved our stay at Seabird Cottage, thank you.

Cecilia was a lovely interesting lady - we should have had tea with her ! Had a lovely stay in her tiny house in the garden - very homely - beautiful bedroom with a terrace to sit outside in our dressing gowns ! Fresh flowers were a lovely touch !

What an amazing place, Seasalter Cabin provided us with a “home” to stay for 4 days. There were lots of options if you want to eat out, or cook! We love your kitchen and that dining table. Feeling energised and chilled afterwards. Thank you!

Lovely Cottage, beautifully decorated,nice courtyard garden and ideally located for the beach, Amanda always very responsive to any queries, would recommend to anyone , Alan & Jill

Lovely stay at this property - it had everything we needed including a great view to the Dungeness lighthouse. Hosts were really helpful and responsive. Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend.

We really enjoyed our stay Accommodation is really cute and cozy Will definitely like to come again! Kids loved the freedom of the location And pool was great and all very easy to get around.

We had a great stay for a long weekend with the family. The place was very roomy and had plenty of space for us all. Neil was very accomodating to last minute changes.

Lovely chalet! Spent a couple of nights here. Well equipped and comfy, clean and cosy for us and the kids. Good location for the park facilities which had lots to keep kids busy - make sure to check swimming pool times as they changed day to day during half term. We had a lovely time in rain and sun! Near the beach for a nice day on the dunes. Lyn was great at keeping in touch and with instructions - check in and out was v easy. Thank you!

Our second visit. Really enjoyed our stay in your lovely home. Everything was clean and we had everything we needed for our stay. A peaceful location and we feel at home. Especially enjoyed the welcome pack. Thank you Ross and we will be back next year.

The caravan was the biggest and most luxurious caravan we have stayed in. It was better than described, very well equipped, and the best location on site - very peaceful and great views, we loved watching the sheep! If we come back to Parkdean Camber Sands again, we are booking this caravan!

Amazing location. Lots to do if you do a bit of research. Very tidy and well set up cabin. Had a great time with the kids, can't go wrong staying here if you're a family.

Stunning, beautiful, and peaceful location. The pool was warm enough and we had a great time despite some inclement weather! Maria was extremely helpful and left clear instructions, we had a relaxing holiday. Thanks so much Maria!

We had a great stay here. Perfect for the group of 11 we had. Plenty of space very clean and tidy as just as stunning as the photos
