Small (very small) disappointments about the hotel: - Really small room but adequate and acceptable for a weekend, - No parking (street parking) Conclusion : You have to go there! The region is great when the weather is nice! Perfect value/price ratio: +-90£/room/night breakfast incl. I will return for sure!

Our accommodations were clean, very comfortable and, as is the rest of the home, impeccably decorated. Owner Vicky is delightful and our interactions with her were what made our stay so delightful! Yorke Lodge is an easy and enjoyable walked to downtown Canterbury and all its shops and restaurants. We would highly recommend Yorke Lodge!

This B&B is in a great location, right on the seafront. It is clean and well decorated and the…read morefirst floor rooms at the front of the house are large and have a private balcony. Perfect for sitting outside on a summer's evening, watching the waves with a glass of wine. It is also a 10 minute walk outside of the town, on a very quiet stretch of the seafront so you don't need to worry about the noise of weekend revellers coming out of seafront bars late at night. It has changed ownership several times during the past few years, but has always remained an attractive, up-market B&B. Up-market being reflected in their prices - my parents paid £88 per night during their last trip to the UK. This is also not a B&B where you will get a full fry-up every morning. They have always provided a Continental breakfast in an effort to attract up-market clientele. When my parents last stayed, they were more than a little disappointed by the owners - quite often there was not enough breakfast to go roundand, rather than provide anything else, the guests went without. The owners had no experience of running a B&B, and it showed. Having said that, if you are looking for somewhere to stay for one or two nights, it will be fine. My parents stayed for 10 days and found the inexperience of the owners a little trying after the first few days.

There are some restaurants with views here in town. Forget the "Lobster Shack" though, not worth it. Grab your dinner elsewhere and just come for the sunset and a walk. The beach is a stoney beach, but has its charm. It's a fun and safe place, even after dark. There are lots of couples, visitors, families. But never feels crowded. There's parking along the beach and more carparks in town if you don't mind a walk.

I go to the Ebury Hotel Restaurant about once a month because it's amazing: simple as that. It's…read morethe best restaurant in Canterbury. I appreciate fine food with fresh ingredients and extraordinary taste combined into harmonious combinations and if i go to a 'good restaurant': that is what I expect to get: you want that too? Go to the Ebury. Often I go to mediocre restaurants and pay 15-20 pounds for a 2/3 course meal (per head). You can get a 3 course meal at the Ebury for 25 pounds and I'm telling you it's worth it. I'm vegetarian so the starters such as Goats Cheese with butternut squash and walnut salad and Warm Leek Tart for main course always go down well; but my carnivorous companions are often treated to Kentish Duck Breast, Beef Bourguignon, Fillet Steak or Dover Sole: always with imaginative sauces, ingredients and flair. The ambience is gentle and beautifully decorated in a large hotel on the Old Dover Road with a large landscaped garden (even indoor swimming pool!!) and private bar/seating area. No loud music or plastic decor: this place is bona fide it doesn't need to be pretentious it is what it is namely: excellent and the staff service/original decor complement the top quality food. I go to restaurants in France, London and the rest of Canterbury: as far as all round judgement goes this is the best I know of yet, granted it has not got the Parisian buzz of Montmartre or the price tag of a Gordon Ramsey; but the food is top class as is the service and if all you people who don't know about it went there - It would have that buzz too!!! It's sitting there waiting for you. Since the restaurant is attached to a large successful hotel, it does not need to be busy, so it will be sat there waiting for you whether you folks choose to go or not - but it's your loss if you don't; especially if you ever miss the Chef Jean Pierre's amazing cheese cake. Even if you're in London you should make the effort to go: it really is that good, and chill out in their expansive garden with a G&T on a balmy summer evening I just can't sing this places praises enough: a hidden gem; like those amazing hidden away restaurants you find 'family owned' by chance when you are abroad. This place is family owned too: for 2 generations. I'm 30 and often go with friends of mine in the same age bracket, as groups or in pairs. Often when i go there the place is frequented by people of anywhere between 40-80; but as a slighter younger group we had a good time and laughed and talked for several hours: walking in the garden between courses. If you like fast food; don't go to this restaurant. If you like getting drunk and loud music: don't go to this restaurant. If you think getting ripped off is paying 25 pounds for 3 courses of top quality fresh ingredients cooked by a highly trained talented French chef and served by highly trained catering staff (Manager was trained in London along with head waiter) - go and get a Pizza/Ceasar salad for 15 pounds instead in one of the high street chains: I know most people do. But if you appreciate top quality French/British cuisine with good sized portions for a reasonable price, in a restaurant with a huge beautiful garden and amazing staff: what are you waiting for???? Come on people wake up to the Ebury experience.. See you there.
