Bed and Breakfast The Black Horse Inn
11 & 12 Orchard Street, Canterbury, CT2 8AP, United Kingdom – Great location - show map
I thought the black horse inn was perfectly located, very comfortable with an absolutely adorable garden. But I must say the lovely, hard working Jolanta made my stay particularly enjoyable! She was always available for help, kept the place clean and tidy and cooked everyone a delicious full English breakfast every morning with a nice smile on her face! Thank you for everything 🙏 I’ll be back!

Rooms at The Black Horse Inn have private bathrooms with power showers. Each room has a flat-screen TV and tea and coffee making facilities, and the sitting room also has a Freeview TV.
The bed and breakfast is just off St Dunstan’s Road leading straight to the center of the city, so there are numerous cafés and restaurants within a 10-minute walk.
