The Duke William  

In Canterbury, a cosy Kentish inn just a 15-minute drive from Canterbury Cathedral and the University of Kent. Nearby draws include Howletts Wild Animal Park and Stodmarsh National Nature Reserve, with Dover Castle and the White Cliffs within easy reach for day trips.

A quintessential Kentish pub feel — think open fires, cosy corners and a lively bar. Rooms are small and comfortable (only a handful of guestrooms) with TV, shower and minibar in many rooms. Complimentary breakfast is included, luggage storage is available, and pets are welcome for a pet-friendly stay.

Free self-parking and complimentary Wi‑Fi plus wired internet keep you connected. Enjoy the garden, picnic area and barbecue grills, or unwind with a drink in the bar/lounge. Quiet wedding services and an intimate pub atmosphere round out the stay.

A conference hall and wedding services make the place practical for small events. Staff speak multiple languages and there’s complimentary wired internet for work needs.

On-site restaurant and bar serving seasonal, locally sourced Kentish fare — fresh fish and summer produce to slow-cooked pies in winter. Start the day with the included breakfast, then come back for robust pub plates and regional flavours.
