Woolpack Inn in Canterbury 1-800-230-4134
Chilham, Canterbury, CT48DL United Kingdom (GBR) (Rural)
WHERE AND WHY - Located in the Garden of England Just off the A28 between Ashford and Canterbury is the chocolate box village of Chilham, where you can find a real gem; the 600 year old Woolpack Inn is nestled at the bottom of the hill in the shadow of the Norman castle. With its vast oak beams and inglenook fireplaces it offers a glimpse into hospitality of yesteryear. The inn is said to be haunted by the Grey lady, a friendly ghost who wanders the main building.
Visitors can choose to relax in the cosy bar, the restaurant with its glorious bay window and country lane views or the patio courtyard where they will find the olive tree which has been in situ since the inn was built.
Parking is not a problem with availability for 25 cars to the rear of the hotel and space enough to accommodate a coach. The Woolpack provides a great stop-over destination being just 30 minutes from the channel tunnel and Ashford International.
ON THE MENU – the Inn boasts a home-cooked menu with many of the ingredients being sourced locally. Fish comes off the boat in the morning and often is on the plate by lunch service. Simple, honest food seems to be the order of the day. Local mushroom sautéed in garlic butter, finished with stilton and cream and presented on a garlic ciabatta, real home-made steak & Spitfire Ale pie, and homemade strawberry shortcake give a hint of the homely fayre on offer. Monday to Friday offers an all inclusive 2/3 course menu at a reasonable £7.50/£10.

Weddington Lane, Ash, CT32AR United Kingdom (GBR) (Rural)
Two ancient, Oriental plane trees stand guard at the entrance to the drive and a majestic Holm Oak dominates the lawn at Great Weddington, a Regency Grade II listed country house, sitting in splendour in a beautiful English country garden and offering visitors luxury bed and breakfast (B&B) in Canterbury, Kent.
Built around 1835 by a master brewer of ginger beer, the classically proportioned house exudes comfort and warmth. The drawing room is mellow and relaxing and leads onto a beautiful stone terrace overlooking the garden. Terracotta book-cloth covers the walls in the dining room, which creates a richly atmospheric backdrop for dinner.
An elegant staircase leads past a stunning arched window to the galleried first floor and the luxury B&B accommodation where there are two spacious and light double or twin bedrooms, both with their own bathrooms and showers. The Garden Room on the ground floor, also with its own bath and shower, opens onto the herb garden.
