Good location, walkable to Canterbury Cathedral. Good single room, comfortable bed. Hosts were very friendly and helped me up to my room by carrying my suitcase. Since I was on the top floor, this was much appreciated. Breakfast was plentiful starting with continental choices and then a full cooked meal with several choices on the menu. Very good value for the cost.

Great B and B for exploring Canterbury

Wincheap B and B is a great place to stay when visiting Canterbury. Great location (just outside city walls and 15 minutes walk to cathedral), lovely spacious, comfortable, clean room with TV, fan, fridge, kettle, tea and coffee, and the breakfast is excellent. Terry and Chris are great hosts, and gave us a map and suggested walking routes. Highly recommend

Quiet despite being on busy street.

Nicely appointed roomy room, quiet despite being on busy street, 5/6 block walk to city center and Canterbury Cathedral, nice breakfast, congenial hosts. No lift. Bathroom a little small but very clean. Suggest adding a swinging magnifying mirror. Parking on the street behind the B&B so car not visible. Only 3 spots available. Short walk to B&B location from parking.

Brilliant b&b.

The Wincheap b&b is first class. Its about a 7 minute walk into the city and you can park your car around the back .The room was lovely and clean with what looks like a new carpet throughout. The bathroom was spotless with an impressive shower. Loved the breakfast with lots of choice. Very impressive and i would recommend it to anyone. Cannot be faulted.

What a gem of a B&B. Well situated, elegant and overall fabulous home away from home. The host was brilliant, the room was spotless and extremely comfy and well appointed and the breakfast was perfect. I would highly recommend (and I am an extremely fussy traveller).
