Cathedral Mews

Conveniently located within the pedestrian area of the city's historic conservation area, Cathedral Mews has a contemporary design and provides high specification accommodation. The building where Cathedral Mews is situated boasts medieval oak beamed ceilings dating back to 1345 AD.

The interior of the property has been meticulously thought out with original artwork, light oak furniture and crisp cotton bed linen. All modern comforts are provided making this apartment not only luxurious but homely too. A unique feature of Cathedral Mews is the stunning views of the cathedral and the pretty tiled rooftops. This magnificent backdrop is prominent from every window in the apartment and also from the beautiful French doors which lead out from the spacious open plan lounge/diner onto a private roof terrace, the perfect place to sit and relax before or after a busy day's site seeing. There is also a pretty communal garden which adds to the feeling of space and exclusivity.

This self catering apartment is accessed through a historic oak entrance doorway with antique iron fixings leading off from Mercery Lane to a well lit, contemporary entrance reception. Following the stairs up from here, you will find the apartment facing the pretty communal gardens and stunning cathedral.

The front door to the apartment opens into a light and spacious hallway with an oak console table. Here you will find an assortment of information on places to visit, dine and generally make the most of your stay.

Just off the hallway is situated the master bedroom, with an impressive walnut bed and matching side tables with coffee and cream coloured silk lamp shades. There is also a matching dressing table, mirror and stool. The large window is dressed with antique white shutters which can be fully opened to allow light to completely fill the room. There is a large built in wardrobe with ample floor and hanging space.

The light and airy second bedroom has oak twin beds with under bed storage, and a side table with extra lighting. There is an attractive matching dressing table, stool and mirror and again the large window is dressed with antique white shutters.

The family bathroom is fully-tiled with a modern cream suite incorporating a bath and separate over-head shower, WC, basin, large mirror and a contemporary stainless steel heated towel radiator.

At the end of the spacious corridor is a large open-plan kitchen and living/dining area, which is exquisitely interior designed with contemporary furnishings, white walls and a matt lacquered oak floor which creates a very light and roomy area. The modern and very stylish kitchen area has a high white gloss finish with black granite worktops and is fully fitter with fan oven and extractor, gas hob, microwave, fridge, freezer, dishwasher, wine fridge, waste disposal and tap with integrated drinking water filtration system.

In the dining area there is a large oak table with matching chairs and bench which can comfortably seat four people. The living room area features ample seating on two chocolate leather sofas complete with sumptuous cream and pink silk cushions grouped around a beautiful oak coffee table. On the walls hang artwork by Adam Barsby as well as a mounted TV with freeview along with a matching blue ray DVD player. The charming French doors have been thoughtfully dressed, again with antique white shutters that have been designed to show the magnificent view of the cathedral at all times. These doors lead out onto the private terrace which is semi enclosed by a tall ivy border with pretty flower beds containing lavender, herbs and fuchsias. There is a wrought iron table with matching chairs and cushions. The communal garden has blue/black slate and hardwood decking, LED lighting and has lots of colourful plants and trees in the surrounding borders.

The apartment has gas central heating. There is no private parking available; however, Canterbury offers plenty of parking facilities that are just a 4-5 minute walk away from the apartment.
