The historic cathedral city of Canterbury is home to Canterbury Cathedral, one of the most important centres of pilgrimage in Medieval England and home to Thomas Becket’s shrine. Be sure to keep an eye out for open garden days throughout the year for a private tour of the beautifully kept gardens and precincts of the cathedral grounds. A must-see for all garden lovers.
The cathedral quarter is packed with cafés and restaurants so there is plenty of choice when it comes to stopping for lunch or a quick coffee break.
