Stuart and Georgiana have lived in Upper Harbledown for over 20 years and have enjoyed their rural setting although only being less than three miles from Canterbury City Centre. During that time they have converted their barn into a purpose built guest house accommodation and have developed a pig farm in their extensive oak woodland providing them with the pleasure of keeping pigs in their natural environment and also giving fantastic tasting meat. Georgiana also runs a cleaning company servicing many hotels and knows what it takes to provide outstanding cleanliness along with service. We obviously have daily housekeeping included in the room rate, of exceptional standards. Both Stuart and Georgiana welcome guests to enjoy their bed and breakfast in their beautiful rural settings and pride themselves on their warm, friendly hospitality with onsite daily staff to assist. We have no minimum stay so whether you are booking an overnight stay or a longer holiday break, you are always welcome at Oakside Lodge.

Oakside Lodge provides a great place to escape the rigors of modern day life.
