My house is in a quiet, leafy street approx 1 km from the town centre, 5 mins from the hospital with shops, restaurants/takeaways & parks a short walk away. Easy access to A2 for London & Canterbury & short walk or taxi to station 40mins to Kings Cross.

How do I book?
Contact the host to check their availability and ask them any questions you have about staying with them. Once the host confirms they’re available for your dates, you can complete your booking.

You then pay your host on arrival or as stated by your host on their profile and agreed by you on booking. Please be cautious if a host requests advance payment if its not included on their profile. Our hosts have been advised that if they wish to request advance payment they must make this explicit in their profile. We do not recommend the use of Money gram or Western Union.
