Cheap Hotels, Apartments and B&B for a Christmas Break in Canterbury Kent

Shopping Hot Spot at Christmas Time

During the festive season there’s everything from pantomimes and festive shows, X-Mas events, music and carols along with Christmas markets.

For many, X-Mas holidays means one thing, shopping. There’s a traditional market held in Whitefriars Square. It has a large selection of stalls, entertainment and great food. It’s the perfect opportunity to do your shopping. Buy gifts for your loved ones and don’t forget yourself. Check out the Advent Fair, Austrian Gift Fair and the X-Mas Fair at King Edward Court.

Book the Best Accommodation

Reserve cheap hotels or a bed and breakfast establishment in early December so you can see the Herne Bay X-Mas lights switch-on. It’s always best to book well in advance of your trip whether it’s a b&B, guest house or self-catering apartment. Holidays here are very popular at this time of year, so accommodation is at a premium.

After doing your X-Mas shopping, how about taking the kids to a panto or a festive show. They are sure to enjoy Dick Whittington, Jack and the Beanstalk, Hansel and Gretel or for you the Nutcracker Suite.

Spend a morning or afternoon shopping in one of the many local markets before going to a Christmas carol service. There are also family carol concerts and other X-Mas events.

After an evening’s entertainment what could be better returning to your cheap bed and breakfast, hotels or apartment? Check online for the best b&b accommodation for your festive holidays this year. Rooms are bright and airy with everything you could wish for. Enjoy a delicious full English breakfast each morning when staying in a b&b.
