“My experience at The Black Horse revealed a property with a remarkably convenient location, particularly for those arriving by train at Canterbury West, and a breakfast that truly stands out. While some upstairs rooms, like number four, present a slight challenge with headroom, the second-floor rooms offer a more spacious comfort, and the overall impression is one of genuine hospitality and a well-cooked, satisfying morning meal.”
