Little Wisteria is located on the outskirts of Canterbury. There is a friendly local community and the area is clean and safe. There are many places to eat in and around Canterbury. If you wish to eat in or stock up on supplies there is a major supermarket within a 10-15 minute walk. There is also a former Pub that is now a very reasonably priced breakfast/brunch cafe. If you fancy an alternative stroll into the city centre, you can join the 'Great Stour Way' (15 min walk away) which is a walk/cycle route following the Stour River. Opened in 2011 for Canterbury as a gateway to the Stour Valley and to the Kent Downs Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
