CANTERBURY LIVING
Canterbury is an exciting and dynamic city that offers a university experience like no other. Get ready to immerse yourself in its rich history and diverse culture and make lasting memories within its lively city walls. The people, architecture and atmosphere all make Canterbury truly unique, and you’ll be proud to call it home.
Located in Kent, just over an hour by train from London and even closer to quirky seaside towns such as Whitstable, Margate and Dover, Canterbury is a cathedral city and proud World Heritage Site. Students make up over half of our population, so you’ll often find yourself bumping into a friendly face when you’re out and about.
We’re one of the most popular tourist cities in the UK, and for good reason! Our long history is steeped in culture, the arts, musical and sporting achievements and more. But we’re not living in the past. We’re rooted in history and blazing a trail as a fun, modern city with some great restaurants, bars, shops and leisure destinations for you to explore.
