Like Chaucer's pilgrims to Caunterbury we wende. And what tales Canterbury has to tell. Tales writ in the ancient cathedral towering moodily over the nearby pubs and shops. Tales gleaned from half-timbered, white-washed little houses lining narrow streets. Tales borne by the river Stour swabbling past brilliant flowerbeds and under arching stone bridges. In Canterbury we enter another world...we step into mediaeval history.

 

 

And look, the getting there itself – faster than a speeding bullet! – couldn't be more special. We take the Javelin High Speed Train, the only super high speed train line in the country. It's whoosh! and we're there.
