Pin Hill campus accommodation located right in the heart of the city. Overlooking the historic city wall, it is located directly opposite from Canterbury East Train Station and a five minutes’ walk to the city centre and Canterbury bus station. The site is the perfect location for groups, large or small as well as singles, couples, families and tourists, looking to be near local transport hubs and a stone’s throw from the city centre.

Managed by Canterbury Christ Church University; this site boasts 159 rooms with a mixture of en-suite (40 rooms) and shared bathrooms (119 rooms). Due to its nature, Pin Hill lends itself to larger groups such as summer and language schools and we are currently accepting reservations for the summer of 2019.
