Aylesbury priory is lovely and an uplifting place to visit, we had a wander round and tea and cake.
We did part of the Augustine camino and also enjoyed the evensong at Canterbury cathedral and visiting ramsgate
We went to evensong in Canterbury cathedral on Wednesday. We had to wear masks. There was recorded singing and live organ music. There is scaffolding up but is was still a good experience it was at 5.30pm. You enter the cathedral near the Wetherspoon in Burgate.
I definitely advise spend some time in Aylesford. There is a premier inn Maidstone (sandling) which is close to the route. It may be worth considering as somewhere to stop for the night.
We were in Aylesford today we did see one pilgrim with his shell. The cafe was open but pilgrim hall closed. It was not possible to stay there. It was wonderful to walk around the friars, I think Doug recommended it.
Have you looked on British pilgrimage.com? That may be helpful
It is so difficult to know what to do, as we are unfit to travel abroad we had planned a British pilgrimage, now it looks as we may just be in the back garden. Lorna we do appreciate all hard working nhs staff I thank you in advance.
O way home seriously considering st Augustine camino but need a break every 3 miles. Did you find many cafes en route or pubs? Do you recommend any places to stay. Did you need to use taxis to get to your accommodation .
