Our second wonderful stay
Had a main-floor courtyard room this time, which saved our having to tackle the stairs. Got to enjoy the beautiful back patio and other spaces.

Beautiful central hotel in the Cathedral area
A beautiful hotel very central location near the Cathedral our room was in the cottage which was beautifully decorated. Breakfast is extra £15 pp we declined as there are so many nice little cafes and coffee shops near by. The bed mattress was too hard which I know is a personal choice. Would definitely return.

A bit disappointed after looking at the reviews. The room was very small and cramped. Very basic for the price we paid. The staff were friendly and helpful. Just missing a few frills.
