Nice experience
Pros:

Great location. Beautiful green space and buildings within the city

Cons:

We initially had nowhere secure to park bikes. After talking to the porters on second day they then confirmed ok to access the grounds. Spoke to the bursar on the second day and asked if bike storage for visitors could be advertised on the website
