A lucky find.
Pros:

Immaculately clean, tastefully decorated, close to the cathedral and castle and cosy pubs with good food. The staff were friendly, helpful and accommodating. This is a special place.

Cons:

We loved every thing about it. It was a bit of a hike from the car park, up the hill in hot weather, but this is no fault of the hotel.

Wonderful! Beautiful accommodation and lovely view
Pros:

Beautiful accommodation in a top spot in Lincoln at the top of steep hill. The veranda was an unexpected bonus particularly since the weather was for once in British history lovely. Could not recommend this accommodations enough it's a little gem in the heart of Lincoln I'm so pleased I found it. Will most definitely stay again hopefully for longer!
