“In my opinion, this is a family-operated hotel with individually designed rooms and self-catering cottages, near Lincoln Castle and the Cathedral. The on-site restaurant uses local ingredients and has earned awards; still, some rooms have misleading Cathedral view descriptions and breakfast service can be slow. Overall, it's a well-located, historic-themed option.”
