Lovely place to stay in the heart of Lincoln. The house was very modern and clean, with everything we needed. What I loved most was how it was right on Steep Hill which is the most quaint part of Lincoln with a magnificent view of the Cathedral. If I'm in the area again, I would definitely stay here again.Only thing I would raise is that as it's right on the high street, there will be a lot of noise in the evenings around the weekend.
