​
Is parking available at the Hotel?
There are 6 public Pay & Display parking bays outside of the guesthouse. These are restricted Mon-Fri 8.30am-6.30pm and Sat 8.30am-1.30pm which means between these hours you will have to pay to park and can only stay for max 1 hour. Alternatively a number of secure car-parks are located within a 15min walk.
Do you have a lift?
Our Victorian townhouse only has stairs, which are authentically narrow and unsuitable for large or heavy luggage. If accessibility is an issue, you might be better off booking The Quarters located on the ground floor. However, please keep mind that this is out most compact room. For more information please contact us directly.
​
Do you offer wheelchair access?
Being a Victorian building with heritage restrictions unfortunately we don’t have wheelchair access. If you don’t use a wheelchair but find stairs difficult, you might be more comfortable booking The Quarters which is on ground floor. Please contact us directly ahead of booking to discuss your requirements in detail.
