Great accommodation in an excellent, quiet location 5 minutes from the cathedral.(I'd replace the saucepans as the metal handles and metal lids are way too hot to manipulate.)

Well appointed cosy cottage. Very quiet despite being so close to the city centre. Convenient parking. Easy to ditch the car after arrival and use the Coastliner bus from Stonebow and trains to travel further afield.Listen for the Minster bells on Sunday morning!
