This is a lovely listed building so you have to appreciate that some areas of the property are in need of attention. The windows & seals were rotten but it’s a very old property so have to accept this. The room we had was quite small but a nice comfy bed & shower room which is all we needed for a two day stay. The staff were extra friendly & helpful. We had a lovely stay in an old quirky hotel !

It's a fascinating old hotel with different parts dating from the 15th, 16th and 17th centuries. It's not been much modernised so floors are uneven and ceilings in the bedrooms low- part of its charm, but some people would prefer modernisation and more uptodate facilities. The staff are very friendly and helpful. Breakfast is freshly prepared and there's a wide choice of cooked food. It's in a good position, close to the cathedral and shops, and there's a car park.

Top place to stay with a lot of character
Perfect nigh away for a business trip. Great central location with parking. Have stayed at the White Hart a few times and if you are looking to stay in a place with some history and a lot of character, then this is the one for you.

Great location
It’s a privilege to stay in this ancient venue, the public areas are splendid. Room 9 on the first floor was quiet, fairly accessible, and has a well designed en-suite shower. Unfortunately the bed was very bouncy, and the duvet too small, so we didn’t sleep particularly well.
