This has to be one of the best breakfasts in Lincolnshire, a truly perfectly poached egg with crisp bacon, lots of coffee and toast. Lynne was so friendly and made me really welcome on what will be the first of many visits. Comfortable room, beautifully clean with nice sheets and fluffy towels. Carholme will be hard to beat, thank you... More

It was the first time we visited Lincoln and we did so for a wedding locally. We couldn't have picked a more perfect place to stay. We knew we didn't want a soul-less chain hotel but we couldn't have picked better. Paula was flexible around our timings for the wedding and her plans (for her birthday) to let us check... More

I have just spent a great weekend in Lincoln staying at the Carholme Guest House. This is a lovely, family-run B & B. My room was very comfortable and, though I had only booked a single room, Paula had thoughtfully "promoted" me to a double with ensuite because she's had a cancellation. There's a great deal of choice on offer... More

Paula and Steve thoroughly deserve all the excellent reviews they receive for their hard work at Carholme. We had a fantastic stay and couldn't have been made to feel more welcome. We couldn't fault anything. The room was lovely, breakfast amazing, and Carholme is in an ideal location with easy access by foot into Lincoln. We will definitely return!

Although in Lincoln for business, our stay at Carholme transformed it into a holiday experience. Paula and Steve are wonderful hosts, rooms were very clean and nicely decorated, and I think I gained 5 kilos due solely to the outstanding breakfasts. I know I will stay at Carholme the next time I am in Lincoln. Thank you for a wonderful... More

I was in Lincoln for three days and loved staying at the Carholme Guest House. Paula was delightful, my room was extremely comfortable and clean and breakfast was delicious. It was the perfect base for a trip to such a marvellous cathedral city!

we stayed here 1 night while the Lincoln Christmas Market was on, it was in a easy walk to the centre, we had a nice warm welcome and cant say we had any faults with the stay and would definitely recommend and go back again.

Took a weekend here to watch the mighty Sadlers play Lincoln in the FA cup. The game was a complete waste of time, however this was not our experiance at this very pleasant guest house. Good parking, nice reception and if you want a nice room to lounge in. The room is compact but had all we needed. Cleanliness is... More
