Stay at the foot of Steep Hill in Lincoln

Comparing places to stay in historic Lincoln? The Nook is a characterful holiday rental for two at 2 St Martins Street, at the foot of Steep Hill.

A base between the city and the hill

The Nook sits at the foot of Steep Hill, one of Lincoln’s best-known historic streets. Choose it when you want a self-catering stay for two with the city’s shops and restaurants close by and the Castle and Cathedral up the hill.

This is a city stay, with a courtyard and balcony of its own. You can explore the surroundings on foot and return to your own sitting room and kitchen between outings, rather than travelling back to accommodation outside Lincoln.

Arriving at The Nook

The address is 2 St Martins Street, Lincoln, Lincolnshire LN2 1JA. Lincoln railway station is around a ten-minute walk away, and two car parks are a short walk from the property. Check current travel and parking arrangements before arriving.

Find The Nook on Google Maps to plan your route. Key-code access is included in your stay; follow the arrival information supplied for your booking.

Plan for Lincoln’s hills

The clue is in the name: reaching the Cathedral Quarter from The Nook involves an uphill walk along Steep Hill. Think about the needs of everyone in your party when planning days out, especially if walking on slopes or historic streets is difficult.

At the cottage, the double bedroom is upstairs and opens onto a balcony, with a mezzanine above. Ask David about the layout and access before booking if you need to check whether the property suits you.

What to explore

Start with the shops and restaurants around the hill, then plan time for the Castle, Cathedral and Bailgate. For a different part of the city, explore the High Street and Brayford Waterfront. The homepage’s Lincoln visitor guide links to ideas and information for your stay.
