What it says in brochure quite peaceful beautiful settings comfy beds . Lovely choice of breakfast . Next to the cathedral and easy to get around salisbury . If your looking for late nights and fun this is not the place for you . Its a retreat for getting back to you .and finding serenity .Also secure and within cathedral so gsyes close at 11 and you can get a key for a deposit . Also a car park with a few spaces .nice benches in park across the road .reception staff were very helpful and helped me out with directions . Also this hosts religious events if your interested in this .

A fantastic location and very friendly staff. My room was very simple with no en suite as advertised. Given the price, I thought it was good value. There was an excellent choice for breakfast. Although I didn't have the cooked breakfast, other guests I ate with said it was good.

To walk out and be smashed in the face with an incredible (and unobstructed) view of perhaps the finest Gothic cathedral in Britain is a real treat!!!!

Room 313 had a view of a flat roof and the constant noise from an extractor fan. Whilst the noise stopped at 6pm it spoilt our stay. We were told that an alternative room would be prepared and then told that we had to stay put! Tranquility and peace & quiet were sadly missing from our overnight stay. The breakfast was good but served on cold plates 🙁

Exceptional accommodation in the college. Free parking, free full English help yourself breakfast. Facing Salisbury Cathedral. Convenient for seeing this and Magna Carta. Room with en-suite, towels , coffee and tea and kettle. No TV but not a problem as we have books. NT Mompesson House round the corner. Very much enjoyed our stay and will return. To be recommended to others.

I have been staying at Sarum College yearly since 2012. Although the staff have changed over the years the welcome one received is wonderful. The breakfasts continue to be wonderful with something for everyone.

Room basic but immaculate. Had the things you need and not the things you don’t (no tv) but has Wi-Fi. Beds cosy, breakfast excellent. I’m coming back again. It has a Christian community feel to it. Very welcoming.
