Alcuin Lodge Guest House



York - A quiet retreat in a buzzing city, Alcuin Lodge is situated just outside the city walls of historic York, in a quiet cul-de-sac.
In keeping with the city's diverse architecture, varying from the medieval age right up to the contemporary, the Lodge is a beautifully maintained Edwardian period building full of original features and charm.
The quiet cul-de-sac location means you are assured a good night's sleep, and the sunny position means bedrooms are bright and welcoming all year. Alcuin Lodge's large dining room overlooks an old fashioned bowling green on the edge of the city, but is still a mere 5 minute stroll from town through the charming Museum Gardens.
