“Great location nr cathedral, top breakfast, friendly”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 27 July 2011

We were able to check in early (by prior arrangement) and spend the day with friends. Warm and flexible welcome. We had a lovely cooked breakfast complete with optional black pudding. The hosts do their best to tailor the breakfast to meet the guests' needs.
There are lots of leaflets on things to do in the area. The castle and cathedral are easily accessible, as are a couple of Real Ale pubs. Strugglers Inn is well worth a visit. http://www.beerintheevening.com/pubs/s/12/12854/Strugglers_Inn/Lincoln

We stayed just one night in room 1. It was clean, had a sink in the room. The double bed was comfy - we slept well and the coffee/tea was a welcome addition. There is a clock radio too. The decor would not have been my choice (a bit flowery) and the ensuite loo/shower was a bit small (no bath). Room 1 is on the right of the front door so about 30 mins after we got in, we heard some other guests return but this was not late so it wasn't a problem. The road is quiet. The sausages were good but not as good as from my local Lincs. butcher :) These minor niggles stop me giving 5/5.

So if you want a reasonably priced room in a great location in uphill Lincoln, a decent breakfast, and a warm welcome, choose the Carline Guest House!

“Excellent value, great, friendly place to stay”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 24 October 2010

I enjoyed my stay at the Carline Guest House. The hosts were extremely friendly and they were happy to help (I had a query, trying to find a place I was visiting the next day). On the plus side, lovely, warm bedroom, functional en-suite shower room, comfortable bed and tea and coffee making facilities. Breakfast was good too - though I didn't have a cooked breakfast, there was an array of cereals to choose from. My only gripe, and it is a slight one - I stayed on the ground floor (in Room 1) and it is situated by the front door - I was just unlucky enough to be woken by some noisy guests at 1am. The TV didnt work for me, but I was more than happy to catch up on news on the clock radio that was in the room. Well worth going back.

“very nice”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 26 September 2010

We stayed here for one night mid week, we had not already booked so were lucky to find such a nice guest house within a few minutes walk of the Cathedral. The guest house is close to many of the attractions of Lincoln. The room was slightly dated but very comfortable and large with a kingsize bed. I would definately recommend this guest house.

“everything you need”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 15 September 2010

Quite a spacious room on the ground floor. Very friendly staff on arrival. Everything I needed was in the room. Lots of well-positioned powerpoints, hairdryer, ironing board and iron. The whole guesthouse seems to run like a well oiled machine. Good position (just a couple of minutes walk) near Lincoln Cathedral. I would stay there again.

“Marvelously friendly and quiet place with plenty of ice for Americans”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 21 August 2009

The Carline owners are warm and unfailingly good humored people who serve up a brilliant breakfast. The quiet rooms are small but pleasant, tidy, and fully equipped. We have stayed at this fine B&B at least six times, and will continue to do so, especially as it is close to major antique centers and fairgrounds. Further, for Americans who love ice with their adult drinks, there's a special built-in ice cabinet in the entry way!
