Overview

Sarum College offers a friendly stay in historic buildings just opposite Salisbury Cathedral within its 80-acre Close. The Cathedral, a masterpiece of early English architecture, is renowned for its soaring spire, the tallest in the UK, and its stunning 13th-century design.

This city-centre setting is close to the high street as well as the rail station with direct services to London and to major Southern England cities.

A small community of Anglican Benedictine monks is still leaving at St Benedict’s Priory. You can come to daily offices in the priory house, the morning mass at the cathedral is every morning at 7:30, midday prayer at Sarum College at 12:15, and choral evensong in the choir of the cathedral.


Check in: 14:00 (2:00pm) - 21:00 (9:00pm) (arrivals may be allowed outside this window if your travel plans can't be adjusted however this is subject to availability)

Check out: 09:30 (9:30am) - 09:45 (9:45am)

A very warm welcome and good clean rooms with tea and coffee making facilities. As I have arthritis I was very disappointed to discover that the lift was out of action and my room was up several flights of stairs. If I had known before hand I would have made alternate arrangements. Breakfast was excellent

Very pleasant stay, friendly and welcoming. Breakfast exceeded my expectations! Only slight downside was my room was very stuffy due to hot weather. The fan provided struggled to deliver a good temperature. Have already booked another night at end of the month. Would def recommend

The building is very nice, the location is great. Breakfast schedule could be a little more flexible, as well as the the checkout time (first time we need to leave at 9.30). The rest was very good and staff quite helpful.

Wonderful building, excellent breakfast. The single room was sparse but spotless. Unfortunately the heating was not working and it was a little cool in the evening. A portable heater was supplied.
