Philippa's place is in a great location. You can walk to tons of restaurants, shopping, and the castle. The problem is finding it. We had a really hard time locating the apartment. The street it is located on intersects the center of several city blocks, and you only access small sections of it by car. GPS took me to the wrong spot, too. The street is mostly used for pedestrian traffic only and deliveries. The apartment does come with a washer / dryer and this was great. It was one of two places we stayed at during our two weeks in the UK that had this amenity. Overall a good stay. If we ever come back, we would strongly consider staying here again, as our biggest annoyance was finding the actual location.
