Residential facilities for work or pleasure in the unparalleled beauty of Salisbury Cathedral Close.
Sarum College is a centre for study and research in historic grade 1-listed buildings.
The College was founded in 1995 to offer theological learning to all. Alongside our own courses and conferences, local, national and international groups and individuals hire our facilities to meet, train and celebrate.
Across the quad from us live three Anglican Benedictine monks in St Benedict’s Priory, who are part of the greater Sarum College community, along with the Royal School of Music (RSCM) whose national administrative office is housed on the second floor.
What a very good find!
Building is full of character and while the rooms are slightly more basic than in a 3/4 star hotel, they are very clean, functional and have everything you need, as well as (in our case) lovely view of the Cathedral. Breakfast in the refectory was very good too.
Great to stay in the actual Cathedral Close.
Back for second helpings
A warm and comfortable location, with plenty of space and an excellent meal. All enjoyed the selection of courses that you provided and many (including me) when back for second helpings!
Please would you pass our thanks on to all those in your team who helped during the evening. They could not have been more courteous and obliging.
A little gem
The college is beautiful, so quirky, peaceful and full of character.
The location is perfect, and stepping out in the morning to beautiful views of the cathedral was magical. It was my first overnight stay away since lockdown and I was a bit anxious but I can’t fault the experience.
The rooms were small, cosy and spotlessly clean, with hand sanitiser and wipes. The sheets were fresh and the beds comfy. The staff were also amazing and so accommodating, friendly and helpful.
Sarum College is a little gem – thank you for a lovely experience.
A level of discretion
A lovely arrangement of different architecture styles, Sarum College is located opposite the Cathedral and enjoys a level of discretion thanks to the larger attraction; yet take the opportunity to visit or just walk slowly past.
Comfortable and unfussy
The college is in a wonderful location right next to the cathedral in the main square and it is very picturesque.
The rooms are comfortable and unfussy, good bedding and towels and my room had a sink in too with a toilet and shower just down the hall…I was grateful for the comfy bed and good wifi connectivity to watch a bit of Netflix as I got ready for bed.
Happy and a little rounder!
After some time of thinking of all our experiences at Salisbury, we want to say a very special warm thank you to you and your crew at the kitchen… Some of us missed your meals the minute we set off. So thank you for not just doing your job but making us very happy and pleased (as well as a bit bigger and heavier than before or let us say a bit more rounded😉)
