Stamford is a beautiful Georgian market town with lots of things to do and places to visit nearby. Shopping is very enjoyable as there are plenty of independent shops as well as the usual clothing chains. The Friday open air market was excellent and there were lots of bargains to be had. The choice of restaurants and cafes was very good. We can recommend Amore for its Italian cuisine and Kancchi for Indian/ Nepalese food, but would advise that you book in advance if possible.

I love old character buildings and this certainly is a lovely old character building.
The location is good with most amenities in Stamford within a ten to fifteen minute walk.
On site parking is a bonus.
Would I stay again ? Yes, very much so, whilst there were a couple of little niggles overall I enjoyed the experience.

Easy to get around hills are gentle and manageable for those with limited walking. The Hong Kong Chinese restaurant is very good, but needs to be booked as tables go quickly. Street market on Fridays and a lots of boutique shops. The St Martins Antique centre offers a extensive range of interesting collectables.
Premium Taxis are very reasonable £3.00 from the High Street back to the William Cecil Hotel.

Stamford a picturesque market town in the south western district of Lincolnshire accommodating 17th and 18th century stone buildings creating a quaint charming characterful location amongst half-timbered Elizabethan housing and 5 medieval parish churches.
The Romans built Erasmine Street across what is now Burghley Park Estate and forded to the River Welland west of Stamford also built a town north of Great Casterton on the River Gwash. In 61 AD Boudica of the Iceni followed the Roman Legion Legio IX Hispana across the river. The Anglo-Saxon later chose Stamford as the main town and appeared in the Doomsday Book 1086 as Stanford.
As the Great North Road passed through Stamford which became a halting town for travellers, Henry VIII, Queen Elizabeth, James I and Charles I all passed through making a post station for the Postal Service during Elizabeth I reign. In 1663 an Act of Parliament passed and setup turnpikes creating a significant difference to wealth and prosperity of Stamford.
Stamford is a great location to stay being a beautiful town to explore and enjoy accommodating an abundance of pubs, cafes and restaurants with an eclectic mix of boutiques and shops to browse.
Places to visit:
15 Century William Browne Hospital and medieval Alms-house
St. Mary's Church which has a crooked spire
Burghley House, built by Queen Elizabeth I's chief advisor on 810 acres Grounds Capability Brown Landscaped the estate which is still home to the same family.

The location is so central. The hotel is stylish, quaint and chic but in an old fashion English way! It's directly opposite the church. The building is old and cosy. The garden terrace is surrounded by gorgeous flowers. (spot on for watching the Falcon taking off into the sky from the church).
Our room is quiet and nicely decorated.
The staff are efficient and extremely helpful.
