Robert
NEWLY REFURBISHED APRIL 2019 I'm a 340 year old converted coaching house set in the heart of Newark with two double bedrooms. One with a double bed and the other with a king size bed. A single put up bed could be provided if you are a group of 5. The bathroom has a bath as well as a shower. There is a lounge area as well as a kitchen with a break with a dining area. Wfi is also provided if you need to log onto the Internet. Due to the different levels in and around the property I am sorry to say children are not allowed to stay at the Secret Garden for their safety. It's also not ideal for anybody with walking difficulties as there is a stair case leading up to the apartment which overlooks the Secret Garden. Apologies for any inconvenience caused.
Hi I am Robert, I have a bubbly personality and I am easy to get on with. I enjoy hosting and meeting different people and sharing my knowledge of the Newark town. I am always here if you need any help and I hope you enjoy your stay.
The apartment is in the town center with all local amenities close by such as bars, shops and tourist attractions like the museum, Palace Theater, Newark castle and the market. There's always lots of fun things to do in Newark! Brochures can be found in the apartment. There is two local train stations within about 10 mins walk from the apartment, Newark Castle and Newark North gate. There is free parking outside the property from 6pm until 9am Mon - Sat and all day Sun. Out of these hours there is free parking across from the apartment near the college.
