The Lychgate Cottages on Priory Row are some of the oldest buildings in the city, dating from 1415, and provide a unique place to stay in the heart of Coventry.
The cottages retain the character of the jetted timber framed buildings now combined with modern luxury to provide high quality self-contained accommodation.
6 Priory Row is a two bedroom property located over two floors of the Priory Row buildings. Featuring a grand master bedroom with four-poster bed (ideal for bridal suite).
Stairs to the first floor lead to a small landing with access to the first of two double bedrooms, as well as a bathroom with bath and shower over, and a separate toilet. The landing also gives access though a historic low door (mind your head!) to a kitchen/dining area, along with a living room area, with comfy modern sofa and chairs, overlooking the ruins of St Mary’s Priory. You get a great view of the city, right over to the nearby Coventry Cathedral.
On the second floor is a large master bedroom. With a modern four-poster bed, there is also plenty of space for a comfy chair and a modern desk and chair. Adjacent is an ensuite bathroom, with a large luxury shower.
Original features such as the unique timber framing of the building are combined with modern luxury to ensure a really comfortable stay. Luxurious beds and plenty of hot water in a modern shower or bath, along with all you need in the kitchen and living areas are available right in the heart of the city. With views over Holy Trinity church and Broadgate, Priory Row is an oasis in this historic city.
PLEASE NOTE: please note this is an historic building (dating to the 15th century). The stairs are steep. PARKING: There is no car parking on the site. The nearest car park is Salt Lane car park (CV1 2GY) which is located just five minutes’ walk away.
Priory Row is located right in the heart of the city, overlooking Broadgate and Holy Trinity church. Come and see an exciting range of music at the recently restored Drapers’ Hall, just round the corner. Rediscover your local High Street with its independent shops, restaurants and pubs on the nearby historic Burges and Hales Street. Coventry Cathedral, the Herbert Art Gallery & Museum and Coventry Transport Museum are only moments’ walk away.

Absolutely fantastic stay after getting married.
Lovely old character building which has been renovated to a high standard and is spotlessly clean. Ideal location in city centre close to cathedrals and also near the registry office.

A very enjoyable stay in a fantastic place, brimming with history.
The house was wonderful, old combined with the present in a beautiful and peaceful combination.
To stay in the middle of the medevial city center was breathtaking. The buildings, the cathedrals, the streets and the atmosphere were absolutely perfect.

Excellent accommodation in a heritage building
The accommodation was excellent and sensibly priced. There was a touch of luxury about the place and the facilities were a cut above the norm. We really enjoyed our stay. But,
We talked to you on the text service before checking in, as the system for issuing access codes needs attention (ie it doesn’t work well, between us we sorted it) and, in particular, the early check in payment system is not properly connected to the system for issuing the codes (ie the person issuing codes did not know).

Coventry seen from the heart-of the city in a historic house
The location of this self-catering place is in the heart of the city in an historic area. That was lovely. Be prepared to lug your luggage to it as there is no vehicular access open to visitors and that's tricky. The house would benefit some personal touches that makes it more loved (it wouldn't take much other than do that). We improvised with fresh flowers. More personal engagement with the managers would be reassuring. A good location.
