Great Victorian mansion

If you’re looking for a place to stay that’s close to all of the Lincoln historical sites then this is it! Close to the capital building also. Mansion is in very good condition and decorated with all period furniture. Also has the modern features that you would expect. Great place to stay!

We were delighted with The Bressmer. The ground floor is very large with three bedrooms, two bathrooms, a game room, a writing room, full kitchen and dining room. The rooms are beautifully decorated in Victorian style. We felt so special staying at The Bressmer we didn't want to leave.

Bressmer Ground Floor

Every member of our party was delighted to step into The Bressmer ground floor and discover all the historical details. It felt like we stepped back in time but had all the modern conveniences. We especially enjoyed the pump organ. Thank you for clear directions & communication. Would love to come back and check out the other floors and the carriage house.
