I’m so glad Kathryn shared her experience with us. Check it out:
Convent Capers

So where is the best place to stay in York for five friends on a mission to have a weekend of laughing, drinking, and ghost hunting? Apparently it’s a convent. Yes, that’s right, a convent…and a working one too!

The weekend was planned long in advance but trying to find a cheap place to stay for only one night is not very easy in York, so we opted to stay in the rather charming Bar Convent. It is, in fact, England’s oldest convent but in recent years they’ve started offering bed and breakfast accommodation and also run a cafe. My single room was very small, as you might imagine a nun’s cell to be, but it had everything you expect to find in a hotel room and was warm and comfortable. I would not hesitate to stay there again or recommend it and I don’t believe I have ever stayed anywhere so spotlessly clean. Before we arrived, there had been talk of packing wimples but actually, we didn’t knowingly see a single nun the whole time we were there!

For those who don’t know Kathryn, she’s definitely a Richard Armitage fan, and she writes fan fiction too!
And yes, I’ve seen Sir Peter’s video. Commentary coming soon. : D

Thanks Frenz! I’m hugely flattered you reblogged this…and a link to my Wattpad stuff too! To say I’m an RA fan is possibly an understatement! Lol!
My pleasure. I think the whole thing is cool from Twitter right down to your nun’s cell.
I love Kathryn’s fanfic on wattpad.
Thanks Gracie – always good to know someone enjoys reading it xx
