West Wing, two bedroom apartment 21 | Private kitchen

"We had a weekend stay in the Lord Lyon’s Apartment and it was perfect - much bigger than we expected (the photos don’t do it justice) and had everything we needed. It was in the middle of January but the rooms were always warm. The bedroom at the back of tte building meant no street noise.
