What travellers are saying
- timetorelaxnowExmouth, UK5 contributionsWow! What an incredible place! The cathedral is breathtaking and the free audio guide for adults and children makes this a really special experience.
Our 10yr & 5yr old were enthralled by the children’s guide. It was perfectly timed with the adult guide so we all moved around the cathedral together. My husband and I actually got to enjoy a complete tour uninterrupted for the first time in years! 😂💪

- WagoneerConestoga, PA1,183 contributionsThis small square is ringed with outdoor cafes and is a busy place when they are in operation. Some of the buildings were undergoing renovation when we were present but that had minimal impact on the plaza and its activity.
This plaza is small and intimate.Written 15 July 2019This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
