    Ideal location, near the centre but very peaceful and quiet. Comfy bed and very clean room. The host was friendly and went way out as there were lovely treats as in biscuits in the room and cake later on when you came in. Water and fresh milk daily to help yourself from the fridge. Breakfast cooked to perfection, we would definitely stay here again.

    Nice hotel... I just think the prices are too high... If they brought the prices in line with some of the more affordable guest houses they may find themselves getting more bookings, i certainly would but always nust above my budget. Lovely hotel, good location and great breakfast so would recommend if you can afford it. Thanks
