Lovely and comfortable stay at Carmichael, the hosts were very friendly and knowledgeable and the location was ideal as we were looking for somewhere peaceful to stay with great public transport links in to the city centre. Breakfast plentiful and delicious, we looked forward to filling up each morning! Our stay was a mixture of sightseeing and my husband taking a language exam and the good news is we just found out he passed. Would recommend this B&B, many thanks again :)
