Outstanding older home. Good to not flush toilets at night as they make quite a noise but that is the way it is in older places. Showers not the greatest especially for those with longer hair but again this is the way it is in most places. Pillows were great, bed was great, breakfast was great, room was beautiful and bathroom was beautiful. Nice detail to furnishings and sitting areas. Highly recommend for a very cozy comfortable stay.

The location is great, many food options, pubs, and things to see all within easy walking distance. There isn't a pull off for unloading and parking is not on site. Overall it is a great place to stay!
