This is a decent guest house not too far from the centre (20 mins). It is a bit dated but more than comfortable. We stayed in the twin room at the top, the private bathroom was separate but spacious and modern. Breakfast was basic and the coffee atrocious but again, it was ok. This property is cheaper than others on the same street and we found the price to reflect the level of accommodation

Delighted with my stay! Simple but very quiet & clean single en-suite room (No.3 on 1st floor) overlooking the rear garden. Nice selection of breakfast options, pleasant manager(s) with excellent & speedy communication, parking outside, & the ‘Old Town’ within walking distance. Thanks Duncan & Mei: you’ll be my first choice the next time I visit.

To describe the property and room as basic would be an exaggeration. The only redeeming factor was the breakfast.
