Dusty House is a clean , comfortable and quirky 18th century Town House it has been sympathetically restored and has retained its character but still having all the mod cons you would expect. The kitchen is well equipped with everything you need. The two bedrooms are tastefully decorated and the larger of the two rooms which we stopped in has an extremely large and comfortable bed with high quality bed linen. The bathroom albeit small has everything you need and a heated towel rail and extractor fan which are both ideal. The property comes with its own secure garage which fitted our VW Passat in perfectly. An ideal property if you want to be in walking distance to all the shops, pubs, restaurants and local amenities.

Quirky house with steep steps but we knew that. Clean and comfortable plus lots of hidden items in the kitchen cupboards. Central location to pubs bars shops and nearby leisure centre
