Good sized bedrooms, cozy living area, all the necessary amenities and everything worked (although the TV was a bit tricky). Great location for the town. We had an enjoyable stay here.

As it's not part of the 'front row' of houses, it was more peaceful than we'd anticipated. The proximity of the trainline was not an issue either as, only 6 trains run through the day and, they're not belting through either. A great location for hiking out and, plenty of food and drink options nearby from simple cafe fare to more extravagant choices.
