The property is a little old and tired. Beds were comfortable, kitchen was adequate. Location was great, easy to find. Linen bit worn out. Little squishy for family of 4, but acceptable if your days are busy and just need somewhere to sleep.

We were in Room 4 at the back. Just like a converted sleepout, not much room to move. Facilities were fine, just a bit cramped.

The house itself was charming but as two couples in their sixties who had booked the two bedroom self contained unit we were very disappointed. The fridge and dishes and TV were in the double bedroom and two single fold out beds in a closed in back porch with a small table and two chairs. it would have been good to have this made clear in the booking.

old world accommodation
Old world accommodation,,very well renovated. There was no reception, received email giving me instructions how to get key from a safe. Room was comfortable. Had the use of a shared kitchen. Continental breakfast provided. A little bit noisy as the cottage is in the middle of town centre. Good wifi.

Heritage property, well set up. I would think that room No. 3 would be the best room for a couple. Not facing the street, and walk in shower.

Quaint old cottage house right on main street in town. Being an old house & our booking being a family room set up out on the back verandah, being all that was available at the time, we found it very cramped even as a couple only. Cannot imagine staying in this set up with two other people or children & their luggage. Shower is over a bath & dangerous for children or seniors as no anti slip mat provided. We did not realise house was booked out to 4 bookings all allocated their own lockable sleeping space & shower in each bedroom. Other than that, main areas inside front of house at passage & kitchen are well set up, owner & cleaners friendly & good access to all amenities in town. Road noise during business hours.
