We were in room 6 which was a family room at the top of the building. (Not suitable for anyone with mobility issues) The room was lovely decorated and very clean, facilities very good, it was also very warm and comfortable bed... The house was quiet and we had a lovely stay, near city centre.

This was a fabulous place to stay. First of all there was the lovely surprise when we arrived - a wee dram. That's a first for us. The room was gorgeous and the house is in a great location for the town and public transport. Our hosts could not have been more friendly or helpful. Breakfast was wonderful.
