Fodor's Review:

A large Georgian town house has been tastefully converted into a cheerful guesthouse, with an array of facilities (but no bar or restaurant) that would do a hotel proud. The quiet residential location is only a short walk from the town center, and adjacent to the town's three churches, the bells of which merrily ring the hours. Guest rooms are large, pleasantly decorated in the Georgian style, with mustard-yellow spreads and drapes, wing armchairs, and good-size bathrooms. The warm welcome and friendly touring advice from owner-manager Maureen Tierney and her team, good parking facilities (in a town where spaces can be hard to find), and excellent value make this a popular spot with regular visitors (many of whom are golfers). Pros: private parking; quiet location; amazingly attentive service. Cons: no restaurant; no bar.
