Great Location and Excellent Breakfast

well kept guest housecomfortable bedunspoilt viewtasty breakfast
The guest house is well kept and spotlessly clean. My bed was so comfortable. The room on the top floor attic had lovely unspoilt views. The railway station was a five minute walk. The cooked breakfast was delicious and very tasty.
The walls were very thin. The place was noisy.
