amazing quirky getaway!

vintage decor oat milk short walk
I adored the quirky, vintage decor , made it unlike any other place i've stayed (the antiques were a real treat!). i also really appreciated the oat milk provided each morning. It made my coffee perfect. the location was fab, giving me very nice views. it was just a short walk to town.
the stairs were a bit of a challenge, especially since there is no lift. it wasn't a deal breaker, but definitely something to consider if you have mobility issues.
