A cute and interesting old building. While the stay could use modernisation it was quite adequate especially considering the price. The town itself is beautiful and the food at the local pub was terrific. The spa worked well in the quirky bathroom and the woodfire in the loungeroom was good.Only real criticism is that the cleaner good try vacuuming between the couch cushions and the freezer in the fridge could use the occasional defrosting.We enjoyed ourselves and would go back again.
