    Nothing to do with the property, but the street numbering is unique, going consecutive accending order on one side (1,2,3...) & descending order on the other (50,49,...).

    Really friendly host and qwerky room in.the roof, that brings with it a very narrow and twisty set of stairs, which makes it impractical for large or heavy luggage. Great continental breakfast with the host, and enjoyed the chat.

    Nothing really. Parking is on the street and dependent on a space being available, but that all worked and the street is very quiet. Upper stairs to bedrooms are steep which could be difficult for someone with mobility problems, but worked perfectly well otherwise.

    Christel was an excellent host - very interesting to talk to and knowledgeable about the area. Breakfast was fine and the room was well appointed and spotlessly clean and tidy.

    Christel was a perfect host; warm friendly and receptive. Our room, was comfortable and clean. The bathroom was next to our room and a hot soak in the bath very welcome after a long day. There was lots of local information in the room and Christel was also very helpful about places to visit etc We thought this was a great place to stay.

    Loved everything about our stay at this property. Host was very welcoming and friendly. Room, facilities, cleanliness and everything about our stay was exceptional. Breakfast was very good, it was not a cooked full breakfast but we didn't want one, so suited us. I will go back hopefully sooner rather than later.

    Lovely clean unfussy room. Excellent breakfast with a range of delicious homemade jams. Friendly and welcoming host. NB the house numbering in the street is a little idiosyncratic - lower numbers further up the hill and a few gaps.

    A television in the room would have been nice to catch up with the news, but free WiFi was available which sufficed.

    Room was warm clean and modern with some lovely stylish touches. Breakfast was good but maybe not 'hearty' enough for a full days cycling. However Christel was happy to microwave a sachet of instant porridge I had taken if I had wanted it. Property was a bit of a trek uphill from town, but nothing a couple of pints couldn't deal with, but this meant lovely views and an easy start to the second day of the c2c. There is a secure garage for bike storage and Christel was friendly knowledgeable and helpful.

    Not much. It was as expected and well placed in the price range.

    The location of the B&B is up a significant hill so if you are walking please be aware. The B&B is on the 3rd floor of a residential house and has a shared bathroom and toilet which is perfectly clean and tidy. In the morning breakfast was served around the kitchen table allowing you to talk to the host and the other guests which was wonderful and I had a particularly enjoyable and engaging conversation with the host over shared interests.

    The breakfast was excellent - warm croissants with homemade jams and granola. The house was a short walk from the town centre in a very quiet street. There is a fantastic view over the hills from the bedrooms.
