    “It was a proper cottage & the owners had kept the character very well. Everything was as described & I was most impressed to find a teapot in the cupboard. No squashing teabags. We would be very happy to visit again.”

The town grew up around its castle, a Norman fortress dating back to 1071. Within the town, narrow streets and alleys radiate from the cobbled Market Place (which has a weekly market and monthly farmers’ market) and there are numerous shops, pubs and restaurants to enjoy. The Georgian Theatre is one of the oldest surviving theatres in the country with visitors enjoying its regular productions all year round.
