Lovely 350 year old house beautifully and sensitively restored. Quirky and full of character. Fantastic central location, but very quiet with no noise from road or bars as it's set back at the rear of other houses. Lovely walled garden. Nice touches from the owners, including leaving wine and milk. Highly recommended, I'd happily stay here again.
