Nice and close to town. Unfortunately we had a room tucked away in the corner and our outlook was another building, it made the room very dark. Also our room was under the kitchen/reception and all we heard in the morning was the sound of stiletto heels on the floor above, very annoying when trying to sleep in. The staff were lovely and friendly and you couldn't bet the location, just ask for a room with a view or not one of another building if possible.
