Wattle Cottage is very charming and the whole place was extremely clean and tidy. There was everything needed for a comfortable stay. Amenities nearby were excellent including shopping, restaurants, bars and heritage sites. Also a lovely park with a cafe nearby. Communication with the owner was 5 star. Would stay here again and would certainly recommend it to others.

unique property furnished with character to a very high standard.Parking outside property very short distance to main road. The road is cobbled and not in a good state or repair. Watch those alloy wheels - fine if you have a 4x 4
