A very comfortable and clean studio, ideal for a couple, just a few minutes walk into the town. We loved the outlook onto the river and walks we were able to do without using the car. Being so close to the town, there is no shortage of pubs or eateries, we were spoiled for choice. If we are ever in the area again, would definitely try and stay in the studio, we couldn't fault it, just perfect.
