Fantastic area, beautiful scenery, peaceful and quiet.The Old Post Office has everything on the one floor. So for an older person to navigate it was brilliant, a wet shower room was also top notch. Snug and warm with all the mod cons. Central to a lot of places to visit, which we did with our Westie Wilson.
