    Breakfast was delicious. Homemade compotes from fruit from the garden. Delicious hot cooked meal. Location was good. The house is located on a busy street but it was very quiet inside. We walked into town and back. Probably less than a mile.

    A quaint B&B run by a lovely couple who were extremely helpful. They also offered a pick-up service to/from the airport. Also went out their way to help us purchase a new suitcase. Location was within easy walking distance of the city centre. ...
