Spacious and attractive decor with good views. Slight negative is that the stairs could benefit from an extra handrail or grab handles as very steep

Well equipped kitchen with welcome extras. Centrally located and ideal for our family get together. Maeveâs Tearoom under the property was perfect for breakfast. No private parking and some steep steps but I would definitely recommend this property.
