You can park on the next street but only for 2 hours during the daytime. Stairs in the cottage are really steep but there is a bannister, though the toilet is downstairs. Quiet street, even though you're in the town centre. Central heating is super efficient and plenty of storage. Could do with some new pillows as they're a bit flat.
