Very nice guest house on a beautiful property on a quiet street. It was about 30 minute walk to the square, not bad, though some areas of the walk did not have sidewalks but the shoulders are wide. The shower is a little odd and I don't think I'd want to use it to wash long thick hair, but it's good for a general wash over r weekend. Would definitely stay here again.
