All bedrooms on second floor and could be a struggle for seniors. The cottage was fabulous in every way and I would highly recommend. Beautifully decorated and fitted for all. Parking accessibility was a big bonus for us as we had family coming to visit and we did not have to be concerned with street parking. Outdoor space was lovely if the weather would have been nicer.

Great 2 week stay with the family. Well appointed and spacious. Great location, walking distance to Cathedral, pubs, shops and restaurants. A nice mix of modern and traditional interior. Would definitely return.
