A great little B&B - lovely room and spotlessly clean. Breakfast is proper and cooked to order. Host is most welcoming. Ideal for the harbour area restaurants and bars.

Beautiful room, interaction with owners was polite and minimal and we felt comfortable during our stay, met the owner in person when leaving and she was very lovely.
