Our room looked recently decorated, was cleaned to the highest standard and had everything there that a visitor could possibly want. The couple who run this bed and breakfast are friendly and knowledgable about the area, and the breakfast they provided was cooked with local produce and was delicious. There was private parking for our car to the side of the property, and The Red Townhouse is approximately seven to ten minutes walk from the town centre.
