On arrival we received a very warm and friendly welcoming from the staff who also ensured that we were comfortable and happy. The Guest house is neat, and has a homely but luxurious feel.

Once I entered I was approached by the owner Mrs. McManus, which immediately gave a very good impression. The staff presented itself, and also gave a very nice and friendly impression. The premises are impressive, both in color, maintenance, and furnishings. I was given the \Colonial Room\" which is facing the...
