On our arrival we were greated by Bernie, who treated us as old friends and promptly offered us some of his fantastic home made cake. We stayed in Room 1, with a... More

Toiletries are provided as is a bathrobe.... More

In today's world where the expectations of many are for over-sized suites, large T.V's and Jacuzzi baths, it means a great deal to us when our guests rate us so highly based purely on what we have to offer ... Clean, Comfortable Accommodation, good food and topped off with warm, traditional B&B Hospitality. Thank you. More

The Cartwheel is close walking distance to everything in town, yet it is on a quiet street. The house is very clean and the breakfasts were wonderful. Tina helped us plan our stay and her advice...
