Darwin's Townhouse

The house was lovely, spotlessly clean and extremely well equipped. The staff were lovely and helpful and breakfast was great. The produce was high quality, locally sourced, plentiful and well cooked. The house was very cute and it was obvious that all fixtures and fittings were of a high standard. The location was perfect for exploring the town and we walked everywhere.

I had booked a garden room as my partner doesn't sleep well, so I thought this may be quieter as it was overlooking the gardens. This was not available on the day of our stay, so we had a room in the main house and our room was opposite a pub. This meant we had lots of noise from passers by and people smoking and talking outside the pub. As the property has traditional sash windows, we could hear word for word conversations. I discussed this with the member of staff on check out who apologised but didn't offer any other solution. The room was much smaller than expected from the pictures on here, so I don't feel I got value for money.

Exceptionally friendly staff. Great location. Lovely honesty bar/communal spaces.

Shower unit could have been better.
