“Tucked just off the promenade on the peaceful North Shore, this guest house offers a calm escape from the busy centre. The Tower is only a 20-minute stroll away, making it a handy base. Rooms were spotless and nicely furnished, and the breakfast had plenty of choice. Friendly, welcoming service throughout – it ticks every box.”
