My friend and I LOVED staying at City Centre Thatched Cottage! The location was perfect - it's a quick walk to the tourist center of the city, but there's plenty to do within 4 minutes of the cottage! We went to Hooked (great seafood), The Crane (amazing live trad music), The Beer Haus (it's across the street) and Massimo (delicious lunch), but there are so many other places to try, too... we wish we could've stayed longer! A further walk away (7 whole minutes), Cava Bodega is a great tapas restaurant, as is Il Vicolo. It's really the perfect home base for exploring the city.
The cottage was clean with great heating and a modern enough kitchen and bathroom, but it is old and has a winding staircase, which is definitely a part of the charm! It's even more adorable in person than in pictures! The beds are extremely comfortable and if you need anything, Karen answers messages almost immediately! We couldn't have had a better experience. A word of warning to very tall people... you will have to duck! And if you can't do steps comfortably, the staircase could be a lot. Everyone else... you'll love it here!
