Boffin Lodge is within a 5 minute walk from the Quay where there are several good eating places/bars (ie The Helm), and to the wooded walking path to Westport House. It is a longer hike into the main center of town where things are REALLY congested. Despite being on a main road to the Quay, we found the room to be quiet. The breakfast options are good, and the breakfast room is bright and charming. Our assigned table was near the french doors where we were entertained by the chickens. Overall a good landing spot for a few days.
