Shirley's home is quiet, comfortable and well equipped. It's not posh, and the decor is very dated. BUT it's totally silent; fabulous considering it's on the main road and therefore so easy to get to and from. And I had such a good sleep in the comfortable, warm bed. Shirley's dinner recommendation (Tonic) was on point, and I appreciated her happily bringing down some ice for pre dinner drinks. This was a great escape away for two friends as we each had plenty of space to relax.
