Lovely quiet location not far from town

Lovely B&B, on a nice quiet street but only 10 mins walk to town. Friendly staff. Can't comment on breakfast as we didn't have it, friends did and said it was good. Only niggle I have was that the shower in our room wasn't very powerful so I was quite cold whilst in the shower.
