Me and my daughter stayed her for a few days.
we had such a lovely time we could find no faults with the white Rose.
Graham and his wife where very welcoming and full of great advise. We parked our car up on the next street from the b&b and there it stayed till we went home.
we used an all day saver on the bus which was great advice from Graham. We were a short walk to the town, where we found a great pub call the Crafty Baa, please go you will not regret it. :-).
we will be going again in the new year.

Good cosy little guest house, booked online and couldn't fault the communication from our hosts The Molloys. Lovely couple, welcoming and informative. Rooms comfortable and serviced daily, spotlessly clean. Tea and coffee in rooms, didn't have breakfast ourselves but smelt delicious. On road parking is a bit of a lottery as to getting a place, but the carpark off the main street has capacity for the many guest houses along the street. Enjoyed our stay, great base for touring, close enough to walk to pubs restaurants and shops.
