Good location- owner very friendly and helpful

Not en-suite but that’s not their fault, probably my misreading info as the location was the priority

What a beautiful unique place to stay. Quaint and Quirky is exactly this. From the lovely gardens full of flowers and herbs to the interior of the house, which has to be seen, it is unlike anything I have stayed at before or will again. The host Justine couldn't have been more nice or helpful. I urge you to come and stay at Quaint and Quirky as its truly a one off a kind, the prices per night are quite cheap for the town centre location and for the experience. Thank you Justine for making my stay a very pleasurable one.

Absolutely nothing at all.

What a wonderful and very quirky place to stay!! Its no wonder the reviews are so very high, as this place is so very different to what's out there. The room is beautiful and well presented, with lots of facilities. The house itself is very clean and looked after. It is very comfortable and homely. Justine the host was very helpful and informative. Highly recommend and I will be back in the future.
