Justine is a great host and made us feel very welcome. The property is easy to reach from the town centre and was an ideal base for our weekend visit. Also, it turned out that a great workmate of mine is her immediate neighbour!

Centrally located. Amenable to support storing cold food. Clean.
The room was cluttered, not enough room to place suitcases on the floor. The room was certainly big enough, but it had too many large items in it making it cluttered and uncomfortable. Too many signs in the room containing rules one of which was that the room will be inspected prior to exiting the property. Although respect was big on the agenda, I'm afraid it fell short especially when confronted with the host inappropriately dressed in the morning. There was no parking out the front which was expected due to the location of the property being in the centre of town however we were told that parking was only .70p. This cost was from 6pm until 6am so this was inaccurate as we were not going to move the car before 6am. We ended up paying an extra 4.20p until 6pm the following day.

As the name says, it really is Quaint and Quirky. What you have to know is this a home, not a hotel, so you have a have a very comfortable double bed in a lovely room, a good pub on the corner of the street.

The place is exactly as on photos. A wonderful pub is just nearby.
There is no private toilet for the room. The room is on the first floor, the toilet is on the ground flor.

I travelled across country to empty my mums flat in 24 hours, I was an exhausted wreck by the time I’d got to quant and quirky,
I was made to feel most welcome by the hosts who went above and beyond, helping and checking if the was anything I needed or help with anything,
The photo’s really don’t do this property justice.. The room was lovely and relaxing, Netflix on the tv eating an ordered Chinese take away
I had a really good nights sleep, first sleep in 48 hours, woke feeling refreshed ready for my long long journey home again..
Even after care was amazing as I’d lost an item on my way home, I thought I’d left it in the room but Justine searched and they were no where to be seen..
I cannot rate Justine and husband enough as they were both amazing- thank you 🥰

The house was quaint and very quirky and Justine was an excellent host. The house was only a short walk away from my son's house, the reason for my visit.

Location was superb. Very comfortable bed. But best of all, Justine and her partner looked after us exquisitely well. Super accommodating, approachable and down to earth.
Will 100% be staying here again the next time we come up.
Oh and there is a great pub literally next door.

Come to stay for graduation week.
The host, Justine, was very friendly and helpful, and guided around the house.
The house is decorated warmingly, and provided a small fridge in the room.
Although the house is relatively cold is nature, but the bed is set up with electric blanket that made it warm and cosy to sleep on.
The house is located about 7min walk to the town centre which made is very assessible for public transports and shopping.
