    An exceptionally nice B&B in a very beautiful historical building. We had a room with our own balcony ("the Captain's Room"), which we can really recommend. There is also a communal sitting room and access to tea and coffee at any time of the day....

It was home to two Premieres, the late Honourable Joseph Ghiz and Premiere Robert Ghiz.

Elegant guest rooms, either with a queen or two twin beds, hardwood floors, private jacuzzi tub bathrooms, television, DVD’s, wireless internet, and A/C.
